Tomatoes Are Grate
I’ve got kind of a buzz going. My head is in a cloud and I’m having a hard time focusing. I have taken so many hits lately; I even have the munchies. No. I am not taking drugs….legal or recently legalized in some states. (Seriously, I am anti-drugs….hugs not drugs is my motto!) I am …
Giving the Hamilton Beach Wave Action Blender a Whirl
Most of the smaller appliances in my kitchen were wedding gifts. I love when I use them because I remember the excitement of that time and the fun of being a newlywed. The problem is that I’ve been married almost 17 years. I am happy that I have been married for so many years (to …
Who Wants To Claim My Tikka Masala
We are always in a process of learning. We can be listening to the radio, reading a book or even while watching TV; our brains love to absorb something new. (They are like the sponges you buy in a warehouse store!) I try to keep my brain happy and give it new information every day. …
A Piñata, Patience and Pound Cake
I have not written a post for over a week. I have to admit, I haven’t written because I’ve been kind of angry. I don’t feel well….again. It is rare that I have a pity party that lasts more than a day but this one I’ve had trouble shaking. Just as my energy started to …

Know Your Food, Support Your Farmers

Prairie Grass Cafe & Chef Sarah Stegner
Ooooo. Aaaaahhhh. OOOOooo. Aaaaah. Did you make a lot of those sounds this weekend as you watched fireworks? I love Ooooo and Aaaaahhh moments. They are moments that not only light up your eyes but they light up your heart. I had an Ooooo/Aaahhhh moment last week that had nothing to do with fireworks but …
Time to Ketchup
Helllllooo July! I can’t believe you are here are here already. I haven’t had a chance to picnic or go to the beach. I haven’t gotten one tomato out of the garden and I’ve only worn shorts a couple of times. My patio furniture is still in storage and my hammock is all rolled up. …
Rainy Days and Mondays….
“Talkin’ to myself and feelin’ old Sometimes I’d like to quit Nothin’ ever seems to fit Hangin’ around Nothin’ to do but frown Rainy days and Mondays always get me down” I have never felt more like singing this song by The Carpenters than today. The day started like a usual workday for us. He …
