Controversy. I was talking to a friend last week and finally pinpointed why I haven’t felt like blogging and it is all because of controversy.

Bean There. Done That.
Happy Friday Everyone…or for some of us does it matter what day it is because they are all running together? I will admit that I am pretty good at knowing the days of the week because of my television habits. I’m not sure if that is something to brag about….I know the days of the week….what’s on …
Muffuletta Deviled Eggs
With everything going on in the world today, it is kind of nice to have things that are part of your “old” normal routine. Whether you have a certain day you wash the sheets or a soup you eat every Monday, it gives you a sense of control over a life that is currently uncontrollable. I’ve …

Have a Tart
I have a confession. So far, this year has not been one of my favorites….maybe you could tell because I haven’t been writing as much. It started off on a couple of really hard notes that made the winter end with a snowstorm of emotion. The spring was consumed with dog training and my days were …
