Nefarious. Nefarious? I know I have heard that word before but I wasn’t positive of the meaning. There is a commercial on television that uses that word. Kudos to an advertising group that uses words with more than three syllables! It was kind of refreshing for me to hear a word and have to look …

Side Dish
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 …
Ramping Up My Spring Dinners
This last week has definitely felt like spring to me. I wake up to the birds chirping happy melodies, the trees are displaying every shade of green and the sun just seems to be brighter. I can open a window and smell the freshness only a spring breeze can provide and the temperature is neither …
All I am I am Saying is Give Snow Peas a Chance
I love epiphanies or what some call light bulb moments. You know what I’m talking about…those instances when you brain wakes and tells you the reasoning about feelings you have about something. It is like all of a sudden “POW” and a topic you’ve never understood finally makes sense. (When I have an epiphany, I …
Potatoes Au Gratin…More Fun than a Barrel of Monkeys
I am so happy it is October!!! September was exhausting and more fun than a barrel of monkeys. Wait…is a barrel of monkeys fun? Some monkeys are aggressive so there might be some tension in the barrel maybe even some poo throwing. So pretty much anything sounds better than a barrel of monkeys. If you …
The V Word
Sometimes when you write a blog, you have to talk about uncomfortable subjects. I dread having to write these types of posts but alas it is just a subject I can’t avoid much longer. I’m talking about the “V” word. Sigh. I’m not sure why I have such a hard time saying it. It is …
The Route to Brussels Sprouts
Have you ever met someone who is map impaired? If not, pleased to meet you. I can’t find a route on a map no matter how hard I try. I was thrilled when I got the PMS (Point Me System) in my car. It helped me get from here to there with little thought or …
Garlic Bread Paradise
Sometimes I surprise myself. Not the startling kind of surprise like saying boo to someone coming around the corner. (But I do like to do that.) It was more of the catching myself off guard kind of surprise when I wanted to make a different recipe for garlic bread. It wasn’t surprising that I was …
Understanding Garlic Bread
There are a lot of things I don’t understand…for example, maps and geography. (Or are those the same things? That is how much I don’t understand them.) Either way it is a subject matter that doesn’t click in my brain. I also don’t understand push-up bras. Why do you want to fill your bra with …
“Veruca Salt”ed Double Baked Potatoes
“Gooses! Geeses! I want my geese to lay gold eggs for Easter.” (Who knows where I am going with this one?) I was scrubbing potatoes today and all of a sudden was possessed by Veruca Salt from the 1971 movie, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. My original plan was just to have baked potatoes …
