We are gearing up for the annual Seabury Craft’s Fair held annually the Saturday before Mother’s Day. And what does this have to do with a food blog? Well, duh, somebody has to feed the boys so they can do their work! Had a lot of prep work for the fair in terms of our […]
So we went all day with no real Mexican food and it just seemed wrong. I know Cinco de Mayo is not a real Mexican celebration, although is does commemorate one battle’s victory, having grown up in California it was always noted. It was time for an afternoon snack (that actually was filling enough for […]
Well, Thanksgiving is just around the corner and that means turkey and all the trimmings. Turkey is best when it has been brined for a couple of days. This helps to make the turkey really moist. You can get as creative as you want with your brine. Just start with the basics – salt and […]
Family reunions can be very stressful. Having to plan for more than just your immediate family can cause all sorts of problems. You know it has been said, “If you fail to plan, you plan to fail.” , and that’s what is at the root of most stressful get togethers. My problem is, that once […]

Also had some toast with honey and coconut oil. Being in my fifties, I have been hounded lately from medical practitioners to […]
Had a rough night getting comfortable. Is it the full moon or did my back really bother me more. Who’s to know. I’m thinking if I get the lawn mowed today it will be an easy job. It hasn’t rained too much this week and I got the real thick stuff tamed last week. Well, […]
Well this is turning out to be quite the busy day. We need to get downtown to do an on location shoot so this kind of cuts into the morning routine. By the time we actually got outside to walk Roxie, we only had time to walk up to the highway and back (just shy […]
