FIVE minutes. That is all you need to have HOT apple cider sitting on your kitchen counter!! Here is how you do it: I love icing… but not the weather kind! The weather service predicts more ice here today, so we will be inside with a long weekend. Now I get to do some experiments …
Book: I finished the 750 pages of “Alexander Hamilton” by Ron Chernow. I loved it so much I now have his new book “Washington” as well which is 800 pages! But it goes by quickly and written so well that the length is really no bother. Chernow found 50 new essays that had not been …
Firstly, I wanted to wish you all a very Merry Christmas. No, I am not blogging on Christmas morning 🙂 These blog posts are usually written and then scheduled for the morning. Some of us are busy. Some of us may finally have the time to sit and read a blog post instead of …
Thanksgiving is here! Here is the Menu: One, We will be making this turkey again. It is the best and we just can’t change it. I have started roasting it in an oven bag, too. It doesn’t get the skin as crispy, but no one here eats the skin that much anyway. Make this turkey! …

Without that industrialization, we couldn’t live on 2% of farming familites or feed ourselves pasta from Italy. Louise Fresco points not to the American …
Happy Sunday Everyone!! I read a great article via Facebook and thought I would link to it and create a my own photo saying of it. Maybe most moms need to hang it up in their kitchens? 🙂 Maybe I’ll make a canvas… 🙂 Recipe: This is one of my FAVORITE breakfasts ever!! I had …
Book Update: I finally finished a book! Good golly it’s been like 3 months. Anyway, I read the book Michael Connely’s “The Gods of Guilt”. It was a typical Michael Connely book – fun, twists and turns, fast paced. If you haven’t read one then start with “The Lincoln Lawyer”. And, no I …
