Finding Fabulous Food, Photos and Crafts to Share
I have spent the past few evenings making cookies for “Amerikids” the musical. It is a play Wentzville Christian Church is performing this Sunday at 6pm. And…. there are cookies afterwards! The musical talent is awesome. Plus, it’s free! I will take some more detailed photos and explain how to do the cookies step by …
Happy Mother’s Day! I was just watching Netflix Ted Talks again. One talk was heralding how great white bread is due to the fact that it represents our industrialization of food. 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 …
Book: No time to read! I am working in the sound booth for “Meet Me in St. Louis” at Wentzville Christian Church. Come see us! It is May 1st at 7pm and May 2nd at 2pm and 7pm. How much does it cost? It’s free! But really good. It isn’t one of those free musicals …
Whew! So I finally have a kitchen again that has more than 2 drawers, but with that comes LOTS of moving and unpacking. Bonus – I didn’t have to exercise because I was moving furniture! I love practical and functional in one 🙂 So here are the rooms I have done so far in the …

Or why some companies make the choices they do? This book explains a lot and explains how things that are contagious belong to one or …
Recipe: I wanted a lemony cookies for my birthday and found this recipe on the Food Network with 894 five star reviews. Since I had leftover ricotta cheese from my Caprese Lasagna, I wanted to use up the rest before it went bad. These cookies were kid approved! Maddox loved putting the lemon icing on …
Life Update: I had an amazing turnout for the Wildtree party and it took me TWO hours just to put the orders in. Best party I have ever had – even after selling Pampered Chef! Who doesn’t need groceries? I bought a few extra things from Wildtree that I wanted and they were REALLY good. …
Book Update: I’m in chapter 6 of Positive Psychology and though no through the entire chapter, the one about social support is really interesting. Basically, social support during good times and bad times actually nearly trumped “not smoking” in indicators of well-being. I’m not saying go out and smoke… but just that social support was …
These were fantastic and we again ate them all in 2 days. For a crowd, I would suggest way more than 12. Each of us had 2-3 the first day. I actually like this combo better than the lemon blueberry yogurt muffins, but it is much more difficult (it seemed) to work with folding raspberries …
Pucker up because these are tart, sweet and delicious! Many times I see these out and they have come from the Krusteez Lemon Bars Box. They are yummy and fast. But now looking at the ingredients, you find every Yellow # on the planet it seems, Palm Oil, and Partially Hydrogenated oils. Here is how …
