I will have to run out tomorrow to get the ingredients!

Here in PA we had a weird snowstorm last October while the leaves were still on the trees. The trees couldn't bear the weight and many of their branches just splintered off which left the woods...

So I'm not the only one! And even though I'm 30 pounds overweight, not a single pound settled there! I'm still an A. But I have found some nice stretchy sports bras that I live in.

Thanks for the belly laughs, Razz. I'm looking forward to visiting my twin granddaughters next month. I haven't seen them for a whole year, and they weren't talking much then. Now they are little...

My mother used to steam it and smother it with toasted buttered bread crumbs, and I still like it that way.

I haven't been here much in the last few years because I've just been too busy with illnesses in the family and the death of my mother. But I retired a week ago and now have the luxury of free time,...

Tussiemussies, I love gratefulness.org! I have been getting their word for the day for a long time now, and sometimes the quotations are amazingly synchronous with what's happening in my life. It...

Saturday: A picnic! Hard boiled eggs, carrot and celery sticks, cheddar cheese and crackers, hot chocolate in thermoses and the best home made apple pie.

Yesterday: Noodles with broccoli and...

Wow! What is tipsy laird?

I have a file box with 3 x 5 cards in it. On each card I have written the name of one of my standard go-to main dishes. I have about 40 of them. As I make something I put it at the back of the pile....

What a wonderful thing to do!

It comes from the fact that we are communal animals. We need each other for survival since we are very vulnerable if we are alone in the wilderness. If we don't share and cooperate we could be cast...

Are there any knitting blogs or websites that any of you recommend?

I think Alzheimers robs people of their sense of purpose along with other mental faculties. My father had a strong sense of purpose throughout most of his life. He spoke five or six languages and was...

We put the sofa cushions on it and put our feet up. There's a shelf underneath for magazines and books.

This is fascinating. I have a few questions, not to be nit picky, but I want to know how you do this... No shampoo? What about the books that you get with your gift certificates? Do you keep them?

Well they do make a pretty picture! Thanks for the link, puglogic. I'll look for them at my market.

And I thought this was about a beautiful painting of garlic from a distance ;)

Sounds good to me. I like anything garlic. But I've never had a garlic scape. I'm guessing they're like those things...

I would like to have the option of buying a "small gulp" at the minimart on my way home from work. Often when I'm looking for something to drink the only options are ridiculously large bottles of...

I would add Abandonment to Divine Providence by Jean-Pierre de Caussade. I've sometimes thought that it, along with Brother Lawrence and The Cloud might be the only three books I'd ever really need...

DH and I are going camping next week, and I am thinking about what to take. Truth is, we'll be staying in a cabin with a stove and refrigerator, so we aren't exactly roughing it. It will be chilly,...

Where are you?

Cream cheese and apple butter or jelly, especially good on raisin bread.

I love mine and use it once or twice a week. Today I used it to blend the ingredients for cheesecake bars. The other day I used it to make a clam dip.

I always add about a tablespoon of white vinegar. Somewhere I read that it draws the calcium out of the bones. And it should be gelatinous when it's cold. My stock is always cloudy and greyish. If...
