Adventures in the kitchen
I’ve read the Game of Thrones series. Twice. I really enjoy them, and I was trying to bide my time until the next book in the series came out. Oh poor, naive Jo. Can we please please please have the next one? Pretty please? I’ve […]
You all know that I hate the cold. I would take 97F over -25F EVERY. TIME. And spending two hours shoveling my driveway, while a great workout, is not my idea of time well-spent. But I have to say, getting a four-day weekend is pretty […]
I love making pizza. I have this magical bread machine that makes the pizza crust for me. It’s so fluffy! I highly recommend getting a bread machine. Even if all you ever use it for is pizza dough, it’s totally worth it. I do stray […]
I’m not sure what happened to all of my cookies. These lasted all of two hours before they vanished. I restrained myself from eating the dough, which was no easy feat. And they definitely came out of the oven… They made it to the cooling […]

How on earth has another year passed already? You know what is the biggest difference between last year and this year? My child, my amazing child, is READING HIS OWN BIRTHDAY CARDS!! Obviously that’s not the only difference this last year has made, but I’d […]
Then I don’t know what is. I know I haven’t posted anything in awhile. And while I’m kind of sorry about that, I also really enjoyed the downtime. I took some time to take photos just for fun. And because I wasn’t trying to get […]
Remember those bacon things? Sometimes I like to mix it up, without having to work or think too hard. Quick and easy, same steps, sweet not savory. Should I be calling these apple turnovers? That just doesn’t seem like something I’d do. Call something by […]
