Menu of the week Sept 29th
This week’s ingredient is almonds and the menu swap is hosted by Kimberly at Living Free. I was so busy yesterday that I didn’t have time to finish my blog for this week’s menu. So I am a bit late to the party. I will see if I can fit some almonds in somewhere. I […]
High Holy Food Magazine Day
That’s right, in terms of food and cooking magazines, it is the day I look forward to the most every year.
The Bon Appetit Thanksgiving issue is here! As many things as I dislike about Bon Appetit, the Thankgiving issue makes up for most of it. This also means that within days, the Gourmet Thanksgiving issue […]
Moss, leaves and rotten tree trunks = kittens!
Well this is mostly a food blog and this story starts with food and ends with kittens.

Menu of the Week: Peppers!
Living with someone who works at a library allows us a multitude of cook books. We have about 14 of them borrowed right now. So, we are trying to just pull something from each of them to try. It is a cook the book week of sorts. My sweetie pie has sudden inspiration after perusing […]
