Bacon Basket

Bacon Basket

I’ve shown bacon baskets on the blog before but can you ever really have enough bacon? Most people would say no. I like bacon although I am trying to eat less of it.  You certainly don’t find it on any 10 most healthful foods list.  But when you grow up eating bacon, or any food […]

Graham Cracker Pie

Graham Cracker Pie

For me there is always one recipe in a book that sells that cookbook to me.  If I open the book and see a good one, then I will probably buy the book.  Basically I have a bunch of $10 and $20 dollar recipes because often I don’t make anything else out of the book. This recipe […]

Warm Springs Lunch and Shopping - Repeat

Warm Springs Lunch and Shopping – Repeat

(This is a repeat of the previous entry.  My pictures are sideways on the first one.  I will try again.) It is muggy, rainy, and foggy.  Perfect weather for shopping.  Sort of.    The good thing is that the stores aren’t super-crowded but the bad thing is… the rain, mugginess, and fog. We drove 40 […]

Warm Springs Lunch and Shopping

It is muggy, rainy, and foggy.  Perfect weather for shopping.  Sort of.    The good thing is that the stores aren’t super-crowded but the bad thing is… the rain, mugginess, and fog.
