Spinach Quiche

Spinach Quiche and Giveaway #2

I had just put my pie crust in the oven to prebake for a spinach quiche when my friend Gina texted me and said, “Look what we’re having for brunch – broccoli and turkey sausage quiche.” I’m cracking up because my plans for the blog and my quiche looked a little something like this. Gina […]

Nineteen Trips Around the Sun

Davis successfully came skidding around the sun one more time and reached his 19th birthday!  Happy birthday to a creative, sweet, funny, smart guy!  Lots of love to my little Doodlebug! We first met for dinner at LaParilla in Rome. Mikayla joined the frolic.  My attempts to chronicle the evening were met with this…. and […]

Savory Supper Grits and Butterless Biscuits

Tonight I made an “interesting” dinner of grits, baked beans, biscuits,  a fresh pear, and radishes.  I personally thought the dinner items complemented each other but in actuality I guess they probably didn’t.  One of the perks of living alone is that it doesn’t matter what you eat.  Or when you eat or where you […]

Pear Salad and Spinning

I tried my hand a spinning yesterday.  It looks like I tried my feet instead of my hands because my thread was so uneven.  Our lovely teacher Melody said that my clumpy yarn is called Artisan Yarn and it’s okay to be uneven. She’s very gracious. I love it whether it’s Artisanal or Awful.  It’s […]

Beet Fail

Beet Fail

Sad to say my dehydrated beet salvage did not work.  To get you up to speed, I bought an organic beet two days ago.  I tried to dehydrate it to make crispy beet chips.  They were teeth-breakingly tough. Then, I read a recipe where they dehydrated vegetables and chopped them up to make a crunch […]

Why I Don't Garden

This is Why I Don’t Garden

I planted pansies this year thinking I might beautify my property and give it the ever so important curb appeal.  I planted them in deck baskets with coconut hair… I put them in pots. And I put them in hanging planters. A feast for the eye at many levels. My curb appeal lasted about two […]

Weaving and a Subscriber Giveaway

I’m not ready to start a weaving cottage industry but I am having fun making zippy little purses out of the cloth I have been weaving in my class.  I am fortunate to have a weaving teacher living in my neighborhood.  Once a week I have been weaving wonderful masterpieces of cloth.  (Or at least […]

Garlic Herb Spread

I had one last package of cream cheese remaining from Sam’s Club. I bought a rather large box of them around New Years and most were turned into experimental cheese cakes by the ManCave Dwellers downstairs.  Olivia led the band of boys in creating cheesecakes such as Peach Cobbler Cheesecake and Red Velvet Cheesecake.  Their […]
