Life is too short to not be myself…
I don't know about you, but I've been needing a little escape from all the ... craziness in the world (well, mostly the United States). It's been overwhelming and exhausting. So the other DD and I took a Christmas break! Yep, we just did Christmas all day. We baked cookies, we ate cookies, we drank... Continue Reading →
I had a BIG birthday last month. Yep, I am now 50 years young. You may be thinking... "ahh... that's why she's been struggling!" Nope. That's not it. It's a million other things that I don't feel like I am able to share on this platform. Turning 50 has actually been great. In fact, it's... Continue Reading →
The last few weeks, I've been kind of soul searching. Kind of trying to find myself again spiritually. I've been feeling a bit lost... not sure who I am, where I want to be, even what exactly I believe! This soul searching has moved me away from my computer, from social media. I've been reading,...

This weekend, we took a trip to the farmer's market and boy, did we eat good! We are terrible about not ever getting around to doing stuff. DH always had school work to do and I always have church work to do so we often just hang out at home. It's a very boring life... Continue Reading →
So much fun! That's what we had on the next day's adventure. DH had some time off so I rode in with him and sat in the car for a while waiting on him. Yep, we're that couple... the one that sends selfies to each other when we are waiting around. Anyway, after about an hour... Continue Reading →
I've been cooking for one a lot recently and that's something I struggle with sometimes. It's funny to me how sometimes, it's so easy and then other times... not so much. Oh, I don't struggle so much with the cooking part as I do with the planning part... What do I cook? How do... Continue Reading →
So last September, I found out that my cholesterol was high. The doctor immediately wanted to put me on medication to get it under control. I had feared this for a while. It's in my genes. No chemicals for me, please. I didn't want to take any pills. No chemicals for me, please. I had... Continue Reading →
This weekend I took my mom to see DD’s performance in Cinderella. It was wonderful and of course, she was beautiful. She amazes me every day. Her bravery, her talent, her determination. I ask myself all the time, “How did YOU raise kids like this?” They are both just amazing people.She didn’t have a lot... Continue Reading →
In my post Wednesday, I mentioned that I was going to make some zucchini bread, and I actually did AND… It was pretty good. It’s an old recipe I found 2006 from a blogger friend, Ask The Helpful Housewife, aka Leanne Roman. I don’t think she blogs much anymore but I did find the old post... Continue Reading →
Good morning! It's 8:13 a.m. where I am and I already feel productive. I decided I would treat myself for breakfast today and it was yummy! Now, this isn't a cooking blog by any means. I don't make my own recipes (at least not to share) and I don't take the best photos of my... Continue Reading →
