Holy man it has been forever since my last post! Most of you know that I was out sick for a loooong time! I will likely tell you all about it in a post, but not right now. Not today.

The other day I was laying in bed and this recipe popped into my head. Ever happen to you? Some of my best ideas come when I least expect them! We had gone to a burger joint a few weeks ago and I had this amazing guacamole burger! But, as usual, it was huge…I could only eat half of it! And it was loaded with … Continue reading California Turkey *Bacon* Burgers
Did you know that spider plants multiply? It’s true! They grow little buds that can be snipped and potted to grow into another plant! Ok, maybe this is yesterday’s news since there are actually quite a few plants that can multiply themselves….or be split into two or more plants. But I have a spider, and I had to snip some buds, so that is what … Continue reading Breeding Spiders {Plants}

Ingredients: Print this recipe! 6-7 red potatoes, chopped 1 large onion, … Continue reading Slow Cooker Potato Soup
I have cycles, just as the seasons do, and Spring is about the time that I feel I need to muck out my house! I want to rid anything that is weighing us down….out with all the junk, clean out all the unused stuff, get organized with the stuff I want to keep, and clean clean clean! This is usually the same time that I … Continue reading Spring Into Home Projects
I didn’t realize I even liked asparagus until a few years ago! I hated it when I was young, so I just never tried it again! Well, until I did. And I liked it! This is my favorite way to make asparagus! I like my asparagus to be tender but not soggy, and steaming it always seems to end up on the soggy side. This … Continue reading Roasted Asparagus
When J and I were in Paris, we were treated to an amazing authentic French dinner in which the opening course was a fluffy flakey quiche! It was so scrumptious! We have been wanting it again! So for Valentine’s Day I decided to make a special breakfast and try to make a quiche! This was not planned, so I just went with what I had … Continue reading Simple "Make it your way" Quiche

My dad had a big component stereo system and was really into the rock of the time…Steve Miller Band, Styx, Duran Duran, and Don Henley.
