When I decided to start and plant my garden this spring, I asked my family what they would like to see planted. I mean, after all, they were going to be reaping the rewards too. At that point in the day, I think that we were eating lunch (or dinner… but we were definitely eating)…
It is that time of the year… Peaches!! They are in full supply. I love peaches. They are so great to eat as is or you can can them for later. Like the dead of winter when you are wanting that zesty, sweet taste of summer. There are 2 ways to can, we’ll get to…
I really think I should start calling it social distancing or homebound or something other than coronavirus. Ugh! Earlier this year I went on the Keto Diet. Right now, I say screw that. We’re really supposed to stay home and out of stores, etc. So buying all the extra, special items to make Keto meals…
Over the weekend I found myself in Gravette, Arkansas. We were at a BBQ Smoking contest called Smoke on the Border. I’ll delve into that more in another post, but… as Hubby and Jared were moving stuff down on Friday afternoon, I found myself in the kitchen. I had it in my head I wanted…

It is… but it’s happening up in the attic where you just don’t see results other than more lights are popping up as well as electrical plugins….
Another birthday cake! Yey, I love birthday’s!! Although… the story about this cake… The person who I made this cake for apparently doesn’t celebrate birthdays anymore… I didn’t get to try any. I was told it was yummy. Life took over and I was afraid I wouldn’t get it to them on their birthday I’ve…
What is the deal with everyone wanting Chocolate Birthday Cake? Seriously… haha. Okay, let’s back up and I’ll explain. Tbug’s birthday is the 2nd of January. Then my father-in-law’s birthday is the 9th of January. Bam, 2 in a row. When I asked her what she wanted, it was a yellow cake with chocolate icing….
I’m not sure when or how this happened, but she decided to turn 16 on me. WHAT?!?! I feel old, trust me! She was 6 when she came into my life. I was 19 when she was born. She’s 16 now. HOLY CRAP! Yes, I just said that. Last month I asked her what kind…
