I feel like there’s less and less new things to highlight in my kitchen with each passing month. I can’t just highlight the last farm bag no matter how great it was. Honestly, The Hubs seems to be cooking more on his outdoor griddle than I am cooking in my kitchen. (The griddle was highlighted . . . → Read More: “In My Kitchen” May 2023

The March film for Movies & Munchies is Hidden Figures. Wendy from A Day in the Life of the Farm is hosting.
I had not seen this film so I was anxious to dig in. Mom and I watched it over Spring Break. I was glad that Wendy mentioned there wasn’t a lot of food . . . → Read More: Cookies with a Kick for Hidden Figures and Movies & Munchies

There wasn’t a lot of foodie inspiration in this month’s Movies & Munchie feature. I was inspired by the Ikea scene. If you haven’t seen this movie, it is a a cute, clever and poignant film about relationships. (Notice I didn’t say it was a rom-com.) . . . → Read More: (500) Days of Summer and Swedish Meatballs
