You could pick whatever holiday movie suits your fancy—the favorite that the fam watches every year, a classic, or even something from your archives.

I used to watch the Food Network 24-7. Then we got rid of cable about ten years. I really don’t know anything about the stars of that network now. So, while I obviously knew Valerie from my youth and watching her prime time on One Day at a Time, I did not know she hosted . . . → Read More: Cookbook Review: Indulge: Delicious and Decadent Dishes to Enjoy and Share by Valerie Bertinelli One comment - (Comments are closed) Cookbook Review, What we're growing, eating, and doing.

We made it through May and all the tornado outbreaks. (I think I said something similar to surviving April.) Again, I grew up in tornado alley; I remember nights spent in cellars. We have dodged some crazy weather and have been extremely lucky. Thankful. This month, I’m just going to revisit May’s posts and some . . . → Read More: “In My Kitchen” June 2024 
Spring has sprung and with it has been some hellacious storms. I hope wherever you are that you and yours are safe. Hope we get past this extreme weather soon. I grew up in tornado alley, but good grief, these new breeds of storms are deadly and destructive. Be safe out there. I hate to . . . → Read More: May 2024 “In My Kitchen” |
