Holiday meals

Cooking a large meal for family can be as easy or difficult as we want to make it. If all the homeowner has to do is make the main course (Turkey, Ham, etc.) and everyone else in the family brings the side dishes, this works really well. Now remember what was said about as hard or easy as we want to... Sign in to see full entry.

Holiday baking

Hi, are all of you thinking of those wonderful treats we make around the holidays. I just wish I had the time to make all that I want, but alas I must decide where to spend my time. I think this year I will make some Divinity. Have you experienced this awesome treat? My mother and Aunt use to make... Sign in to see full entry.

Fall and Winter

This is the time of year when food just beckons me. And I want comfort food, which is to say if allowed I would be very fat before the holidays and a New Year’s Resolution is even close to what is necessary to take off those pounds. For me the answer is increased exercise, that does not mean it... Sign in to see full entry.

This week in review

Looking back over the comments of the last few days, I see that most of us like the winter months for the time to write, read, and be enchanted by the beautiful weather. I must agree, although I would like to live somewhere that snow is not driven on, no snowplows and there is sledding and so forth.... Sign in to see full entry.

Winter Activities

I was listening to someone yesterday who said that when winter gets here we are to use that time to reinvest in our knowledge base. Apparently it is the time we are supposed to be inside and rather than build our brawn, build our brain. I’m a reader and although I really am not a fan of winter... Sign in to see full entry.

Celebrating Friends

One of the topics I do not touch on often enough is celebrating friends. Where would we be if not for our friends? You know who I am talking about the tried and true, the silver and gold, the true blue. We are not alone one this earth or in our home towns (cities); rather we depend on people around...

Me time during this time of year

All the festivals are great, but this is also the time of year to begin looking for a nice place to curl up with a good book, a craft or movie on a rainy windy afternoon. I don’t do this very often and when I do it is a special treat, just having some down time for me. Each one of the above can be a... Sign in to see full entry.

Holiday Festivals

OK so fall is officially here. Now is the time that all the festivals start and they can be so much fun. Last weekend in Seattle was the NW Chocolate Festival. I can be lost there for a very long time. It is like going to heaven. There are more festivals which will now start cascading down on us;... Sign in to see full entry.

Thank you for reading this blog. I know sometimes it is fun to read and other times, I hope thought provoking. It does seem ashamed that we don't spend more time getting to know our neighbors and our community. Perhaps this is an evolution, to something more acceptable. I read and enjoy all the...

Fall fun

Oh do you remember those days when it was getting cooler out and we could see the spider weds in the sunlight with dew on them. That was the same time of the year for me when there were corn mazes to walk in and pumpkins to pick and carve. I really enjoyed the harvest time. Especially going into a... Sign in to see full entry.
