A friend asked me for my recipe for Stuffed Bell Peppers a couple of weeks ago. I realized I had not made them since I did that post. So, I decided I’d mix it up a little and try something different with the recipe. Instead of 2/3 cup of onion, I used an entire onion [...]

Stress Reliever. Had To Be Done.
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged Bubble Bath, Stress Relief on January 27, 2011 | 6 Comments »
There was a time when I would just scream at the top of my lungs, right where I sat or stood, then say to those around me, “Stress reliever. Had to be done.” This would get me some nasty looks. If only they knew that it really kept me from punching anyone close [...]

I have give myself some kudos. I’ve become more of an adventuresome eater/foodie since changing my diet over a year ago. Foods I previously wouldn’t touch or didn’t like I find myself trying and liking now. I even put lima beans in the pot pie I made last week and didn’t mind them at all. [...]

It’s the time of year when I make a lot of soups and stews to keep me warm. Making my own broth makes it simple and easy to do. Especially when you have leftovers to play with. If you think about it and you tend to stock your fridge with veggies like I do, you [...]

I was about 3 in this picture. One of my uncles had just graduated and my grandfather bought a goat to celebrate. My aunties and uncles decided to introduce me to the goat and as you can see, they got me to ride it. They told me it was the new family pet. I decided [...]

There are many things I should be doing right now. Trying for a nap, AGAIN, like the other tries were so helpful today. Take care of laundry. Oh wait, that was just the washer that just chimed. Not the dryer. Taking a bath since I work tonight, a whole FOUR hours. Sometimes I [...]

I really wanted to do a post on the soap I just made yesterday. Alas, I could not find the USB cord to upload my pictures to the computer. This place is a disaster and it could be anywhere. So, I figured I should blog on some of the food I’ve been making, [...]
