Blogging from my heart in Boise, Idaho & Realtor® Fathom Realty
I have been getting my eggs from Rockin’ R Ranch in Kuna, about 18 miles from where I live in Boise. A friend has a system where a group of us order on Mondays and pick the eggs up on Wednesdays. Recently I bought 2 dozen, why I don’t know. The abundance of eggs inspired... Continue Reading →

I was given a batch of peppers from a friend’s garden that were too hot for their family. After a bit of research, we found that they were Baron Poblano peppers. So, I deseeded them and dehydrated them. I should have taken a picture of the French canning jar I stored them in, the colors... Continue Reading →
I voted early, even hand delivered my ballot so I could get my "I Voted" sticker. I had one from the 2020 Election, which was the 100th anniversary of the 19th Amendment granting American women the right to vote. What about you? Have you voted? #Vote #VoteToSaveDemocracy #VotingMatters
