Well, I am here at home on a Sunday night with NO ideas for my blog, recipe I concocted was a disaster (will work on this), attitude is down (worked on this over weekend) and business is tough. Where to begin??? Let’s go with the recipe first. I had a hankering for a hash brown... Continue Reading →
Tribute to Ruth Bader Ginsburg #RBGstrong
As I drove home Friday afternoon from a week on the Washington coast, a notification popped up on my iPhone. All I saw was the name Ginsburg and I knew. I was in the middle of literally nowhere in eastern Washington, and that meant not enough bars to pull over and click the link. I... Continue Reading →
My Favorite Quotes That Resonate #BeTheChange
Something hit me this weekend, what was it? It dawned on me that I was longing for a pick me up. Something other than my hikes with Murphy, something other than creating a new recipe. Something other than what I was doing. I think I am in a COVID state of weariness. However, it soon... Continue Reading →
How About Being Positive? #RespectEachOther
I am beginning to wonder if Americans are no longer shocked by what they hear: they either believe one way or completely another way. Are we no longer paying attention or are we grappling with the onslaught of negativity? Why have we become unmotivated or procrastinators in our daily lives? Is it COVID19 or is... Continue Reading →

Anger levels at a peak that is not going to diminish this time. Amid so much sorrow, there is evidence of solidarity from protests... Continue Reading →
America is Intolerant. What Will You Do About It? #BeTheChange
The tribal nature of the anger in America will suffocate us if we do not collectively change our community, our daily lives, our online lives. I have given this thought all week. The panel on Meet the Press at the end of the show last weekend on March 17th was just about that. They discussed... Continue Reading →
America Is My Country, Too #LetsTalk
Perhaps some of you do not know the story of how I came to land in Idaho. It’s a good time to share this story…… My Mom used to tell the story that I never got up and walked but rather I just got up one day and ran. If that was true, it is... Continue Reading →
Two Week Hiatus, Self-Direction #MuchNeededBreak
Not really, well sort of. My former laptop took a nose dive and eventually the hard drive failed, but thankfully after my data had been salvaged. Then, another few days to transfer data as it was before. Getting a new computer is only as good as how much one can transfer and how much you... Continue Reading →
I Have Hope for America Now #AmericaDeservesBetter
What a weekend we just had in America! What turbulent times we are living in this country every day. Every week we are watching history before our very eyes. Let’s focus on the good for a change, shall we? Students of all ages are speaking out for gun sense laws, marching for a change in... Continue Reading →
