Blogging from my heart in Boise, Idaho & Realtor® Keller Williams Realty Boise
11 days ago, no wait, probably 30 days ago, I kept telling myself I was not scared. Multiple times a day. You know what? I really wasn’t scared of open-heart surgery. I was going to get fixed! Sure, it was going to hurt but I am too young to die so let’s do this! Then,... Continue Reading →
I posted the original recipe for my tomato jam two years ago in the fall. This weekend I changed a few ingredients and methods. Oh, and I added crisp bacon!! I did discover date syrup for this weekend's batch. A few years back, a good friend gave me a small jar of tomato jam. I... Continue Reading →
What a week I had! It was full of daunting decisions, long conversations, even longer hikes in the mornings in silence. On these hikes, I have noticed that most of the birds have moved on.

I have to admit, I am tired of hearing the “it is what it is” phrase. I hear this far too often. Why!!?? Are we giving up with that acknowledgement or are we giving in to what we cannot change? I think it don’t care for this phrase because I feel it is an unquestionable... Continue Reading →
I had a hankering for brussels sprouts yesterday, so much so that I drove to Trader Joe’s on a whim. My biggest decision was should I buy whole sprouts or shaved sprouts? I opted for whole because I wanted to make tacos. I must disclose that I could eat tacos every day. There, now you... Continue Reading →
