Blogging from my heart in Boise, Idaho
These days, I am constantly laughing at myself. I really did want to be a comedienne back in the day. Now, as a Realtor, I can still make people laugh so that their real estate process is fun, less stress. And, my friends? They know they will always have a fun time listening to my...

Ok I have a confession to make. My sister and I don't like turkey. So, we did an Italian pot roast in a slow cooker on Thanksgiving day. She swears by the 12 hour rule, but we did a 4.25 pound roast on low for 6 hours and then high for 2 hours. Was absolutely... Continue Reading →

This Carne Guisada popped up in a search, and me being me, I had to tweak what I found to satisfy my yearnings.... Continue Reading →
I went through a very old, tattered file folder Saturday night that had printed recipes from a collection of 20 years. Now, I either save recipes to Pinterest or pdf the recipe I find online. I found Diner Meat Loaf Muffins from Cooking Light, and quickly realized that there is a reason I gave away... Continue Reading →
Lately, at the end of the day I am wiped out. Keeping up with my real estate business, making sure my dog, Zeke, gets his two miles per day in. Oh, wait, maybe that’s for me, too! So, in rolls the holidays. Steady stream of holiday parties, meetings, events, and so forth. Living in Boise... Continue Reading →
If you are looking for an impressive way to serve wild caught salmon for the holidays, I am here to rescue you! Now, take into consideration that I harvested a shopping bag full of tarragon, so I took the time to figure out the measurements for a single batch. I also use this pesto with... Continue Reading →
