Blogging from my heart in Boise, Idaho
Craving a comfort food sort of meal, I purchased a beautiful chuck roast. Problem was I did not want to make the same ole same ole beef roast recipe full of too much sodium. 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 →
My tomato plants have been pulled and what was green has slowly ripened for one last pot of marinara sauce. I made a pot of it last week and froze it, then vacuum sealed it to take with me for another trip to Southern California. I'm going to help my sister pack her house and wish her well for...

I added a few blogs to my Reader preferences in Word Press. Lastly, I watered my neighbor’s... Continue Reading →
I used to be a Pinterest Foodie addict. Pinning late at night, pinning early in the morning. The daytime hours had to be for career activities, but the Pinterest button on my add-ons bar beckoned me mercilessly. Thousands of pins later, I am so over that now. I am much for selective and spend less... Continue Reading →
I have to admit, I LOVE lemon anything. I tried this dressing last weekend with miso. Don't get me wrong, it was delicious. However, I felt making the taste simple would just be a better result. I was right, once again. Insert smile here 🙂 Oh, and I make enough to last a week or... Continue Reading →
Some days, I just have to have a bowl of fresh pasta. I know, the gluten thing. I'm here to tell you that King Arthur or Bob's Red Mill are the best hands down, but if you are going to have to use a gluten free flour, I highly recommend Manini's. I have made so... Continue Reading →
I do not care for zucchini bread, probably because I just do not like nutmeg. Sorry, it is a deterrent when it comes to those zucchini breads, carrot cake and pumpkin pie. NO thank you. In order to determine a way to use up a boat load of yellow squash I was the recipient of... Continue Reading →
