TToT – Thanksgiving Thankfulness

As I started to put this post together, it occurred to me that writing a thankful list at Thanksgiving was no different than any other week. Mission accomplished, I guess! If by listing the things we are thankful for each week, we’ve created a mindset where we no longer see giving thanks as a once-a-year…

Soup of the Week – Autumn Vegetable

I know, I know. It’s cold and it’s snowing. It feels like winter, not late autumn. But I promise you this autumn vegetable soup will warm you up from head to toe and from the inside out! I am not a big fan of traditional vegetable soup. I don’t know why because I do love…

TToT – Short and Sweet

Well, I had grand plans of being ready to go with this post on Friday afternoon. Don’t know what happened. Yes, I do. I’ve been denying that I’m having an RA flare for about three days now. I’m moving slowly. I just need to make up my mind to acknowledge it and get through it.…

What I Learned from Eggs

My Daughter asked for eggs for breakfast this morning. She did it completely right, too. She decided last night that she wanted eggs for breakfast this morning. She asked politely if someone would make her eggs for breakfast. She even specified the preparation method – hard-boiled, please. Well done, Zilla! But despite the advance notice,…

TToT – Post-iversary!

TToT – Lazy and Late

I am late to the party this week. We’ve had a very lazy weekend and I kinda want to get back to that since the next few will keep us hopping! But I’m going to get this in under the wire, thanks to Dyanne for giving me a little poke.

TToT – Community

The Fab Hub rolled his eyes and sighed at me when I told him I didn’t know if I had ten things for my list this week. I’m not really sure when my husband the cynic became my husband the positive thinker. But the gesture did serve to make me realize that hearing those words out…

Soup of the Week – Pureed Broccoli Soup

Good things come to those who wait, right? Thanks for waiting for this week’s soup! I really did not think to plan ahead for this post. Well, I did – I decided I would make broccoli soup, but I did not exactly set aside time to actually make it. But I know you’ll forgive me because…

Soup of the Week – Green Soup

Ever have a whole lot of veggies left in your refrigerator that need to be used or else end up in the garbage can? That happens here sometimes. Not often, thankfully, because we really are good vegetable eaters here. But every now and then, especially with a CSA share, we end up with more of…
