TToT – A Whole Lotta Good
The sky was a glorious blue this morning and the breeze was just enough. It was the kind of day that always reminds me of an early summer at the beach – perfect. I felt pretty light as I drove alone with the moon roof open. It’s been a very good week. For starters, Zilla…
Soup of the Week – Philly Cheesesteak Edition
Philly cheesesteaks are not soup you say? Oh, yes they are now! OK, really they aren’t. And in fact, this recipe isn’t even a soup – it’s a stew. But believe me when Philly cheesesteaks meet Soup of the Week night, it’s a terrific pairing. Enter Philly Cheesesteak Stew from The Cozy Apron. I found this…
Soup of the Week – Corn Soup with Roasted Corn Guacamole
I am happy once again to give you a Soup of the Week that has come from a dear reader – thanks to Sarah at Amycake and the Dude for this week’s recipe. We actually tried this about two weeks ago and then I got distracted by the two batches of homemade chicken noodle soup…
TToT – Sick Tea and Chicken Soup Edition
The flu is running rampant in our state. At least that’s what the news keeps telling me. I wasn’t sure it was true, but then it decided to rear its ugly little head in our house. At work on Monday, I was certain I was coming down with something – by the time I got home,…
Ten Things of Thankful – Thawing Out and Going Basic
No muse befriends, this week, really, friends – haven’t found much to post here. Maybe I’ve just been focusing my brain power on other projects this week. Anyway, better late than never, here is my list of thankfuls for the week. I am… Thankful that – for the moment at least – it is not snowing. Or…
German Fest in My Fridge
Ever have leftover CSA vegetables you didn’t know what to do with? In January? Yeah, this surprised me as well. But sure enough, just after New Year’s, I found myself staring at some leftover kohlrabi, turnip, and carrot and half of a huge head of purple cabbage. They were perfectly fine – wrap and package…
TToT – Snow and Ice Edition
Is it really the end of the week? I’m not sure exactly how that happened. Maybe it’s because we had a three day week again…snow days Thursday and Friday and here we are in the very wee hours of Saturday already. So yeah, I’m so not prepared for TToT yet. I think we’ll wing this…
He Cooks! – Homemade Pizza Edition
My Husband claims he is a kitchen disaster. I wouldn’t exactly call him a disaster. But his skill level in the kitchen is not terribly high. Although I really do think he shortchanges himself quite a bit. The Fab Hub has become an expert smoothie maker and he assembles lunch for me and Kidzilla every…
Soup of the Week – Cream of Mushroom
This week’s soup is no-frills easy, friends. I found a recipe for Easy Cream of Mushroom on Pinterest recently and realized it had been quite some time since I had a good bowl of cream of mushroom soup. Cream of mushroom is one of my favorites – provided it’s not the stuff from a can.…
Soup of the Week – Italian Wedding Soup Redux
Know what I did last week? I made Italian wedding soup – spur of the moment and without having to hit the grocery store or break a sweat. I even had homemade chicken broth at the ready just waiting to be put to use! (More on that homemade broth stuff later.) It was Tuesday night,…
