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.…

Soup of the Week – Homemade Cream of Mushroom

My Husband tells me that I second-guess myself too much. He’s probably right. Most often, I do my second-guessing in the kitchen. Is this really going to be enough for four people? That doesn’t seem like enough seasoning. Maybe the soup is too thin. And so I will very often make changes based on that bit…

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!

Smoothie Week – What’s Your Weirdest?

I’ve been drinking smoothies daily for about a year and a half. I can’t remember exactly why I started but I’m pretty sure it had something to do with an abundance of CSA vegetables and Pinterest. Put those two things together and you’ll find plenty of inspiration! This week Williams-Sonoma is celebrating Smoothie Week. The…

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 – 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…
