TToT – Back From My Break
A friend recently told me that she wasn’t aware I was taking a break from posting here. Neither was I. But it seems that’s exactly what I’ve done. Other than my TToT posts, the last few weeks have indeed been something of a blogging break here. It’s not a bad thing and I’m not apologizing…
TToT – Fast Pass Edition
How is it possible that a week has gone by so incredibly slow and incredibly fast at the same time? And then the weekend did the same thing? It was Friday afternoon like five seconds ago…how is it Sunday evening already? Since we’re down to the wire here, I’m jumping in on the tail end…
TToT – Light from Darkness
As I was putting together my list of Thankfuls for the week, I realized that there was something of a theme at work. We’ve had several “darker” moments this week – things that just haven’t been the most positive or haven’t gone quite the way we would have liked. But in several instances, a positive…
Traditions Old and New
Tradition – the transmission of customs or beliefs from generation to generation, or the fact of being passed on in this way. When we think of traditions, it is easy to think of things that have been handed down for many generations. Tradition is the way we’ve always done things. But traditions had to start…
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…
Every Day Love
I’ve been thinking a lot about love the last couple of days. For starters, there’s that rather large and obvious thing called Valentine’s Day that has just passed us by. Kinda can’t miss that. Love it or hate it, there it is. I can’t say we’re huge fans of Valentine’s Day here. We’re not huge…
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…
