I completely missed writing a post for Meatless Monday last week. I hope you at least made an effort to get through the day without eating any meat. You really won’t wither away to nothing without it, I promise. This week I am sharing my absolute favorite Vegetarian Chili recipe with you. Not only is it […]
Autism Awareness – S is for Sibling
I am continuing with my Autism Awareness posts, which started with a brief description and my acronym for the word autism. If you missed my original post, you can read it here. I will never forget the day several years ago when my younger son very loudly declared, “I hate autism.” Now, as a protective Mom who wasn’t […]
Wordless Wednesday
Check out the size of that stinger! Also, it was alive and flew away on it’s own.
My Favorite Popcorn Recipe
My absolute favorite snack is popcorn. I love the crunch, the fact that I can eat a whole bowl and not feel guilty, and mostly, I love how inexpensive it is to buy. I get my organic yellow popcorn in the bulk bin at my local grocery store and usually you just can’t beat the price when buying from the bulk […]

Wordless Wednesday – Visit to the Goat Farm
We made the approximately 40 minute drive last fall for an “open” farm day to visit the goat farm where some of our favorite cheese comes from. From seeing the goats to the cheese making process, it was such a fun afternoon. I highly recommend this type of interaction if you can. Visiting and talking with someone who […]
