Meatless Monday! A Few Ideas!

My family is pretty much “meatless” every day of the week, with the exception of pizza night for my husband and older son(they always have pepperoni, but it’s uncured so there are no nitrates or nitrites) and I usually try to prepare fish once a week, which my husband doesn’t like so he gets a […]

It’s Our Anniversary!

My husband and I have an anniversary coming up and depending on who you ask we have been married for 18 years or about five years.  Those who consider themselves funny say five because we got married on a leap year, February 29, 1992, to be exact.  At the time, it seemed like a good idea because […]

Got Juice!

I have a juicer. It is one of my most favorite kitchen gadgets. I love that when I want fresh, organic juice I can simply make it myself. It had been far too long since the last time I made a juice and my body needs it so this morning I threw one together and […]
