When I think back of my grandma this dish is the first thing that pops into my head because my brother and I always begged for it. Heck to this day we still beg mom to make it and I know more than once we have threatened not to show up at key holidays unless […]
Guess who is back errrr….guess who has been so lazy to post but now has a massive backlog of blog posts?
I do have a legitimate excuse this time because I have been on business travel in Colorado Springs. We spent a lot of time working but did manage to get out the one day to […]
If you would have told me a month ago I would be getting fresh tomatoes I probably would have laughed at you because this has been a horrible tomato year for me. It started with 11 tomato plants (10 of them in raised beds and 1 little guy in a container on my back patio). […]

I have also noticed […]
Before I start this post I must say a quick prayer to the coffee gods. I am running on lack of sleep and my level of insanity is not all there. This post could have the world’s worst introduction so bear with me. I will try to bring it together near the end or at […]
