For lunch I made No Peekie Stew. I will tell you how to cook this very easy recipe. It only has a few ingredients. It’s good for leftovers, if you only have a few people eating, and it smells heavenly while it’s cooking. (more…)

Today I was walking down the garden path. I almost didn’t see this red rosebud. Seems a near miracle after the 30 degree low nightly temperature we just had. But there it is. (more…)
