you can’t tell me that won’t make an amazing stock How are you holding up? We are doing well though this morning made me “think” a little differently than my norm. I was about to make french toast and grabbed the dozen of eggs from the fridge and immediately thought; wow that’s going to use a lot of my eggs we should have something else. … Continue reading chicken and rice soup with homemade stock
I hope you are able to keep in good spirits during this trying time in our world. I know the local government in every state are having to make a lot of decisions they have never had to make in their lifetime as well as us as citizens.

We have been very busy but we are always busy so that’s no excuse. It might also have something to do with my stupid cough that is better but not completely gone. I start the … Continue reading Pasta Sausage Squash and Swiss Chard
The countdown to Claus is coming quick! I know it is because the calendar says so and I have an enormous tree in my bay window with presents under it.
