my new favorite spot is the corner seat on my balcony where I can see just about all there is to see, including my mini balcony garden. I’m growing some basil, mint, cilantro along with some d e l i c i o u s lettuce and the cutest of strawberries. of course at the […]

new life.
well friends, it’s been a while. *checks calendar* yep, almost a year! I’m sitting in a new apartment, and hey, if you’re keeping track, this is our fifteenth move since 2009! this one, though, is finally starting to feel like home. we overlook the lake and a bunch of green–the effect of which cannot be […]
summer breakfast
It’s hot. Summer is hot, proven by my social media feed filled with people posting photos of their car thermometers or screenshots of their weather apps. (do you remember winter….and the ice and snow? yeah, me too.) It’s that wake up hot, …go to bed hot, kind of hot. If you’re like me and you […]
spring.
supposedly it landed here in ohio a few weeks ago, but we’ve only had a smattering of warm days in which to get us in the mood. we’ve also now entered the rainy month(s) “april showers bring may flowers” usually means it won’t stop raining until somewhere around June 1st. so it’s time to be […]
snack time.
I’ve been benefiting greatly from the use of essential oils lately, and sharing them with my friends and family to help them has become one of the best benefits. from helping my little nephew find a solution to his tummy aches, to the awesome sight of my brother in law inhaling peppermint oil for the […]
starting a new plan.
We started a new diet around here this week, and a big part of it is giving up sugar. If you’ve ever done this, then you know it is not easy. Another aspect of the new plan is no grains, no dairy. This part; not so tough. Except I do like a little bread with my […]
here comes fall, pumpkin scones.
I’ve been away for a while, sorry about that…but I’ve been under the weather. I have another genetic condition, hemochromatosis, and due to some oversights by people who should have been more careful I ended up very exhausted for the past six weeks. But, I’m slowly feeling better…and better means baking! Fall always brings pumpkin […]
comforting cornbread.
It used to be when I was turning the corner of recovering from something, be it a migraine, or a bout of the flu, or a bad personal experience, I knew I was getting better when I would have a craving for one thing. Spaghetti and meat sauce from a certain local Italian eatery. […]
ginger lemonade.
Lately I find myself craving ginger in any form. I think it started when we bought a juicer and I discovered the wonders of orange/carrot/ginger juice (a must have now on a daily basis) The spiciness of the ginger adds a refreshing zing and helps settle my stomach as well. Last night I whipped up […]
a carnival and some blueberries.
This weekend started out like any other, no real fun plans; until I remembered that within walking distance of our new apartment was the annual city carnival. Funnel cakes! (no!) Beer tent! (no!) Corn Dogs! (no!) But we could ride the ferris wheel…eat kettle corn and have some fresh lemonade, all of which we did. After […]
