I have been a little quieter than normal online lately. A few less posts and a lot less on social media. Life has been busy. Two weeks ago I was rear ended by a semi truck. I am fine. My son who was with me is fine. The short version of the story is that I came to a full and complete stop at a […]

I hope you had a great 4th of July!! We enjoyed that delicious peach cobbler with homemade ice cream. I will share both recipes next week. We actually had a quiet 4th of July. Which was perfectly fine with me. We had some friends over Sunday night for food, fun, and a few fireworks, but the actual 4th was a stay at home and relax […]

I need to start today with an apology. If you read my post on Wednesday for waffles I am sorry about the typos in it. Apparently I was not fully awake when I wrote the post for Gluten Free Belgian Waffles and I didn’t know the difference between belgian and belgium… And not only did I write Belgium instead of belgian, I did it several […]

It has been about a month since I did an everyday adventures post, so I thought is was time to do one again. I love these posts where I share random everyday life stuff. My husband and I made a quick trip to Oregon on Memorial Day weekend. We were supposed to take a week long family vacation to the west coast, but that didn’t […]

Occasionally I make lunch for the staff meeting at my husband’s office. This week was the week I needed to make it. Last week I mentioned that life had been a little crazy, so I kept it easy with the lunch this time. This is what I took. I just bought meat, cheese, and chicken salad from Costco to make it easy. The recipe for […]

My daughter recently made those cupcakes and they were so good! She used my gluten free mayonnaise cake for the batter and my chocolate frosting recipe for the frosting. The frosting is an example of how much blogging and online recipes have changed. The frosting recipe is a recipe I shared just a couple of months after I started blogging way back in 2008. It […]

I took this picture Sunday as my husband and I were returning from a walk. We had to cut the walk short because storms were coming in. The combination of the storms and the sunset though were quite a sight. I shared the picture and this on Instagram. Light in the middle of this stormy Sunday. Sometimes it is easy to see and others times […]

We spent the two last week rearranging our upstairs in order to give our girls their own bedrooms. They have shared a room their entire lives. In general, it has worked well and they have gotten along. But with both girls taking college classes and working, they are often on different schedules. One will be getting up early to go to work and the other […]

The last few weeks have been crazy. I had a bad flare up of my asthma and then before I was completely back to feeling normal, I ended up making a trip to Oregon for a funeral It took two and half weeks for me to feel better from my asthma flare up. This flare up hit me harder than I have been hit in […]

These muffins were so good! Look for the recipe coming soon! I posted this picture of my fridge on Instagram earlier this week, but I decided to keep it real and share it here too. Because I like to keep it real and make you all feel better, I will totally admit that last night my husband ate something long past the date it should […]
