Are you one to make New Year’s Resolutions? January 1st has that “clean slate” feel to it, so why not? Depending on how resolutions are made, people can be successful if goals are planned well and they have a good support system in place. In 2015, these were the Top Ten New Year’s Resolutions: TOP […]
The temperature was a perfect 18 degrees in a Winter Wonderland. We had recently received three different blessings of 3-5 inches of snow. I had recently told my son Alex, age 25, “no gifts, this Christmas, I just want quality time with you.” He is an independent young man who works all day, then goes ice […]
Last night, in my own personal preparation for Veteran’s Day, I watched the movie, “Flags of our Fathers”, a movie centered around the World War II attack on Iwo Jima. Seven thousand Americans died in this battle, and almost all of the Japanese defenders died as well. So much death, so much fighting, so much […]
On this last day of October, how stocked are you for the trick -or-treaters? Or do you have to run out to the store again because your stash has been gobbled up not by goblins but by “taste testers” such as yourself? Don’t worry, I’m not pointing fingers… at anyone but myself! Although I only […]
We had our first frost the other night, yes in September! I’m so glad I harvested most of my tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, and potatoes the last two weekends. Even though I have a rather small garden, I have been turning the excess into a winter stash. I don’t have enough to can, so I blanch and roast my […]

My heirloom tomatoes are coming in so fast, I now have a tummy ache and the start of canker sores in my mouth from the acid. I find myself eating them as I pick them, eating them as I see them, eating them as I open the fridge and eye the bowl. They are like […]
I was weeding yesterday, the day before, and the day before. I was IN the dirt! I was happy to see some flowers on my cucumber plants. So how can it be that today, I found these two cucumbers, a long green Asian cucumber and a short, plump Mini-White Cucumber, both fully grown and ready to be plucked? Did […]
Here’s one of three radishes that my small garden produced… and yes, this is the end of it! Radishes are not my forte as you can see. Now before you think I really blew it and forgot to make it red, take it easy. It is a white radish, and that was intentional. This was the first product of my […]
Every Monday I take three young adults frolfing. Or do we go frolicking? Sometimes I have so much fun, I feel like a dancing fairy in the forest! We start by choosing our weapons. J. likes “The Reaper” disc so he can warn the others, “FEAR the Reaper!” before he sends his sailing. S. likes the red disc because […]
