I am happy to announce that I have not let my RSS reader get out of control again this week. In fact, for about 5 minutes during the middle of the week I achieved the ultimate RSS reader goal – ZERO unread items. It was very short-lived, but I enjoyed it while it lasted.
So, now [...]

Black Bean and Corn Quesadillas
This appears to be one of very few years that a groundhog has accurately predicted 6 more weeks of winter. At least, he was right about the first few weeks! We’ve had more snow in the past week and a half than we usually do in an entire winter.
While I may lose readers (and possibly [...]
Sweet and Smokey Corn Chowder
Often when I am trying to think of something to make for dinner, I start with a particular ingredient… like my very own Iron Chef challenge for one! Tonight’s secret ingredient? Corn.
We picked up our CSA share today, and it contained four ears of corn. Unfortunately, there has been an issue with earworms on the [...]
Mexican Cucumber Salad
I don’t know about you, but when it’s hot and humid in the summer, the last thing I want to do is cook on the stove or use the oven. With the amount of delicious fresh produce I have been getting from our CSA and our garden, I have been able to make a [...]
Introducing Tips & Tricks…
Every once in a while, as I am working in my kitchen, I realize that I have what I consider to be a good kitchen tip to share… It’s not that I’m brilliant, not by a long shot. It’s usually just that I stumble across something by accident, and I think to myself, “perhaps this is [...]

It’s been fun to discover a few new blogs and read all of the great recipes! I am always amazed and inspired by the creative recipes I discover each week [...]
Roasted Corn Quesadillas
Each time I make quesadillas, I am reminded of one of my favorite movies..
Napoleon: “Well what’s there to eat?”
Grandma: “Knock it off, Napoleon, make yourself a dang quesadilla!”
Napoleon: “Fine!”
I have probably seen that movie 50 times, but I still laugh every time I watch it. And, I annoy everyone I know with quotes [...]
Tex Mex Lettuce Wraps
I would love to say that I had some great inspiration to make this dinner. On the contrary, I decided to make this for dinner tonight because flank steak was on sale (buy one get one free!) at the store today. My first instinct with flank steak was to make fajitas, but I wanted something [...]
Friday Favorites – Episode 11
Happy Friday, everyone!
I am having difficulty focusing today because my new DSLR (Canon 50D) is scheduled to be delivered today! According to the UPS site, it was put on the truck for delivery at 7:08am this morning.
I am really excited to finally have an SLR again. I took photography in high school and used my dad’s [...]
Friday Favorites – Episode 9
I originally wrote this post last evening, trying to sneak it in in the few minutes before it turned to Saturday. However, my site went down right as I went to publish it. That will teach me to leave my Friday Favorites to the last minute! For the second week in a row, I am [...]
