• Thanksgiving Meal Prep Poem

    Turkey’s roasting in a fast (425 degrees) oven Extra stuffing’s in the fridge Fireplace is burning, a red glow Green Bean casserole below turkey, wedged in. Bad rhyming. Goes with a busy morning. It’s all true, so it’s good rhyming, in my book ๐Ÿ™‚


  • Failure to roast

    I didn’t get my turkey’s roasted today. ๐Ÿ™ I woke up with a migraine and struggled just getting a couple of pumpkin pies made this morning, and the migraine hung in there getting worse mid-day, so I ended up laying down for awhile, after the pies were out of the oven already for a bit.…


  • Some Thankgiving Feast Prep

    Yesterday I blanched the green beans in prep for the green bean casserole for our Thanksgiving Day Meal. I use some gourmet-ish type that Costco is selling now, fresh, trimmed, cleaned, packed in a bag they say “can be microwaved as is to cook the beens”. Not my style, not possible anyhow, as we don’t…


  • Kitchen Tales Update

    Following up on the previous post … The sink is hooked up and things are getting into better order. It’s nice to have the sink and that counter space in a different position. The counter is to the right of the stove, and that makes for something I’ve never had before here, counter next to…


  • Kitchen Tales

    Yesterday DH started doing more of our kitchen re-model, and is finishing, hopefully, the plumbing today. It’s a temporary/permanent change. The sink/counter/cabinet lower section is now on the opposite side of the kitchen, so it’s flipped from how it was positioned originally, but down a few feet towards the other end of the kitchen. It’s…


  • Roasty Toasty

    The Autumn chill has decended. I made a fire yesterday afternoon, it got just a tad too chilly in the main living space. The temperature overnight this, past night, went below freezing, and a fire in the fireplace first thing was definitely in order this bright morn. There’s nothing like a wood fire on a…


  • Preparing for Thanksgiving Day

    It’s just nine days now until Thanksgiving Day, the American Holiday. Next day then is Victoria’s b-day. It’s always something like this, her’s just before, on, or just after. I do want to get her stuff wrapped up and totally planned out today or tomorrow, and then plot out Thanksgiving fully. For me the Thanksgiving…


  • Changes Beginning

    I have decided to change some of my websites, and through that idea THIS blog will change, I am merging details from another blog into this one as well as actual posts. The posts will come in the next week or so, hopefully, as I weed through them and spiffy up categories before importing them.…


  • www gone

    I had my options for this site to use both “www” and not use it to work … so anyone could come here with or without it and get to the right page. In WP I had it set to use the “www.” It worked mostly all the time, until recently I just can’t get…


  • Stryper

    I seem not to have written about Stryper on this blog. So here is a post about Stryper. See my Page (on the sidebar) about their November 3rd (2005) concert in Atlanta, GA. My husband and I went together. I saw them many years ago in the mid-80’s. I’ve long considered them one of my…
