I never imagined that I would ever create a recipe using leftover lobster, because we have never had lobster leftover! However, getting such two large lobsters from lobsteranyhere.com changed that! What a special luxury to have lobster for breakfast; especially in the mountains of Montana. I would bet we were the only people in Montana […]
At this point in our lives my husband has everything he needs and then some, truthfully he has more than he needs. This makes it difficult to buy him gifts. Just when I think I’ve thought of the perfect thing, like the time I decided to get him a miter saw, he ends up buying […]
I did it, I did it! I am jumping from joy; my heart has grown ten times bigger. I can’t stop bragging. I just tried and I did it! All weekend I’ve been strutting around with a puffed up chest because I did it and I’m pretty darn proud of myself. It just amazes me […]
(Photo taken with iphone driving down the road to our cabin…window up obiously) I’ve been blogging for years about the progress on our cabin. Our little piece of heaven in Big Sky country. The cabin itself has gotten to the point of really being finished. Oh we have our issues (like no hot water […]
There are so many things in life that I wish were just a little better. Life is often not what we imagined it would be. By this time I was supposed to filthy stinkin’ rich and living the high life. On a more basal level I’d like to have less weight on this old body, […]
We have a cabin, a cabin in the mountains. A cabin on 40 acres of forested rocky mountain. I love our cabin, it’s where we spend nearly every weekend of the summer at. A place with out cable, internet and cell phones…a getaway. Since McGyver and I play mountain man and mountain woman every weekend […]
This weekend we went up to the cabin, like we do most of the Summer time. This time McGyver suggested we go for a stroll through the woods. A stroll through the nice shady woods on a hot summer day, who could resist. We loaded up in the Rhino and Becca was coming along (Summer […]
Wowser, it’s been a hectic couple of weeks. Finally our much anticipated visit from our granddaughter and her Mom and Dad was upon us. This was their first visit to Montana, a whirlwind chaotic visit to be sure. You know how you’ve got things planned out? A sort of itinerary to keep focused. Let’s just […]
Happy Birthday McGyver, how old are you? McGyver holds up his hand and starts with the thumb, 1966, then the index finger, 1976, the middle finger, 1986, the ring finger, 1996 and finally the pinky, 2006. Let’s see now it’s 2011, so 2006 to 2011 is 5 years, “I’m 55”. Isn’t it great that after […]
Rustic living means rustic entertaining. Our cabin has finally been finished off enough to be comfortable and McGyver, the Baby boy and I worked hard to get the outside area cleaned up. Our motivation to clean-up? I had invited our year-round neighbors over for dinner. If you remember my last post, my spit chicken the […]
