This past week was spent at the cabin; hunting season (rifle) has started here in Montana. I’m no huntress; I’d rather be Martha Stewart of the Mountains than go out and sit in the cold or tramp through the woods. But McGyver loves hunting, he loves to take his wife hunting, he loves to buy […]

Bhatura (India Fried Bread) {Secret Recipe Club}
Many years ago I lived in England, it was while stationed there that I developed my love for Indian Cuisine. I love British food, especially pub fare, good and hearty! However when I wanted to go out for something special it was Indian. I would hazard to guess that next to India, England has the […]
Giveaway, New Look & a Cocktail to celebrate!
What do you think? Isn’t it amazing! A bit of a shocker, the new look, but I love it. For months now I’ve been working with Melissa, web designer (Fine Lime Designs), food blogger (Eyes Bigger Than My Stomach) and food photographer extraordinaire to give the blog a whole new look. Don’t get me wrong, […]
Sparkpeople Cookbook Giveaway {Cornish Hen with Apple and Pecan Stuffing}
/As most of you know, certainly those who stop by regularly know, I don’t do a lot of giveaways. In fact I’ve only done a few, I also don’t do many product reviews. I’m mostly about the recipes and ramblings, but every now and then there is something that you just love that, well, you […]
Kale Salt {and Kale Chips}
Of all the things that I’ve ever posted about, if you only make one recipe, try one thing, it has to be this kale salt. Kale salt? Indeed, it’s revolutionary! It’s ahhhhmazing! It’s tasty! It’s healthy! Folks, this salt is so incredible that I would consider marketing it! As far as I know there isn’t […]
Roasted Garlic Zucchini Tots
I’m a results girl. I like to see rewards of my hard work, and I don’t mean that feeling good cause I got something done reward. I need to see my results. A freshly cleaned house, a new organized space, fresh cut lawn, published photos, etc. I think that’s why I took to gardening, to […]
Smashed Rhubarb and Strawberry Tart
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 […]
Roasted Celery and Fennel Soup
I have an enemy. I used to think it was just one sided, I hated them. But that can’t be true because of the way they torture me, surely if you love someone you wouldn’t stress them out! I know it’s unhealthy to have an enemy but I am finding it difficult to forgive this […]
Macaroni and Cheese Perfected!
Macaroni and Cheese…perhaps the ultimate comfort food? Mac-n-cheese has been a staple all my life, only it came in the form of a box, not homemade. Typically not the blue box that you may have been thinking of; we were usually stocked up with that plain white box with the black lettering MACARONI AND CHEESE […]
Orange Chicken
I really wish that I could share a taste of the food that I post about it; a taste replaces a thousand words. Sometimes I struggle trying to articulate how incredible a recipe is. I find myself consistently falling back on yummy, delicious, tasty, awesome, etc. Sometimes I get so desperate that I make up […]
