Imagine being in a foreign country and not for friendly reasons. You’re there because you stepped up and joined the services. The services…Army, Air Force, Marines, Navy, Coast Guard, the services…to serve. Many people have served this country, they sacrificed me time, family time, friends time and sometimes sacrificed everything, never able to return home […]
I may have scaled back on my blogging but I just couldn’t scale back on The Secret Recipe Club, you know because clubbing is so much fun It had to happen, at some point, I was going to be assigned a Vegan blog. I was pretty sure that I wouldn’t have an issue, but […]
The last couple of weeks I’ve been recounting what I deemed as my first big girl ride. With little experience riding I rode the infamous Tail of the Dragon, a road with 318 curves in 11 short miles. It scared me to death, so much so that we decided to take a different route home, […]
This post has nothing to do with a recipe and everything to do about making lemonade. You know the saying “when life hands you lemons, make lemonade”. Last year I got handed a big lemon when I was let go from my job, it was devastating to me, emotionally. I had to do a lot […]
Last week I described our journey to the Tail and setting up camp (you can read about that here), today is the day that I ride the infamous Tail of the Dragon, ignorance is bliss. Had I known that it was such a challenging ride for a novice, I may not have done it. I […]

When I was flitting around the blogosphere, my eyes landed on Sippity Sups Gnudis with peas, bacon and mint, these guys have been on my must make list for sometime, after all the main ingredient is Ricotta, and I’m a little freakish about cheese. As I was reading Greg’s post, I thought to myself, I […]
Before I go into the journal part of my trip, I’m going to share a little background. I got my motorcycle license at the end of the riding season in 2003. I took my 1998 Superglide, which I had bought from McGyver (it was the bike we fell in love on) out for my first […]
I got an email from Erin over at Big Fat Baker that announced the next holiday for the Holiday Recipe Club was going to be Buddha’s Birthday. Whoa, you say….Buddha’s birthday? That’s right, It just so happens that the Holiday Recipe Club is spreading it’s wings and going international, baby. Which suits this blogger just […]
