Confession time. My husband and I started Weight Watcher’s 1 1/2 weeks ago. I haven’t really talked about our change because so many people are on their New Year’s Resolution Band Wagon to get healthy and fit. The decision to do WW isn’t about any New Year’s resolution, it merely was about the fact that […]

Motorcycle Monday
Because I’m a poor time manager. Because I didn’t look for my photos to go with my next series of posts. Because I am addicted to Cinnamon Vanilla Creamer and had to buy some before having my coffee. Because my dog had a Vet appointment this morning. Because I wanted to go to Staples and […]
Sun Dried Tomato, Artichoke and Goat’s Milk Brie Tart
Have you ever noticed how some foods are just naturally beautiful? Or that the colors of the Italian flag make you hungry? There is something about the red, green and white combination that is so utterly and visually mouthwatering!
Bruschetta and Artichoke Quiche
Do real men eat quiche? McGyver does, but I’m not sure if a helicopter pilot, retired veteran and biker dude counts as a real man? In my book he is, and he loves quiche. What’s not to love about an egg pie?
Motorcycle Monday-A Hack Job
It’s been building up for awhile, my dry little cough. Now it’s to the point that I am hacking my lungs out. Oh yes, I’ve been a sick one. I’m pretty sure I know how COPD-ers feel, or perhaps someone who is asthmatic. The gasping for air and the lungs not cooperating. The sleepless nights […]

Sun Dried Tomato Pesto Penne Rustica
Dinner in the amount of time it takes to boil water and cook pasta? Oh yeah! This dish is perfect for a weeknight or a busy day when you need something on the plate fast but you want some wholesomeness also.
Sun Dried Tomatoes – South of the Border Style
In the package that I received from Bella Sun Luci were julienned sun dried tomatoes and red peppers. My sun dried tomato cooking usually leans towards Mediterranean cooking, but when I saw this package with the red peppers, I went South of the Border for inspiration.
Motorcycle Monday: European Honeymoon on a Harley-The Final Day
I can’t believe it’s here, my honeymoon is ending…again. I’ve spent the last of many Monday’s retelling the story of honeymoon trip through Europe on our 1998 Harley Davidson Super Glide. We went through 11 different countries, we rode hard, ate well, drank much, loved lots and had the time of our lives. If you […]
Sun Dried Tomato and Bacon Salad Dressing
On August 27, 2011 I made a notation in my little spiral notebook, the one that I write recipes in (and a bunch of other stuff), it said: Need to make again for photos.
