Just a quickie post. I made these little gems over Labor Day Weekend with no intention of making a post about them. Actually I had no intention of making them, but somehow they came to be after rooting around the fridge for a little something to tie us over until dinner. After making them I […]
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 […]
Recently I rediscovered my ice cream maker. After brushing the thick layer of dust from the box I tried my hand at making Gelato. I was so pleased with the results that I started to think adventurous. Like most of my ideas, they seem to randomly pop into my head. I have no explanation for […]
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 […]
I have been excited about the Secret Recipe Club ever since I read about it on Feast on the Cheap (one of my all time favorite blogs). After reading about it, I knew I wanted to participate. I’ve been looking for a club of some sort like Daring Cooks, only I’m not to daring. However […]
Last weekend Mcgyver and I went lake Krabbing. We set our krab pots out late one evening, full of bait and woke up early the next morning to see what we caught. Much to my delight we caught a Krab. Oh happy days, I couldn’t wait to prepare a tasty lunch that day. Yes, that’s […]
We’re nuts here, seriously crazy nuts. We are also nuts about nuts. If I put out a bowl of pistachio, before you know it it have a big pile of shells and pistachio skin all over the place. I used to buy shelled peanuts, but lately McGyver had shown a sensitivity to them. He seems […]
On a whim I picked up a jar of almond butter with honey. I’ve never had almond butter but I’ve heard about it and thought it sounded wonderful. The jar with honey in it was particularly enticing, peanut butter and honey is a favorite combination of mine, especially on celery. I eagerly dug into the […]
There is a tall stainless steel shelf in my garage. It’s an extension to my kitchen. I store big bulky items like a crockpot, pressure cooker and electric roasting oven on it’s shelves. I also store items not frequently used like cake decorating items and items used only when I entertain. Buried in a box, […]
So many of my posts have been about eating up at the cabin, this is surely not the last one either. For me, I feel constantly challenged to serve interesting food. It’s so easy to fall into the hamburger/hot dog/cold sandwich/granola bar rut. Typically we are working during the day, painting, chopping wood, even fetching […]
