Sometimes it tough to think with family activities, the dogs, the TV blaring, the dishwasher and washer and dryer going..all that din one can hardly hear themselves to think. I think that is why my clever ideas most often come to me when I’m riding my bike or when I’m in the shower. The throaty […]
It was a lovely day in February, unusual for this time of year, especially in Montana. It was overcast, but I think the clouds were acting more like a warm blanket, keeping us all cozy down here on earth. There was a touch of spring in the air; I cruised the backyard and noted that […]
I love photo props. Some of you other bloggers apply the KISS principle (keep it simple stupid), but me, I can’t help myself, I keep finding adorable little things. I really love vintage things (including McGyver). My children will attest to my love for vintage items, I think I spent a good portion of all […]

I cook Italian but I don’t make my own pasta. I cook French but don’t make fancy pastries. I cook German but don’t make […]
If you asked my Baby Boy what his favorite soup is, he’ll tell you without a moments hesitation that it’s clam chowder. New England style is his favorite, but he likes it in all forms. Do you know how many varieties there are? Let me share the ones that I know of: New England – […]
When I lived in England my family and I took a holiday up in the Yorkshire Dales. The Yorkshire Dales is a gorgeous area of England, full of green rolling hills spotted with dark craggy rocks. You can see sheep and cows wandering the fenced off green fields. The moist weather creates the most intense […]
