It’s a tradition! Every year, my mother invites me over to her house to decorate for Christmas. Christmas comes early at her house, at least in part, because both of her brothers’ families visit each Thanksgiving, and we all have an early Christmas with one another. We look forward to it every year, but my […]

We’re starting to get some cooler days mingled in with the warmer days. Those cooler days have me dreaming of hot soups and stews… and, of course, chili with beans. I have several favorite chili recipes. You will likely see them all before long, but we’ll start with with my ground meat (I use ground […]
It’s been one of those months. I just need to reclaim a little “Me Time”. You know! The dirty laundry is always a couple days ahead of me… or more. The cats have discovered a new way to mess something up. I have far more household projects than time to do them. Even this blog has […]
