2013 has arrived and brought with it a big change for me. You may or may not have noticed my absence lately. I have felt it daily, my absence. I’ve not blogged once in this new month and I’ve missed it terribly. I have particularly missed the cooking and eating part of writing a food […]
To all my blog friends and followers I wish you a very Merry Christmas and all the best for the New Year! I’m wishing for a white Christmas but my family and I will be traveling to join all of my man Dan’s family in Florida for a sandy, flip-flop wearin’ Christmas. Word has […]
December 2, 2012 – In My Kitchen Today the temperature in north Texas is 78*. The air conditioner is running, I am wearing flip-flops and did I say, “it is December 2”!

The refreshing taste of ginger beer and the strong rum flavor will surely take me through fall months as well, I seriously like this drink! […]
I promised a story about my “Sugar Shake” adventure with the bees. This experience was a first for me and possibly my bees. I can’t say for sure about the bees
Last summer I posted a story about the Mt. Gainor Inn, a B&B in Dripping Springs, Texas. You can read it here: http://74.220.215.203/~theoran3.
