Prepare To Drool

April 16, 2011 by The Orange Bee

Be sure to check out the new “Road Food” page today. Photos are up for your viewing pleasure. Click “Road Food”, and then visit the sub-categories. Prepare to drool…

Today I had a few extra minutes. Well, I never truly have a few extra minutes. Today I decided to make free time and bake some chocolate chip cookies. I have been lazy about baking sweets to enjoy. No, I’ve really been too busy to bake. Yes, that’s it – I’ve not made time to […]

Check out the Photos page at the top of the blog and click on “An Amusing Visitor”. It’s something a little different. Enjoy!

Tornado Time In Texas

April 12, 2011 by The Orange Bee

Night before last a rapid and dangerous storm blew through Texas in the middle of the night. I am eternally grateful that there was no damage to my home or yard. It was verified that a tornado did blow through my community and the path of evidence was clear-cut. Trees down, metal mangled, fences laid […]

Spontaneous Cuisine

April 8, 2011 by The Orange Bee

I quote Pearl Bailey…”The fact is that it takes more than ingredients and technique to cook a good meal. A good cook puts something of himself into the preparation – he cooks with enjoyment, anticipation, spontaneity, and he is willing to experiment”. This statement pretty much sums me up. I begin with anticipation of enjoying […]

Going Green

April 5, 2011 by The Orange Bee

One of the perks of capturing swarms or removing bees from people’s yards is they might toss you a bone in the way of a few bucks or in this case a lovely bunch of fresh-cut asparagus. When I helped my bee man remove the bees from the water meter box a few days ago […]

Lucky #5 A Chili Cook-Off

March 28, 2011 by The Orange Bee

If you’ve been following my blog you might remember I mentioned I would be competing in the Central Market Chili & Cornbread Cook-Off yesterday afternoon. My competition was not something to be sneezed at. Oh no-o-o they were not. It was clear that much thought and preparation went into each pot of chili and pan […]

Piece of Cake

March 25, 2011 by The Orange Bee

I was craving chocolate cake. I do not know why but I was. It could be because I spotted this recipe in a magazine while I was waiting for a slow leaking tire to be repaired. I was hungry, the worst time to grocery shop or peruse recipes. Everything looks good when you’re hungry. All […]

Kiss The Moon

March 21, 2011 by The Orange Bee

Did you see the moon on Saturday night? It was a “Super Moon”. I’m not calling it a super moon because I thought it looked super. It was a “Super Moon” because scientists and astronomers refer to it as “Super” due to its being closer to earth and thus appearing brighter and bigger. It was […]

Sweet Spring

March 18, 2011 by The Orange Bee

Spring is near and it feels like it today. Warm, sunny, clear, slight breeze and nearing the end of spring break. It has been an interesting week at The Orange Bee between bee adventures, the college search, March madness taking over every television we own and seeking to enjoy spring and the absence of our […]
