I forgot to take a picture for this post. Oops. I am cooking a whole turkey this week. Thanksgiving was kind of bust. Which means I had a couple of turkeys left over. I am also looking at thinning out what I have in the freezer to make room, just in case my mother in [...]
I guess I have now become a makeup artist. No, I haven't switched jobs. My mother in law wants me to do her makeup before she goes out dancing. I like the way she looks much better when I do here makeup over when she does it. I've seen her makeup over many years and [...]
As luck would have it, we received several portions of venison. A friend of Tony gave us some after doing some car repairs. Tony then asked me if I can do a Sunday dinner with the roast. Ok. Of course I can do that. What can I do with a roast. Of course, make a [...]
Things are busy this week. I went to see a college hockey game with my brother and oldest nephew. It was a lot of fun and economical. Tony and I are going to catch another game. Just the two of us. When looking up tickets, we wanted to see the University of Michigan and Michigan [...]
We've moved in for the most part. I would say we are about 80% done. There is some stuff back at our old house, but it's mostly odds and ends. We will probably donate or toss most of it. The need to go back to the house for stuff I forgot is becoming less frequent. [...]
I don't know about you, but when you move, you find extra things you no longer need. In this case, I have three bottles of red wine that have sat in my basement for a long time. I don't drink on a regular basis anymore and when I do, I don't want to open a [...]
This week, I'm mostly took a break from working on the house for Thanksgiving preparations. However, I did want to come up with what to do with the dark meat before the next weekend. Instead of looking up a recipe, I decided to develop one from some of my favorite fall flavors and a wonderful [...]
Another week of working on the house. We are so close but yet not quite there yet. I installed a reverse osmosis system, and was so proud of myself. That was until the needle valve started leaking. I hope a new plastic compression sleeve will fix it. Otherwise it's painting and installing shower doors this [...]
As I have done in years past, I take the dark meat from a whole turkey and make it into a stew. Usually I cook the breast portion for Thanksgiving. This year, I didn't get the chance because I was too busy. However, I did find a low sodium whole turkey that I am cooking [...]
I have never had Borscht. I will fully admit I don't love beets. It's one of those vegetables that I can eat, but if I have a choice, I prefer to skip them. I have a lot of things in this category. Well, Tony was juicing for quite a while and used beets and apples. [...]
