TToT – Celebrations All Week!

I can’t even formulate a coherent introduction this week. I am just SO glad that school has finally ended and it is summertime! And so without further ado, let me dive right in with that as my first item of Thankful. It’s summertime!   Pretty thankful for great music, too. Always. Two great versions of…

TToT – Snow and Ice Edition

Is it really the end of the week? I’m not sure exactly how that happened. Maybe it’s because we had a three day week again…snow days Thursday and Friday and here we are in the very wee hours of Saturday already. So yeah, I’m so not prepared for TToT yet. I think we’ll wing this…

Clean Out the Pantry Week

Well, we did it. We managed to get through a busy week creating meals from what we had on hand. This is a fun game for me. I know, I know…get a life, right? Honestly, it gave me a chance to stretch my kitchen brain a little and clean out a few odds and ends…

Soup of the Week – First Summer Edition

I know what you’re thinking. Who makes soup in the summer? Aside from the rather obvious choice of gazpacho, does anyone really think soup in the summer? Apparently, I do. I wasn’t actually thinking soup when I found this one. I was thinking “what the heck am I going to do with all of this…
