Steamy Oats and Holiday Mints

Papers. Does anyone else have trouble getting them started? Now that midterms are over I have several paper due dates looming in the next few weeks and I find the hardest part is getting them started. I never know where to begin! So I put them off. That certainly doesn’t help. I’m working on trying [...]

Spring in November and Danger Squash Slicing

Sunday
Sunday was gorgeous. I think Spring is making a brief reappearance. It was basically warm enough to wear t-shirts outside. And last week there was brief snow. What’s going on Weather? I’m not complaining though, I’ll take warmth over snow any day. I’m not looking forward to winter… brrrrr.
I started the morning off the [...]

What’s been going down [...]

Turkey Time

  ——————Canada Turkey Weekend is here! And almost over for that matter since it’s already Monday (no idea where the weekend went) but it’s been a good one. I love Thanksgiving. And long weekends. And October. And the Fall season in general.

Squash Every Day

So we’re finally at the end of this week and I’m feeling pretty relieved. Straight up, this week’s been a bit of a doozy and today was no exception. But simply because I’m emotioned right out, I’m going to skip right on through to some foodie stuff and keep it simple. Yum.
Wednesday
This was [...]

A Grand Discovery and a Tribute to Cereal and Vegetables

We interrupt this post with an important News FLASH —-
The Peanut Butter Heavens have touched down in my city! I’ve relished in the joys of Cinnamon Raisin Swirl and White Chocolate Wonderful that I happily discovered in the past at my local grocery store, but never did I think I would [...]
