The promise of spring . . .
I’ll enjoy these buds while waiting for my snowbells and narcissus to bloom. They are looking very shy this winter . . .
Hyrbrid House, Part 4
or “The Miracle Workers from Midland, Michigan have arrived!” You haven’t heard from me in a while, because I was unable to escape the ills of winter. I”m still not 100% but I’m so super-dee-duper excited about this group of wonderful folks from up north that I dragged myself out of my sick bed to…
CONTEST OVER! SEE WHO WON!
Suzanne The Farmer’s Wife, who makes her own laundry soap by the 3-gallon batch (and I am duly impressed by the way) just happened to be the first one to post on this contest and she just happened to be right! Except that it is not a soft shelled crab, but a very lively hard-shelled…
Crawfish Stew for Beginners
FIRST: YOU DO NOT MAKE A ROUX (roo)!!!
Seriously. I mean that, I really do. If you are “roux challenged”, then fret no more. This little recipe right here is going to set you free.

Chaoui and Baby
Just as our children grow older, and the photo ops happen less often, the same holds true for raccoons. Again, who would believe that this young adult coon and elderly doggie would play together? This is their morning ritual in my room while I check my email . . . before I have to put…


Looks a lot better than the take out Chinese I had. Plus I bet it warmed up your kitchen, which mine could have used!
Oh yea, Cuz, it was delicious and the kitchen was cozy and warm. The oven is the only heat we have on that side of the house, anyway!
And a lot better than the frozen pizza I had while shuttling ice chips and Sprite to RenRed.
Well, nurse HH, I hope he’s on the mend today. That virus stuff gets old real quick!
And we had lemon icebox pie for dessert !
Oh now, you really outdid me there! Was it really lemon “ice box”? Oh my goodness. And you didn’t save me a piece?
If I made a lemon icebox pie no one but me would’ve gotten any. I only make them about 4 times a year just for that reason. I can eat the whole thing!
Looks great!!! Which wine did you chose?
Now, MD, you know I don’t drink wine. But I’d be glad for you to recommend one!
