Happy “What I Ate Wednesday” everybody. I can’t believe we’re here again with yet another WIAW post; it’s almost like it’s been seven days. Hmm, well then. First a big thank you to the lovely Jenn over at Peas and Crayons for being an absolutely fabulous host, as always. Hit her up with some love for sponsoring this…
The CSA Madness Continues
We’re more than halfway through our CSA now, and similar to last week, we are up to our ears and eyeballs in fresh produce, which isn’t a bad way to be, unless of course they threaten to overtake you. The Hubby has banned me from buying any more veggies at the grocery store, and the only reason…
To Eat or Not To Eat Pesticides
To Eat or Not To Eat Pesticides. That is the question. It’s been awhile since my last rant; far too long really (consider this your warning). Now where did I leave my soapbox? Ah, there it is. A quick jump up and we’re off. I have read all sorts of studies (more than I care to admit) on pesticides, and pretty much…
She’s Crafty
“She’s crafty – and she’s just my type. She’s crafty.” If by crafty, you mean cunning, crazy like a fox, sharp, shrewd and wily, then why yes I am. If you mean skilled in creative activities, artsy-craftsy stuff, then you’ve got the wrong girl. You know what scares me: Jo Ann Fabric’s. That place gives me the heebie jeebies. It might have…
WIAW: Beans, Beans Good for the Heart
Today is Wednesday, which means time for yet another earth-shaking, mouth-quaking, belly aching (in a good way) edition of What I Ate Wednesday sponsored by Jenn over at Peas and Crayons. Check, check, check, check her out. See what, what, what she’s all about. I’ve decided to share my Monday eats with y’all and while it may have started…
Week Eleven CSA and the Panic Hits
Last Thursday, I picked up week eleven of our CSA share, and while I am as pleased as punch, I’m also up to my eyeballs in veggies. For real, it is veggie madness around here and completely out of control. Our most recent share included two patty pan squash, green bell peppers, small cherry tomatoes, three big beefsteak tomatoes, green beans, red…
My Kind Of Wonderful: Banana Walnut Muffins
This weekend was quite simply my kind of wonderful. It started off with a card from my favorite little nephew, Max. What a little charmer. His handwriting is remarkably mature for a three-year old, so it’s possible we’re dealing with a forgery. I’m ruling out nothing at this time in the investigation. Rewards will be given for further information, in the form of…
This or That
Everywhere I turn in the blogosphere (because I’m sure you can rotate in cyberspace), these “This or That” surveys keep cropping up, and since I don’t want to miss out on the fun, I’ve decided to hop on the party train (engine engine number 9 on the New York transit line….) and get with this. Or I could get with that. I think…
Special Announcement
We interrupt your regularly scheduled programming today for a special announcement. I’ve been waiting to share this news for just over a month now. The reason for the delay: I wanted to ensure it was a solid story and not a mere figment of my imagination. You’ll get no bad journalism here. No fast breaking…
Summer Loving
If the heading of this post brought to mind visions of John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John rocking out on the bleachers with the Pink Ladies and the T-Birds then we should hang out, especially if you can sing the whole song. You be Danny, I’ll be Sandy. Go. In actuality, I thought we’d do a top…
