I’m ending my break from blogging. When I decided to stop, the events of the world left me feeling frivolous with my extra-curricular activity but since I stopped I discovered something – blogging can feel superficial but it really does help me to be a better person. Recording my actions and activities motivates me to … More Fast Four
We’re trying to eat healthier around here but like oh so many things it’s hard! Neither of us know anything about gardening or produce so the basic step of picking the right tomato at Kroger can be a challenge. The stress of what meals to make, how to pick the right vegetable and the cost … More Hungry Harvest

I’m not a beer drinker but since I live with a beer connoisseur I know stouts are generally a winter beer. Since winter seems to be sticking around, it’s a good time to try the … More Oatmeal Stout Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars

I cherish our slow mornings and they’re even better when you can enjoy a breakfast treat (with coffee ofcourse).
