Tempus Fugit
Time Flies. Not the Yes song, nor the X-File episode, or anything else for that matter. Just time going by, not being wasted. It has been some time since I posted here. The death of a dear friend has made some changes in my life, that’s for sure, but I’ve been in the background, editing the recipes that I’ve posted already, when I managed to … Continue reading Tempus Fugit
Mellow Coffee
Good Morning. There are probably half as many ways to make coffee, as there are recipes for a martini. I’m not going to explain a great recipe, chide you for not following some ancient ritual, or look down at you because you do it a little differently. Find your ground (chuckle), & stand there. I have a pretty set way to make & drink coffee. … Continue reading Mellow Coffee
Non- Chemical Free Flowing Additive
Yeah, I’m free, free flowing. . . oops, that’s not the song. No, don’t worry, the additive really isn’t rice. I don’t like that in my shakers either. It has been a helper to many, many kitchen over the years, but this isn’t it. Free flowing seasoned salt, or any salt for that matter is convenient, more than anything else. Often, you can shake up … Continue reading Non- Chemical Free Flowing Additive
Nice Ice (d Coffee) Baby
Iced coffee, it’s not just for the heat of summer, but it sure is nice to have when it is. There are three parts to this, that is there are three recipes. We’ve all heard about the debate, maybe even have been a part of one; about “watering down” coffee, when ice is added. It kinda goes with the drink. Adding ice to anything will … Continue reading Nice Ice (d Coffee) Baby
No Smelly Lids or plastic
Smell this! As many who know me, know that I like reusing, & recycling things. Combine that with my love to dehydrate my own stuff, & I need containers. Lots of containers. I’ll use plastic containers, but I prefer to reuse glass jars. Glass doesn’t leech anything onto or into the contents. Some of the better jars for putting your dehydrated herbs & veggies in, … Continue reading No Smelly Lids or plastic
Homemade Corned Beef Hash: Pandemic version
Every year I really look forward to Cooking up some corned beef & cabbage for the holiday. It means that I’ll be having some fresh corned beef hash that Sunday for breakfast.

Cabbage & water in the hash isn’t on the list, but isn’t too bad. … Continue reading Homemade Corned Beef Hash: Pandemic version

Busy, busy, busy
Picture the magician in my favorite snowman (Frosty) movie, after Santa’s visit. I’ve been a bit slow in posting recipes & ideas, because I have been working on some stories, as well as a cook book. The stories are selling of course, so I kind of lean towards feeding that. I also am learning an art program, that has quite the learning curve to it. … Continue reading Busy, busy, busy
Conversation Heart Cookies
Not quite along the lines of a how to cooking recipe but certainly something you can throw together easily enough that I’d like to share. I wanted something different than the “Necco” conversation hearts. Time stamp: I also hear that the company which bought them, is having another issue this year making them. Anyhow. I wanted to try out cookie flooding as well as edible … Continue reading Conversation Heart Cookies
PB& J Cookies
I was thinking about combining Peanut Butter with jelly in a cookie, for a little bit. I’m sure it has been done, everything has; here is my spin on it. I wanted easy, because who really has time to bake? All of the time? I will confess, & I do so in this blog, I am not a baker. So you may snicker a bit … Continue reading PB& J Cookies
