Our dinner group met earlier this month and as usual it was delicious.

I don’t usually cook with recipes and I am usually… Continue reading Dinner Group Gathering

Dinner Group in December
When our dinner group met last month at our home, it was just prior to the bathroom re-do project.

In their defense, since our dinner group is made up of neighbors, everyone lives in… Continue reading Dinner Group in December

Time For Cooking Thyme
I was invited to attend a class recently that really aligns with my way of thinking. Being an advocate of cooking at home and slowing down to enjoy the food you prepare, I was thrilled when Cooking Thyme, a local cooking school, invited me to attend their Thanksgiving class. Inspiring people to cook at home,… Continue reading Time For Cooking Thyme
