taken in July 1980 When you’ve been married for 30 years, it normally is cause to have a few friends over and get your kids to make you a meal. So that’s what we did. When cooking for a dozen-ish people after a long week, it was a goal to make the meal as easy…
I like to think I’m a moderately adventurous cook. I am willing to try new foods, spices, techniques, etc – but I’m really weary of things where I can’t “tell” what I’m doing. Enter “Angel Food Cake”. Last Monday, it was my parents 30th anniversary and it was also the same day that they were…
Its my 300th blog post. Remember when just less than 6 months ago I was at 200? If you’ve ever read my blog, you know that I tend to write more about food, the beach, websites I like, products I love, family… not feelings, hopes, and fears {here after known as FHF}. To be honest,…
One of the downsides of hotel living is that you don’t get to cook for yourself. Now, one of the upsides is that I never have to make my bed or wash loads of laundry. So, you win some you lose some. Over the past weekend, there was a lot of time spent in the…
I think I’ve been working since I was 15. Since I turned 28 this year, that means I have 13 working years under my belt. {Wow, that seems a little depressing to type and realize}.

Oh. so. busy. I’m getting ready to go on vacation for a week and I’m very excited – but its been a very busy few days as I realize how unprepared I am for this. I should send Amazon a special thank you note for getting me all of my packages on-time. Without Amazon, I…
My summer romance. Yes it’s with a dog but look at that cute little face! My favorite dog friend is visiting me for a few days while his mom and dad are watching people tie the knot in Vermont. Dwight came to stay with me last summer for a few days and it was the…
pinterest. Another blog I read, Boundless Fille, does this thing called Thankful Thursday and it seems appropriate since I spent the first half of the week sick with the flu. I used to think of myself as a “healthy” person but when you’ve gotten the flu twice in 6 months, you’ve got to wonder what…
