As I have often discussed the Oregon rainy winter skies SUCK. I HATE the dark dreary days. This is what I saw when I tried to look out our front window on Sunday.

YEP… it was raining so much that the windows were streaked with rain. UGH! All I wanted to do was . . . → Read More: Mama’s Potato Soup with Roasted Garlic

For Thanksgiving I made Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes. They were such a hit that I made them again for Christmas. The downside is that unless you buy roasted garlic, you have to plan ahead. It is REALLY REALLY easy to roast garlic.

I have a garlic roaster made by Progressive, but you do NOT . . . → Read More: Roasted Garlic

We’re having a “Holiday Goodie Sharing” today at work. I got nominated to coordinate it. That’s what I get for suggesting it and not being at the meeting where it was discussed. (Thanks, Kim! )

I made two different sugar cookie recipes (of which I will share very soon). While I was frosting the . . . → Read More: Sugar Overload

Don’t you just hate it when you go to the store and they don’t have what you want? I buy my peanut butter at Costco and want a specific type. They’ve not had it the last three times I’ve looked.

I have been quiet for a little bit. Sorry! Don’t you just hate it when life interferes with your plans? Well, that’s been my past week. Stuff happens…
