Adventures in healthy eating

February 22, 2023

I am inspired by this healthy eating kick. So I went to Trader Joes and bought: – avocado – sea salt – refried beans – organic spinach – organic low fat yogurt. I have a half-baked idea that I will blend all of these items together to make a healthy something. 1. Avocado. Avocado has […]

Yum, fresh corn

September 23, 2020

These days, it is the little things that make my day. For one, it is fresh corn from our local farmstand. It can’t get much fresher than this; they pick it every morning and bring it to the farm stand. Not to be forgotten, but we even have little corn ears for Sir Oliver and […]

COVID surprises

June 3, 2020

Ack, I probably shouldn’t use the word “Covid” and the word “surprise” in the same sentence. Enough with the Covid already! I don’t know about you all, but since I have sheltering in place, I’ve had a lot of time to think. As I was reflecting this weekend, I realized that I have been surprised […]

Food, just food

April 29, 2020

I have never in my life spent so much time thinking about food. I think about when to go to the grocery store; I write my grocery list so that it follows the aisle so I can get in and out quickly. I wish I could hold my breath while I’m in the store to […]

The definition of fine dining

November 6, 2019

You might say that I am very much a traditionalist at heart. This was brought home to me by a recent dining experience.

Mr. Ken’s definition of healthy food

September 11, 2019

Yet(!) another story from the life of Mr. Ken. Mr. Ken just got back from his daily walk. He yells up the stairs. On an aside here, what is it about spouses that feel compelled to carry on a long conversation when you are not in the same room with them, yet when you are […]

Ahhh, summertime!

July 31, 2019

I used to think that fall was my favorite time of year, but over the years I have changed my mind. I love summer! A lot of it has to do with the hours of daylight. As I have gotten older, I seem to be more sensitive to less hours of daylight and my energy […]

Some of my favorite summer things

July 3, 2019

The lazy days of summer are upon us. I got to thinking about the summer and how I love it. July 4th kicks off the summer and I am so ready for it! Here are some of my favorite summer things: 1. Many hours of daylight. I am a morning person and I love to […]

Tips for watching the Super Bowl

February 7, 2018

Blah, blah, blah. I don’t like football. There is just something very weird about 300 pound men jumping on top of each other. And for this they get paid millions of dollars a year! I just don’t get it. This dates back to my junior high days when I was a cheerleader. We had a […]
