I feel like I’ve been doing a pretty good job of keeping up with my 365 one photo a day goal. Sure I miss a few days here or there and sometimes the most interesting subject I can find ends up being dinner or my plants, but I’ve captured some pretty light and that makes [...]
My flickr stream has been filling up with lots of photos of food so I thought I’d share a few recipes that I’ve been trying out this past week. Last night I made this really yummy tomato + chickpea dish. I swapped the oregano and parsley for fresh basil and made brussels sprouts for a side. [...]
I like to use a little of my weekends to try new recipes. They get bonus points if it’s something that can be popped in the oven for dinner on a weeknight when picking something up on the way home is just way too tempting. I had a few spare hours on Sunday afternoon so [...]
It’s a bright, cold wintery day and we’re still fighting off our colds a little so I am extra glad I made a batch of split pea soup last night! I tried a new recipe and it’s the easiest thing in the world! There’s nothing quite so nice as homemade soup, I think. My prescription [...]
It’s been a mellow but good weekend full of planning and making. There’s nothing better than wrapping up a project, except starting a new one! It’s getting colder and most of the weekend has been wet and dreary. I love it! It’s the perfect day for a little indoor gardening and soup making. My little [...]

I went on a recipe hunt tonight and here’s what I found: Best Buttermilk Fried Chicken via No Recipes This recipe reminds [...]
Yesterday we spent pretty much the whole afternoon in the kitchen making some super delicious food. I made Jamie Oliver’s crispy asparagus and potato tart. It looks so lovely and it’s pretty easy to make. It was so good, we almost polished it off before I could get any photos! Last week an email from [...]
I came across Seven Spoons a week or so ago and it is simply wonderful! It’s the most inspiring food blog brimming with gorgeous photos and lovely food ideas. I want to try making all of the recipes!
You should visit Pretty Good for gorgeous photos and happy thoughts. I love this photo! Doesn’t it sum up a summer Friday so perfectly? Just looking at it, I feel the humidity and smell the heady perfume of the roses. It’s certainly humid here and our little garden is flourishing from all the rain we’ve been having. [...]
Hello friends, I hope you have had a wonderful day! Ours has been pretty long. This morning we got the the flooring in the front room finished, and by we I mean Joel. We made our thanksgiving dinner and then decorated our tree. I think it has turned out very lovely this year. Now we [...]
