Okay, so what day is it exactly? I completely lost track when I was in Puerto Rico a week ago for the National Turkey Federation Convention. (Don’t hate me because I just wrote that. Admit it – you would be the same way.) I got back late Sunday night and then hit the ground running […] Read more…
It’s Christmas Eve and we’re packing up to hit the road. We don’t travel too far – just a couple of hours to Teacher Man’s family later today and then on Christmas Day, we head to my parents’ farm, another three hours or so. On Friday, we will eventually wind our way back home. It’s a […] Read more…
It’s been a big weekend around here. My niece, Miss Morgan, turned 1 today and we attended her first birthday party on Saturday. Plus our beloved Earl the #Pug turned 14 (14!), also on Saturday.

I had huge helpings of my Grandma Anderson’s stuffing recipe – a classic that is so good! – along with plenty of mashed potatoes, gravy, cranberries, turkey and three kinds of pies. Here’s a photo of our beautiful bird, right out of the oven, awaiting its showcase on […] Read more…
It’s Sunday night and, as is our usual custom, Joe and I are plopped on the couch in our porch. He’s watching a video on his iPad and I’m working on this blog plus my weekly blog I write for Agriculture.com. Earl the pug is on the floor right below us, snoring away after the […] Read more…
