I haven’t posted since June 9. Yikes – I hate that! It couldn’t be helped, really. Last week, I was immersed in the summer conference of the Minnesota Turkey Growers Association and even prior to that, work was pretty much the priority. I wish I could say that’s going to change and I’ll have more […] Read more…
So I’m going with tips for awesome turkey burgers tonight. Why? Here’s the deal: I don’t have a recipe to share tonight because: 1) It was 90 degrees out (which if you know me, then you know I think this was awesome!) and Joe and I decided to pick up some Dairy Queen after work […] Read more…

Hey ya’ll, it’s June is Turkey Lovers Month! What? You didn’t know? Wow, that’s weird, but no worries. It’s not as famous – yet – as June is Dairy Month, but we’re working on that. And I think dairy and turkey make a great combination, actually. What’s not to love? Turkey, milk, cheese, ice cream […] Read more…
Another weekend is almost in the books. And it’s June 1 tomorrow. Whaaaaat? Do you know what this means? It means that by Friday, I will officially have one husband and one son out of school for the summer. Both are fairly excited about this prospect. Me? Well, it’s all good, of course, but it […] Read more…
So the unofficial start to summer – Memorial Day weekend – is nearly over. The sun came out on Friday and tonight, but in between it was cloudy, cool, and rainy in Minnesota. (I give you Exhibit A above – a look at my brother’s shed on the farm from Sunday evening.) That didn’t stop […] Read more…
