Does This Change Things?

I’ve resisted it for a while but have finally succumbed…I purchased an electronic reading device (Kindle), but I’m getting ahead of myself. Let me start over by saying that I am a bibliophile. I love books, and I own more than I’ll probably ever read. But as previously stated I bought a Kindle and itContinue reading “Does This Change Things?”

Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#252)

A paper bag containing two plastic containers, each container holding a pint of rice pilaf with toasted orzo (cooked in chicken broth). I ate one pint and my dogs ate the other mixed with dried dog food (mine was mixed with sauteed vegetables).

>Caramelized Cauliflower Frittata…with other good stuff

> I like  eggs, simple as that. They are versatile, can be adapted to almost any flavor–from breakfast to dessert–and they are easy to prepare. When my son is not home, as was the case this evening, I tend to cook very simple things. Tonight was no exception.

>15 Gallons of Vegetable Soup

> I made this today at work for a luncheon I’ll be serving tomorrow. I always try to make soups a day ahead and let their flavors mingle overnight; they taste better the second day. None-the-less, I had some myself for lunch today…at nearly 57 liters a cup or two won’t be missed. It wasContinue reading “>15 Gallons of Vegetable Soup”

Well not entirely by himself, he attended a workshop at Buffalo Blue Bike with a few friends and the outcome of the workshop is a completed bike.Continue reading “My Son’s New Bike”
