Wow. It’s been a very long day. I have a whole new admiration for television personalities and production crews. What a lot of work! I started by arriving at the park when I was told to, and then I was told that they were running a little behind. We were […]

Where’s Erika?
Lol. Well, I think I can safely share my adventure tomorrow. I can’t decide if it’s a big deal or not, and I guess I won’t know until the final editing hits the TV screen and I see if for myself if it was a big deal or not. Tomorrow […]
A Zucchini Round-Up
Do you have an over-abundant zucchini plant right now? Mine isn’t exactly over-abundant, but it is keeping me nicely supplied in fresh green Summer squash. So I thought that today I would simply point out several of the zucchini recipes in my Recipe Trove for those who need something new […]
It’s Festival Weekend!

Street Food!
And I’m not talking about greasy deep-fried fair food either. Yesterday I was going to do a couple of things with zucchini and then tell you about them today. The day ran away from me quicker than I expected, but there was one saving grace. The mail truck brought me […]
Revisiting A Favorite
I haven’t made this recipe in a long time. For a while it was Andy’s favorite, and we made it quite a bit, so I got a little sick of it. It’s a recipe for Thai BBQ Beef that I got from a recipe card. You know, those recipe collections […]
Come out of lurkdom!
Okay Tummy Treasure fans, it’s time to come out of lurkdom and tell me how you top your burgers. What is your favorite way to top your hamburger? Simple ketchup and mustard? Caramelized onions? Or do you prefer a more upscale treatment? Next week I have an unusual opportunity and […]
A Garden Oddity
It’s been a while since I’ve done a garden update. Every day I feel like I learn something new. Yesterday I learned that I need to read my seed packets BEFORE I choose that packet of seeds. I had been picking cucumbers yesterday and as I did so I glanced […]
Anyone Can Cook!
Last Friday was an event for our family. We decided it was time to take our kids to their first ever big screen movie experience. Going to see a movie is just something that we’ve not been interested while our children were young. While they do on occasion sit through […]
Missing Post
Sorry All. I had to delete the post from the other day about Pesto and all the comments. I had the worst spam I’ve ever seen and for some reason Blogger would not let me delete it this morning. I apologize if anyone saw it and was offended by it. […]
A New Convenience Product
We have become huge fans of tostadas in our house. They make an excellent way to use up leftovers, and are also extremely quick to put together. I couldn’t tell you what it really is that makes the difference to the kids when it comes to a tostada versus a […]
Everyday Pasta
I returned to my cookbook challenge this week and didn’t even realize it. Everyday Pasta by Giada De Laurentiis is a book I picked up simply because. I enjoy both of Giada’s other cookbooks and assumed this would be no exception. My kids love pasta, so a book devoted to […]
