Happy National Trail Mix Day! (Contest Over)

Happy Trail Mix Day! It’s 8:30 so you have three and half hours on the east coast to eat some trail mix. You won’t regret it.

A couple of weeks ago Em from Bear Naked Granola emailed me asking if I’d try out their new line of trail mixes. Yes indeed. They came last week [...]

Brunch Time

I didn’t get hungry until about 12:30 not because of a certain encounter with mini muffins yesterday or anything. No sir. For Lunch I was in the mood for bolognese and a salad. I made tomato sauce from scratch yesterday.  I’ve gotten it down to a fine art. The tomato sauce is good, you can [...]

Mini Muffin Madness

Chinese buffet. Can it be done? Can I control myself with never ending egg rolls, ice cream, fried rice and [...]

It’s Not You, It’s Me

Let me start by saying that I don’t like cantaloupe. It annoys me. It’s the cheap filler in fruit cups. So when I passed a bin of locally grown ones at Harvest Moon yesterday I surprised myself by putting one in my cart. Maybe it will taste better?

Nope still cantaloupe. Although fresh and [...]

What does the title mean? It means that I finally decided to do Couch to 5k . I tweeted and Krissie delivered. Her post about how to get started was very informative and helpful.

This is how we get down at the Artisan [...]
