This is what I made with our leftover turkey, today. I got the recipe from Serena the farm chick. You can see it here.

Can you believe that I just tried a Whoopie Pie for the very first time? This is my second attempt, the first was a flop. I combined a couple of recipes for this and made them as our “something new Saturday” project. Whoopie pies: 1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour 2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder 1 1/2 […]

Ingredients: Mayonnaise Cream cheese Sour cream Bell pepper, chopped Onion, chopped Cheese Salt & pepper Fresh crab Just start mixing and fold in crab. Spread on buns, bread, rolls, english muffins or […]

Ingredients Clams: 1 tablespoon canola oil 6 sprigs fresh thyme 1/2 whole jalapeno, seeds removed and roughly chopped 6 cloves garlic, smashed 1 lemon, quartered lengthwise 1/2 cup white […]
Homemade with love by Tsasa (sil). I used Levi’s mom’s French bread recipe for hamburger buns and they turned out sort of huge. Riley versus burger. Rainy day owls. I had to dream up something to do with the children during Spring break so we didn’t all go crazy. It has been cold and snowy […]
My son, Riley, made my favorite chocolate cake recipe and I whipped up a batch of chocolate raspberry ganache in the morning. By the time afternoon rolled around and I was supposed to assemble the cupcakes, I could barely stay awake. This always happens when I am around 6 months along. My beautiful baby sister […]
Levi spent winter break making concrete counter tops and putting in new lighting over the serving counter. This is where we always serve the food, buffet style. It is in the middle of the house. A handy pass-through between the dining room and kitchen, but it does not get enough natural light. I thought I […]
This was my backdrop for most of December. Dry. A rare treat for those of us dwelling in the Pacific Northwest. I kept it simple this year. We made chocolate dipped Oreo lollipops and candy cane sugar cookies. For this year’s gift wrapping I bought burlap bags and a spool of jute twine. So easy. […]

Oh how I love anything that can be put in the slow cooker in the morn, long before happy hour. This scrumptious recipe is from Levi’s mom(and in the cookbook). A big hit with the whole family. There was a brawl in front of the crockpot. Beef & Pork BBQ 1 & 1/2 lb. boneless […]
