Somehow, in my kitchen full of dishes (and there are A LOT of dishes in my kitchen), I do not have a double boiler. It’s really kind of funny considering how many cooking utensils and gadgets I’ve been given over the years because no one has ever thought to give me one. Probably because I’ve [...]

January 21, 2011 By 2 Comments
While I do not buy all organic foods (that would be nearly impossible to do in our small town and on our limited budget), there are a few things, like milk, that I prefer to buy organic and that have become readily available around here. Still, any help with the higher prices of organic foods [...]

January 7, 2011 By 2 Comments

I have to admit that sometimes I get stressed out about gift-giving during Christmastime. I want to do something nice for so many people, but to be honest, gifts for all my girlfriends just isn’t always in the budget.
