So…um, this is awkward. I’ve been meaning to write an entry for awhile now and it looks like it’s been more than two months since I last did. Whoops. And here we are not only in 2015, but midway through the second month of 2015. Yeah sorry about that. I did get around to making…

You’ll need… Boneless, skinless chicken breast(s) or cutlets* 1 egg Italian breadcrumbs Olive Oil Spaghetti Sauce Parmesan cheese Shredded Mozzarella cheese *number depends on how many people are eating.

Mmm…burgers
Living on a third floor apartment we aren’t allowed to have any form of grill or open fire on our balcony. (Because of fire marshal codes here in Florida.) We tried for years to perfect various cooking techniques for making a burger indoors on an electric stove – to universally disastrous results. We thought burgers…
No Patience for Fiddly Bits Today
I keep starting projects today but I find I just can’t focus enough to finish them. For example: I have 3″ of 8″ of a chain maille bracelet (custom order) done which was hours of frustration. And now, I find after getting the first three inches done, I cannot for the life of me get…
Touch of Winter
As we left John’s Pass on Friday, a cool wind started to blow. It was the herald of our refreshing touch of winter this weekend. Friday night brought first rain, then crazy, strong winds. Living in Florida, that’s how you know a front is moving in; it always comes in on the wind. We woke…
Daily Life
Haven’t had much exciting to post about lately; just going about daily life. The weekend we ran some errands and got out a bit. Love isn’t allowed to run yet post-op but he is allowed to walk so I made us get out and walk around Saturday. Sunday, he did breakfast with his family but…

Still Sick, Medical Bills & Day Job Update
So I’m still dealing with the cold that I woke up with out of nowhere on Saturday. My poor lips are all cracked and split, my nose is red and scaly and now everything is turning to chest congestion so I’ve added coughing up nasty crap to my runny nose. Super fun and oh so…
Labor Day Steak Love
Had a DELICIOUS dinner tonight. Decided like most Americans, we needed a steak for our holiday weekend. We lack a BBQ (3rd floor apartment with strict fire code prohibiting them) but, we can still cook one up in the oven. So we headed over to Whole Foods. The last two times we went there, we…

Holiday Cookie Recipe – Sugar Cookies
Sugar Cookie Recipe I know there’s a million out there but this is my mom’s. I grew up eating them and I still love them dearly. They make a thinner cookie that’s crispier. If you’re looking for a fat, softer one, this isn’t it. Don’t let that fool you though; they’re still really delicious and…
Holiday Cookie Recipe – Tea Biscuits
Tea Biscuits I can’t say for sure if this is the formal name for these cookies or not. A search for “tea biscuits” brings up hundreds of results. All I can tell you is that my mom made these when I was a kid and I’ve always loved them. The dough is very simple but…
