Continue reading →: Make it THIS Way!
If you’ve been reading the recipes I share, you know that I don’t develop my own recipes. Instead, I start with something from a cookbook and tweak it here and there. Most often, I’m cutting down quantities so that it works for just Ken and me. Leftovers are good, but…

I don’t know about you, but if I’ve eaten cheesecake at lunch, I’m really not interested in eating a lot for dinner. Even though Ken and I had both chosen a salad as our entree at Ocean Grill on Friday, we had decided to make a salad for dinner to…

I promised a post about our lunch in Vero Beach yesterday, because it was a delicious meal in an unusual setting. There aren’t many places where you can look out at the surf while you eat, but that’s a feature of the Ocean Grill. Built in 1941, it’s built on…

It’s not my intention to make those of you who are still experiencing cold weather or who are far from a coast, but I have to share some pictures I took this morning, as we walked on the beach at Vero Beach. We don’t really need to drive 80 miles…

When I posted the Ten to Try list of recipes I wanted to make in 2026, I included an eleventh recipe. It was a new dish that I planned to cook to celebrate New Year’s Eve. Plans aren’t always executed, and that one certainly wasn’t. I published my post on…

Food always seems to feature in any holiday or celebration at our house. Valentine’s Day is no different and, as usual, we’ve stretched it out beyond one day. We started out with Friday lunch at Cooper’s Hawk. Well, technically, we started with an early morning walk through Wellington’s equestrian preserve…

Our walk this morning took us through the equestrian preserve, but we didn’t see any horses. So it was time to go through old pictures. This was from one of Covid lockdown era suburban hikes.

Continue reading →: Little Bites, Big Taste
Last year, I wrote about how the Super Bowl is always an occasion for us to cook a special meal. This year was just a little different. Although I feel great, I still have three weeks left to my recovery period. Even if I wasn’t trying to limit myself, Ken…

Continue reading →: Late Christmas, and Other Fun Things
This week has been a busy one, as we spent time in Orlando with our son’s family. Although Ben came twice to help out after my surgery, we hadn’t seen Annie and Emmalyn since Thanksgiving. So, while we celebrated early Christmas with Luke, Alice, and Dante, we had late Christmas…

I spotted this great egret sitting on the canal bank as Ken and I were out for another chilly walk this morning. Alas, he took flight before I could get my phone out of my pocket and open. But I managed to catch him in flight. Thanks to the wonders…
