Beach or mountains? Which do you prefer? Why? Living in South Florida, I take the beach for granted. We don’t go to the beach that often, but it’s always there, and it’s usually a wonderful, relaxing experience. Just today, Ken and I talked about going for a beach walk on…

What are your family’s top 3 favorite meals? I let a lot of the daily prompts go by, but I’ll respond to any that involve food. But oh my, is this one hard! Years ago, I read that everyone should have three weeks worth of meals that they could prepare.…

Continue reading →: Unusually Delicious
There’s a great song from the Andre Lloyd Webber musical Song and Dance, entitled Unexpected Song. Maybe I should actually title this post “unexpected tastes,” because the new recipe that I tried was, to me at least, an unusual combination of ingredients that proved to be unexpectedly delicious.

Today was one that was so much fun. We visited the Florida Oceanographic Center in Stuart. This is a center dedicated to conservation and education, with lots of interesting exhibits and programs. It may sound strange, but I think my favorite part was touching the stingrays. Before you start shouting,…

What book are you reading right now? I’m currently reading The Women by Kristin Hannah. This is somewhat of an unexpected read for me. As much as I love historical fiction, and as many WWII novels as I’ve read, I’ve avoided anything related to the Vietnam war. It just intersects…

Continue reading →: In Praise of the Schluck
Although three of my grandparents were Pennsylvania Dutch, and they all spoke at least a bit of the German dialect commonly called Pennsylvania Dutch, I only learned a few words. The only one I still use is the one I heard most often: Schluck. The term refers to a small…

Name the most expensive personal item you’ve ever purchased (not your home or car). I tend to be pretty frugal when I buy things for myself, but I made one splurge that looks more expensive than it actually was. A local jeweler was offering “grab bags:” gift bags with stones…

Continue reading →: Citrus and Cilantro
Fair warning: if you are a person who can’t eat cilantro, you might as well pass on this post. I’m talking about two dishes, both of which include cilantro. I cook so many different recipes that some of them, as Ken says, fall off the radar. We forget about them…

It feels strange now to go almost a week between posts, but we were out of town. We enjoyed visiting our son and his family in Orlando, and then spent a little time at Disney World. It was an opportunity to attend the Epcot Food and Wine Festival, something we’d…
