Here we are, Little League baseball season once again, the third time since I started this blog – time flies, eh?! I have to say, it feels good to be back in the fresh air and warm sun, eating a little dust, catching up with the Baseball Moms (outside of McCoys, ha), and watching my…

Heck if I’m not seeing green out my window, lalalaaa! Even if it snows again, that green isn’t going away until like, October, baby. Yes, we Minnesotans have officially stepped out of our dreadful black-n-white photo-prison into the alternate world we call Not Winter, like Alice Through the Friggin’ Looking Glass… Man, is it good….

I don’t drive all that much, so rising gas prices – while a shocker – aren’t outright killing me. However, I do eat all that much, and YOWZA am I getting socked at the grocery checkout! I’ll admit, morel mushrooms and fresh fish are never bargains, but man, just the usual fruits, veggies, bread, and…

Spring unsprung and a sick son (bad cough), yet doing our best to keep chins up. Good thing we Minnesotans are hardy, yah, otherwise we might complain or something. Ahem. I’ll stick to the highlights. Saturday night, John and I attended a fundraiser. Wha? Alright, I admit the term fundraiser doesn’t usually conjure images of…

Fava beans. Love them. Hardly ever see them in stores ’round these parts, but scored some today at Lakewinds Natural Foods (lovely, lovely store) in Chanhassen. They’re a major pain to deal with (shell, blanch, peel, then cook), but so worth it in the end – bright green, tender, nutty, sweet. Just…yum. Check out this…

Halloo! Still alive here! Sorry to be away for so long, I can’t even totally blame it on being out of town since I’ve been back since Monday. (Oops.) John and I snuck away to Big Sur for a long weekend, to celebrate his birthday, and had ourselves a grand old time. What a scene,…

Happy Birthday John! OK, it’s a couple of days early, but I won’t be able to blog on the actual big day so… Consider this post a free pass to eat a disgusting amount of chocolate, and oh! Perhaps some prepared foods if we can put our hands on something worthy (that’s his thing, prepared…

As I slowly blinked awake this morning, a sunshine song came to my lips. I sleepily hummed and sang it a bit as I shuffled around for my slippers… Then I stopped short, as it dawned on me…what the heck song is this? Good Lord, am I singing a Chipmunks’ song? (I can’t stand The…

Is it…Spring? Dare I say the word? Oh, it’s still colder than a witches you-know-what out there, brrr. But the snow-rain mix has ceased, the sun has peeked out, and the forecast is for sunshine! Sweet, warm, sunshine, well into the week. I think we may have had our last snowstorm. I think I may…

Such a pretty, gray day. I just love snow, ice, freezing rain, slush, and gusting winds in April. Refreshing! Plus, it’s so great for the hair, shoes, and spirit. Yeah. Actually, it is good for the spirit…to get the giggles. Which is exactly what happened last night, after another amazing performance of Jersey Boys, when…
