Today is National Chicken Noodle Soup Day and National Good Samaritan Day. In the three years we’ve been acknowledging these two National Days, only once have we served up Chicken Noodle Soup. Guess this year we’re skipping the soup yet again.

I'm a wife, mother, grandmother and avid home cook.I believe in eating healthy whenever possible, while still managing to indulge in life's pleasures.

Welcome to Eat Your Noodles Day. In the past, we’ve shared Asian and Filipino recipes that made noodles the star. Most recently it was all about a noodle side dish. This time around I thought something from Hubby’s heritage might be nice.

Don’t you just love it when little videos pop up on your social feed? It doesn’t take long before the marketing department knows just how to press your buttons. I generally get three types of reels – food related, baby related or animals just being too darn cute.

Choices, choices, choices. Today is Frozen Food Day, Oreo Day and a Thursday. In the past we’ve celebrated Frozen Foods Day with things like Make Now Freeze for Later Meatballs.

Many, many moons ago Hubby and I hung out with a couple who were much younger than us, but that didn’t seem to matter. Most of our friends back then (and now) are much younger than us. The wife was from Oklahoma, the husband a wild bush pilot from upstate New York.
