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.
If It’s Monday . . .
It must be a Mellow Day. Mondays at home need to be mellow for two very good reasons. First off, weekends are usually busy. There are the household chores, and the fun stuff sandwiched in-between. Monday is the first work day, so that’s always a bummer.

Sometimes I’m a little slow at putting things together as they should be shared. Especially when those moments mean everything to me. June began with a great deal of emotion that I am only now ready to share.

One of the best parts of summer, believe it or not, is that we don’t have a hundred choices of what to do or where to go on a Saturday morning. In our part of the country, spring and fall are busy. Once the heat begins festivals and street fairs come to a halt.

Once upon a time when Kiddo was a kid, we had a tradition for Fat Tuesday. We made Pancakes. You know, colorful Shove Tuesday Pancakes. Gosh, it’s been a while.

Once upon a time when it came to entertaining, our big house with a big pool was the place to be. Big house gone, along with that over-the-top big life. In many ways I’m glad. Without all the noise and distractions, life is better.

Today is the Feast Day of Saint Thomas, the Apostle. He was one of the twelve chosen by Christ. And yet Thomas seems to get the short end of the stick so often. Doubting Thomas. Demanding proof with his own eyes before believing.

Welcome to another Tuesday in my kitchen. While the rest of the world calls this Taco Tuesday, in our house it’s Tijuana Tuesday – so anything with a Mexican flare is a-okay with me.

Within the Catholic Faith, each month has a special dedication to a different doctrine of faith. This is different from the Church Liturgical Calendar. The Liturgical Calendar does not begin on January 1 and end the last day in December. It begins with Advent. It ends the Saturday following Christ the King.

Boy, can I tell you some stories about Mai Tai Cocktails and a very stuborn husband. And this is the perfect time to tell it.

Today is the Feast Day of two pillars of the Christian Faith. It is the Feast Day of Saints Peter (Simon) and Paul (Saul). Saint Peter was the rock on which Christ built his church. Saint Paul was instrumental in bringing the faith to the Gentiles.

On January 3, 1959 Alaska became the 49th state to join the Union. Boy, does that make me feel old. When I was born, America consisted of only the 48 adjoining or Continental States.

Today is the Feast of Our Lady of Perpetual Help. This is one of those special days that is not found in scripture or in a vision but comes instead from another aspect of the Catholic Faith – oral tradition. The Church is rich in oral tradition.

Don’t you just love that photo? It’s an Emus just wandering about at the Hilo Zoo. Emus are some of my favorite birds because they have a lot of dim-witted personality.

Baja California is a magical place. There is the beauty of the desert combined with the blues of the ocean. Hubby and I both have a strong appreciation for the desert and the sea. Baja is one of those places that can steal your breath away for so many reasons. The people, the landscape and God’s creatures big and small.
