The 2010 Banned Books Celebration will be held from September 25 through October . Here’s a cute little video produced for the 2009 Banned Books Week celebration: I don’t think I’ll ever quite understand book banning. I mean, if something offends you, don’t read it. And as far as kids are concerned, encouraging them to…
Memory Lane Monday…Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House
I watched this movie for the first time probably 20 years ago with cousins, I think on New Year’s Eve. I loved it the first time and I’ve loved it each of the perhaps dozen times I’ve watched it since. The clip below was used for a paint commercial a few years ago. It makes…

My Life in the Country
Once upon a time there was a little girl who spent too much time in her head and reading books…often about “olden times”, and living on a farm, and such as that.

French Friday – Sort of…

Guest Post Friday – Organizing Your Recipes
I’ve been thinking about the best way to organize my recipes and this just might be it. Thanks for the wonderful idea, Dawn! Here at Dee’s Kitchen we get some WONDERFUL recipes, but how do we keep them all neat and safe? Yes, we can save them on the computer, until the next crash, that…
A Change of Seasons
Today was the first full day of Autumn. I’ve been in a state of denial about the changing of the seasons and the end of my beloved summer but it seems everyone and their brother is in cahoots and determined to make me face facts. You know, it isn’t that I dislike Fall. It’s really…
Easy Vegetarian Enchiladas
Once again I failed to get a picture but it turned out so delicious that I have to share anyway. The original recipe calls for cooking in a crockpot but I just put them in the oven. You can see the original (slightly different) recipe here. Ingredients: 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed 1…
