I love to bake. Cooking…not so much. The daily grind of providing dinner for myself and my husband (who is a rather picky eater) can wear on me. Therefore, I have three basic requirements for a recipe: It can be prepared relatively quickly and easily. It tastes good to both of us. It is healthy…
Do you know what this means?
Have you ever seen this symbol before? If not, what would you think it meant if you saw it light up on your car dashboard? I’m not sure I’d have ever figured it out but when I showed it to David, he immediately knew it meant “low tire pressure”. How? Why? Does that really look…

I found the video below on the blog, The Apron Revolution and thought some of my readers might get a kick out of it. I especially enjoy seeing the houses, fashions, cars and architecture featured. I think one…
French Friday…Parlez-Vous Français?

Guest Post Friday – Red Beans and Rice
One of my Facebook friends who shares my love for New Orleans and its culinary pleasures posted the picture below the other day. He generously agreed to share his recipe.
