With his homemade crust, spicy tomato sauce, fresh tomatoes, peppers, mushrooms, garlic, onions and three kinds of shredded cheese, it will be incredible.  The plan is to make two Pizzas. One pizza is for week end feasting and the other […]

There are pumpkin pies, pumpkin cookies, pumpkin pancakes, and now, pumpkin curry. Using a base of chicken broth and coconut milk, with spices of curry, cumin, coriander, and cloves, added to onions, garlic and ginger, with a dash of cayenne pepper, pumpkin curry can warm you down to your toes!

Red Slicker

The season has changed when I put on the red slicker and barn boots to feed the puppies! My slicker is rubber, comes down below my knees, has a hood, and keeps me dry.  You see little kids wearing yellow versions of the same slicker.  I like my flaming red slicker better! Happy fall!!
