What’s Cookin’ – Chicken Salad Sandwiches

I got a great deal on a dozen boneless, skinless chicken breasts at the grocery store last week. Made Parmesan Chicken with 8 of them, then Hubby barbequed the remaining 4 last night. We made grilled chicken sandwiches for dinner and had 2 left over today so I got to make one of my favorites [...]

He had me at Hot Dog

YD, Hubby and I decided to attend a Cactus League baseball game at Scottsdale Stadium yesterday, Spring training home of the San Francisco Giants. It was around 80 degrees and we slathered on the sunscreen, which was a good thing. There were a lot of people frying out there and will be many sorry, sunburned [...]

It’s my potty and I’ll try if I want to

Check out this fancy princess-style potty chair — the Granddaughter would have loved it! When we were potty training the Granddaughter, I had picked her up from preschool one day and brought her home. As we came into the house through the kitchen, she kind of squealed, “Oh, Nana, I have to go potty,” and [...]

What’s Cookin’ – Fresh Pasta

Youngest Daughter has been bugging me to make fresh pasta for months now. Way back in the 90s, I bought a pasta maker off of an infomercial — the Popeil Automatic Pasta Maker. Laugh all you want, this thing works! So we had planned to get together today and make fresh pasta and watch movies [...]

Reading the “In Death” Series

Nora Roberts is one of my favorite authors — I’ve probably read everything she’s written. In fact, I’m finishing one of her trilogies right now. But she also writes under the pseudonym J.D. Robb and I’m absolutely hooked on the “In Death” series. I’ve never been a fan of science fiction and the series is set [...]
