Sweet Baby Nursery

Sweet Baby Nursery

My new grandson, Nicholas, is one week old today, and he’s doing just great. He’s the cutest little snuggle bunny! I thought you might like to see some pictures of his nursery.

When my parents lived on the farm, my mother used to have an asparagus bed that produced a huge crop every spring, which she generously shared with me, so I have quite a collection of asparagus recipes. This is the one that I pull out most often when the those pretty green spears find their […]

Creative Therapy – Trying Something Different is a Good Thing

Sometimes it’s fun to try something different. Step outside your comfort zone and get a little funky and crazy!
