Wow! It’s been 3 months since I’ve been on here. It feels SO much longer! So much has happened, my daughter moved back home, I’ve been very busy with my business, I played most of the summer in the yard (we put in a garden) and in the neighbor’s pool!
I guess I just really needed to play for the summer. But, this week, school started again. So, as everyone knows, thats the unofficial end of summer. I know that we’re supposed to have 90 degree weather this Saturday, but let me tell you…. Summer is gone!
To some ears, that may sound sad, but to mine, it’s a pleasant sound. That means that it’s practically time to make and can my salsa and my speghetti sauce, and that it’s time to start thinking about the holidays!
Halloween… that’s like the only time of the year that I make stuffed bell peppers. Why? Because I call them “Baked Monkey Brains!” How can you have that at any other time than at Halloween?!?
Thanksgiving… Getting the whole family together to eat a single meal. What fun! It’s just the clean up that I hate! LOL!
Christmas… This year we all (hubby and me, my daughter and her boyfriend, both of my parents, and my brother and his two girls) are getting together at the coast for a week in a beach house. I will be coming up with recipes that will feed us all and also incorporate the leftovers (if there are any) soon.
New Years!.. has there ever been a better reason for dip???
Oh, the joys of feeding ones friends and family!
