We’ve been having some pretty chilly days lately. The kind of days when you come in from outside and still keep your coat on for a while because you are just cold to the bone. Today I went to my daughter’s house to work (a really tough concept with my grandson there).
She made us lunch and it warmed me right up. I wanted to share a photo with you as she presented the meal to me. It was so cute 
Does someone do something in your kitchen that totally annoys you? I wanted to share my list with you, then you can share yours. Hopefully our lists aren’t too long! Okay here goes mine;
So there you have it. Wow, this is food therapy for me, I feel better already just getting them off my chest. Can anyone relate to any of these pet peeves I have? Please share!
I remember the first time I had chai tea, it was on ice. We were living in Las Vegas at the time and my daughter and I walked about a mile and a half to our local Starbucks. You can do this if you go early in the morning, before the heat sets in.
I really liked the flavor of the iced chai tea and my daughter thought it was “unusual”. We had brought our dog with us on the walk and on the return home we had to call for a pick up, we had pooped the poor pup out! [Read more...]
Isn’t that how the commercial goes? “Aren’t you glad you have Glad?” Well, John sure is glad I found this alternative to saran wrap at Costco.
It’s Glad Press ‘N Seal and it works just like saran wrap…well, without the struggle that is. Just ask my son-in-law how much he loves fighting with the saran wrap at meal clean-up time
John really likes using this wrap to seal and store fresh hamburger patties just as they show on the front of the box. He is extra careful with freezing any foods, so he slips them inside a freezer bag for extra protection.
When we have burgers he just cuts them apart with scissors as we use them. No more prying frozen patties apart, that’s a thing of the past. I like to use this wrap to cover bowls of leftovers in the fridge. You don’t have to fight with it like saran wrap, and because you cannot see what is in the bowl you are more likely to check on your leftovers! Isn’t that tricky?
With a family of pancake lovers (my favorite being banana pancakes), it can get really frustrating real quick to use a frying pan to make pancakes.
We like to eat every Sunday breakfast together, so when pancakes are on the menu, we pull out the GE grill. [Read more...]
