Vegetarian Dinners: Chili
I watched a movie on Netflix Streaming Sick Fat and Nearly Dead and went on a 10-day juice fasting reboot the moment the credits rolled. More on this in a later post. It absolutely CHANGED my life…for 10 days! LOL! How to keep the good thing going became a challenge. The dilemma for our family and for most families is we don’t eat enough vegetables so when I started to re-integrate food through a 15 day juice during the day + dinner at night I knew I couldn’t go back to the way I used...

Read MorePie Treat!
Treated myself to an apple pie at that fast food joint we all know. A reward for not being a big baby and stopping the whole Squirrel Dome Clearing on Saturday when I got tired and wanted to quit. I could have easily done it and my men would have carried me like a football HERO to the house, but alas the punishment continued until it was all cleared. In case you are wondering There is no such thing as bad pie! Okay that is not true. Sugar-free Blueberry pie ( saccharin) with...
Read MoreNational Pie Day: Pumpkin Pie Greatness
Emerging from hibernation for this recipe and this day. Weee! Read More about National Pie Day. I make a few pumpkin pies around the holidays. Jack is quite the Pumpkin Pie Man. I have tried fresh pumpkin … great if you can get it, bake halved pumpkin cut sides down 350 degrees 40 minutes, scoop out seeds, then flesh. Don’t even try cutting the rind off a raw pumpkin, you will just end up in angry tears. Tried the can pumpkin with the spices inside, all brands too. Yet I...
