Several years ago at one of our girlfriend lunch days my friend, Alice, served us the most unusual meal! She fixed the same meal that David ate as he ran away from Absalom.

Tasty Tuesday: The Journey – Food for Life and Health
We’ve all heard the saying, “You are what you eat!” I’m not sure about the truth in that because, if true, I’d be a leaf of lettuce with legs! My good friend and I jokingly say, “We hope the good Lord doesn’t put us in charge of the lettuce patch in heaven because we’ve eaten… [Read More]
Tasty Tuesday: July is all about QUINOA!

Tasty Tuesday: Black-Eyed Pea Salad
Summertime-and-the-livin’-is-easy-life is getting real close! Mother’s Day weekend found us eating our delicious meal on the front porch of my daughter’s home. They live in a 100+ year old home and my son-in-law completely gutted the front porch and rebuilt it in true early 1900-style. He is a stickler of tradition and did a magnificent… [Read More]
