Let’s try this again, shall we?
OK, I’d like to report that I’m totally organized and effectively prioritized but that would be a bald faced lie. The thing is, if I’m gonna spend great gobs of time posting to facebook, then I could just cut that out (mostly, I mean it IS facebook) and that would free up enough time to [...]

Quesadillas Revisited
We often have quesadillas for lunch. It’s just so quick and handy. This time I made ‘em cute with my Christmas tree cookie cutter. Big hit with the short folks around the ranch!
Journaling, Lunch and Cuteness
That’s pretty much all I’m willing to commit to until my headache is gone. Well, and laundry, a crockpot full of beans and some cornbread after while. Oh, and I need to plan the menu and make the grocery list. *Note: I am not teaching math while I have a headache. I’m sure this headache [...]

You’ll need: Flour Tortillas – 2 per Cheese, grated, it doesn’t matter what kind, pretty much leftovers, either meat [...]
Comfort Food – Tacos
This recipe is not wholly indulgent, but I must confess that those tortillas are not homemade. Oddly enough, I have paired the store bought tortillas with some produce from our backyard, organic garden. The result is fantastic! When I was in high school they served something vaguely similar to this and called it a burrito. [...]

Veggie Sandwich
This is the best sandwich in the world. Bar none. And since avocadoes are 3/$1 at my grocery this week, and hopefully for many weeks to come, I am really eating as many of these as I can one for lunch every day. It’s a simple recipe. For one sandwich you’ll need: ½ avocado, sliced [...]
