Huevos Tostadas!

Does this look like a freezer meal? I mean, who do

Does this look like a freezer meal? I mean, who doesn’t want a homemade gyro (or in this case, a gyro salad) that takes only minutes to make?

I brought home this gorgeous cyclamen plant before

I brought home this gorgeous cyclamen plant before Valentine’s Day. I had the perfect spot for it on my kitchen island. It didn’t agree. I gave up and put it in the garage for easily 2 weeks. No, the garage is not heated. It just sat there. About a week ago, my poinsettia went out with the other winter decor and I set the cyclamen in its spot, gave it some water and a little indoor blooming plant fertilizer and here come the blooms! Turns out it just needed more light.
Same, sweet plant. Same! ☀️

The category is “Women who’ve taught me great

The category is “Women who’ve taught me great things” … work hard, life isn’t fair, God is good, love each other, ask for forgiveness, forgive each other, kindness matters, pray, don’t complain, share, pray more, serve, appreciate nature, be grateful in all circumstances.

Finally made the trip to Harlan, Iowa yesterday to

Finally made the trip to Harlan, Iowa yesterday to have breakfast at @milkandhoneyiowa! This place has been on my list for years and I’m so angry with myself for waiting this long. Ever seen a breakfast burrito so perfectly packed with all the goods? 💯
Not gonna wait so long to go back and test out the lunch menu, that’s for sure!

Here’s the answer to yesterdays question regardi

Here’s the answer to yesterdays question regarding what you thought I would choose from the antique store photo (second photo) … a pewter plate and mini bowl!! To be fair, the plate was kind of hidden in the stack but a few people zeroed in on the pewter items. 🙌 I also mentioned that I have a fun thing coming up on Wednesday that I bought this for … that fun thing?? The @helloiowa13 show on @whotv13 in Des Moines! It’s a live cooking segment … show starts at 11am … not sure what time my segment will be but I do know I will be able to share the segment after it airs. So stay tuned to see what recipe I’ve chosen to “make” in the 4 minutes allotted and how I will use these pretty pewter items to show off the food!
Oh, and also, I chose this plate because it will make a beautiful addition to my 4th of July kitchen decor!

Just in case you’re wondering, it’s still wint

Just in case you’re wondering, it’s still winter in Minneapolis! ❄️

We made it to MPLS to pet sit for our kids just before the snow started. Estimating 15”-18” of super fluffy snow over the past couple days. The kids across the street have been out shoveling and playing and a couple stopped by selling Girl Scout cookies. We stocked up … don’t want to starve if we’re stuck here for a while! 😉
