Five Minutes to Whole Grain Artisan Bread

Ed Note: I promised a whole grain version of my five minutes to Artisan Bread Recipe some time ago. It’s so simple the holidays may be a good time to try it. Serve with a hot, steaming, fragrant pot of soup!

Real or Artificial Christmas tree?

To do or not to do, that is the question! To get a real tree or an artificial tree was the choice Mary and I wrestled with over the Black Friday week-end. My late husband, Duane, insisted we decorate for the holidays with a REAL Christmas tree each year.

So one of our favorite […]

I was invited to two cookie exchanges this year. I normally don’t go to the cookie exchanges because of past experiences when I had to take home store bought cookies to replace my hours of hard work. These exchanges worked a little differently, we could pick and choose from the choices up […]
