Stuffed Squash
I love autumn! I crave it with my soul so from the moment September rolled around I needed to make something that screamed fall. This is what I came up with and it was glorious. Things to remember….substitute ingredients as needed or to taste. This really was a throw it together and hope for the […]

Diet Changes
So I am no longer plant-based. I decided that trying to restrict my diet in that way was stressful to me. In addition to that I can honestly say that being plant-based did not improve my health or make me feel better in the long run. I know this will disappoint many of my readers. […]

New Year….Old Me
I see the old adage of new year…new me and just laugh. A changing of calendars makes no difference to the essence of me. Shall I lose 50 lbs this year…probably not. Shall I try to diet this year….almost certainly! Shall I become super efficient and get all my work done….certainly not! So New Year….Old […]

Weekly menu 10/09 – 16/09/2020
This week is going to be mostly shopping from my freezer and pantry. My plan last week went out the window a bit. I cooked for the family but did other stuff with what I had. I have found myself with lots of food leftover so we need to work through that. 1. Steamed vegetables […]

Country potatoes
Emily loves potatoes. She would live on potatoes alone if I let her….just mashed potatoes! Country potatoes are more of a cross between mashed potato and chips in my opinion. Em plans to put her potatoes in a wrap with sausagemeat, eggs and salsa as breakfast burritos like w had back in the US. Alan […]
