I'm not a fan of New Year's resolutions...I think they should be made daily and this pretty much summarizes my life goals! 😁 How about you?

Oh yeah baby!! 😍🎉 With all the shipping disruptions...I'm tickled to see this! If you checked out my post about wasabi and vanilla...I will be making an alcohol free vanilla syrup to cook with! Very excited to try it! Wasabi is on the bucket list but I'm trying to decide whether to jump in and buy some root at a ridiculous price or just get the powder to try making real wasabi paste.

In honor of hump day....
What do you think? Would you try it? Kinda pricey for a staple perhaps.
40 week baby bump western maternity shoot and nail nonsense...that last color was hard to capture...they say easy to apply 🤦😂😂😂 yeah right! It does beat getting a mani at a salon though in $ and time. I guess we'll see tomorrow what color I picked 😜
2022-01-05 05:42:13 +0000 UTC View PostReal wasabi is on my bucket list along with real vanilla extract...what else shall we add to the list to make? I'm going to start gathering ingredients and tools 💗
Here's an interesting video about wasabi and I'll add one on vanilla shortly 😋

My latest obsession 😍 I'm on the hunt for a large onyx or marble one to make salsa, pesto, wasabi and such in quantity. It seems like two to three cup capacity might be what I'll be stuck with but I'm not giving up yet! The larger mortar and pestle in the background is granite, it chipped on the edge during shipping... disappointed in that material so I'm checking out some other materials to see if they are going to hold up.

Darn it! I thought I'd come up with an original idea...fresh rosemary and lemon slices in my refrigerator pickles.... nope, there are actually recipes online of course with rosemary...🤦 Guess we will see how pickled Rosemary tastes in a few days! 😂😋

This...is THE muffin recipe of all recipes... seriously!! I triple it to make 24 muffins (a half cup cookie scoop fills these perfectly) and usually skip the struesel topping, although they're wonderful with it too. I use whole wheat flour and they're amazing! This morning I subbed one cup of buckwheat flour and Beau made a simple lemon glaze...oh my!! Perfection! This recipe can be used as a base for a variety of muffins...sub out soaked craisins and add some orange extract, or do grated carrots, some soaked raisins, walnuts and pineapple chunks, or chopped apples and walnuts... experiment with different extracts and spice combinations or make them plain. 🥰😋

What's everyone doing this evening? Just a low key evening here... littles are with friends...just beau and I, not feeling quite myself yet... I'm snacking on this weird combo, keeping it light tonight. I promise it's delish!!! Have you ever had sesame candies or halva!? This reminds me of them... Although truthfully I've never had real halva. I suppose I'm going to have to locate a jar of tahini and pull out the candy thermometer sometime soon and try making some! 😊😋😜
On another note, I've heard this squeezable tahini can make a great salad dressing! If you decide to make your own halva, you will want to get the tahini in a jar because the squeezable is not thick enough.

It's been a long week... Starting to feel like myself a bit again. End of the month and beginning of a new year! Tippers and PPV purchasers watch your messages 😘

Homemade pizza and REAL reindeer 👀🦌💞 Tickled we got to visit these adorable creatures visiting near us...I was a little shocked to learn they cost around 10k apiece! 😬 I was also surprised at how small they were, shoulders came about to my hip.🛷🦌😊☃️❄️😍🎅

Nothing like a long soak, hot herbal tea and then some peace and quiet enjoying the tree the littles put up yesterday. I've discovered Apple juice concentrate sweetens/flavors my tea nicely and I'm certain it's a bit healthier than sugar. Honey works too but I like the apple flavor.

I love red poinsettia plants at Christmas time...I've seen the pink and ivory varieties as well, but this lavender and blue really caught my attention too! What do ya think? 😍
2021-12-17 17:18:49 +0000 UTC View PostWinds picked up, rain turned to ice, power blinked a few times but thankfully stayed on...had to reconnect a heat duct and deal with a little sewer mess...I'm beat...so I didn't get to shoot everything I had planned.... maybe another time. You'll find 14 never before posted and some choice selections from previous PPV posts. 🔥💞😘😊 Baby bump/maternity

I had fresh spinach and basil that needed used up so I ground up some walnuts to make a zesty pesto sauce and threw together some easy homemade pizzas for the littles... Petite diced canned tomatoes, fresh onion slices...Polished off before I could get a finished picture, apparently they were good! No complaints about all the veggies 😁 I desperately need to go cheese shopping because while cheddar is good, some mozzarella and Parmesan would have stepped things up a bit. 😋🍕

It was one of those lazy, messy hair don't care mornings after a busy weekend...till this amazing thick beauty showed up in the mail! I originally saw these at a big box store of all places...so lush you'd think they'd be a hot item in some western wear boutique...Unfortunately, I didn't grab one at the time when I should have in the light pink plaid that caught my eye initially, but I was able to locate this one brand new on eBay... again, of all places 🤣....Score!!! I'm still going to look for the light pink one because this is one super fuzzy comfy flannel classic every cowgirl loves!
