Jersey girl,Public Library Information Assistant, yarnie, crafter, baker, pretty damn good cook, Mom to 4 wonderful men and 2 amazing daughters in law. According to my husband my superpower is creating a delicious meal out of whatever I find in the fridge.
I've been making bread/rolls/bagels etc for almost a year now. #GBBO is bread week and suddenly words like claggy and under proofed are running on a loop in my head. Thankfully Paul and Prue are not my dinner guests tonight.

I filmed it. The fly eventually climbed up my arm, to my shoulder then flew off. Happy Mother's Day, Mom.

Before my mom died, she told us that she'd visit us as a single fly. Today, for the 3rd time in 12 years, she visited.
This fly was at the sliders to the patio. My dog was barking at it. I put my hand on the rug and it hopped on. I walked into the living room with it on my hand.

Friends for over 45 years. Meeting in our hometown for a pre-holiday lunch and handmade ornament exchange has become a wonderful tradition.

Welcoming December with a festive tablescape. My German gnome takes center stage.
This time last year we were headed there to see our son and daughter in law. Would love to be there now.

Happy Thanksgiving BlueSky folks!
As I get ready to prepare the chestnuts for our dinner, I figured I'd share my tested-over-30 years roasted chestnut recipe.
Enjoy!

I am obsessed with PastryMade embossed rolling pins. First 3 are cookies for this week's festivities. They will be baked from frozen to preserve the embossing. It's such an easy way to elevate a cookie.

I did my first live poetry reading last night during an Artist's Reception in our Municipal Art Gallery. It was nerve wracking and exhilarating.
The next one is in January, fingers crossed for another invitation to read.
