Location: Italy Let’s start with this: there are people out there who are skillful at making pasta and then there are skillful eaters. I fall under the latter, along with Baxter the dog. Baxter prefers uncooked, fresh pasta left to dry on the counter. Should Baxter stop in to visit you, please have approximately a […]Read Post ›
First up: MOROCCO Morocco was first up for International Foods Tuesday (IFT) or what I referred to as “Enrichment Dinners.” I think we decided on Morocco because I wanted to make a chicken dish in my tagine. This whole ‘tagine idea’ was a bit of a bust because in planning for this meal, I discovered […]Read Post ›
On March 15, 2020 we sat outside with our neighbors, around a backyard fire pit. Staring at flames, listening to the crackling and popping of burning wet wood. All whilst shaking our heads and wondering aloud what quarantine was going to look like for us. We quickly agreed to The Bubble: six people, four dogs. […]Read Post ›

it’s an honor to have captured a few moments from the wedding of these two. proof that the most special of days are all about the emphasis on to love, honor and care for the ones you love.
babe joined us for some snacks and chit-chat. g: hey babe! babe: hi. look at my shirt. cool, right? there’s dog poop in the backyard. g: want some snacks and juice? babe: are they special? g: yes babe: great – i prefer those.
Clearly this goes without saying, it’s been way too long since we’ve shared a Mini Confidential (4 years). I’m not so sure I would say that it’s been “a choice”; instead, I would say that life has happened. Each trip around the sun seems to go by so much faster now that we’re older.wiser.legally able […]Read Post ›
i haven’t posted a single thing since January. Wow! All it took was a little picnic, out in the fresh air, with some good people to get me thinking. (Yay) When I heard about the picnic, I immediately grabbed my camera (and my homemade bean and cheese burritos) and headed out the door. It’s nice […]Read Post ›
