Silk tie dyed eggs — how to and pictures

Its egg time and we usu­ally do some­thing. Usually we dye eggies the old fash­ioned way, with egg dyes. Then we may stick some leaves or what­ever we find around the house and make pat­terns on them while col­or­ing. But that has been the extent of our cre­ativ­ity. Not bad, but it always can be […]

Easy peasy hard work soup

Kids can be hard work. They sure can.
Kids can be easy peasy. They sure can.

Having ugly days, days when things just seem, well, ugly
Enjoying star­ing at the […]

A little slice of sandwich heaven

I am a glut­ton.
I love my food. I love other people’s food. I just love food, period.
But I am picky, it needs to be good food to bring me the full gamut of plea­sure.
.
My piece of heav­enly lunch, which ful­filled my enjoy­ment require­ments:
A sprouted chick­peas home­made hum­mus
and  gen­tly caramelized onions and cap­sicums with a dash […]
