A Spring Walk in the Park

by ~Aunt Mae (~Mrs. R) on April 13, 2011

The Patriarch, Arrow and I went for a lovely walk in the park on Saturday.  We hadn’t really been out for a good long walk all winter.  Too cold and rainy to be enjoyable.  And the rain, well in reality it doesn’t rain hard here.  But it drizzles… a lot.  The skies may be gray, [...]

by ~Aunt Mae (~Mrs. R) on April 7, 2011

The Patriarch is a retired veteran who served his country for over 21 years.  His military service meant that he worked, usually well beyond 40 hours a week for a paltry paycheck.  No overtime pay.  No comp time.  No say in the least.  He put his life on the line many times in order to [...]

Butternut Honey Soup – Gluten & Dairy Free

by ~Aunt Mae (~Mrs. R) on April 7, 2011

It is still c-o-l-d here in the Pacific Northwest.  The temperatures might not sound all that cold, but with the rainy, wet weather the cold goes right though you and stays with you.  And since we heat with a pellet stove, the back of the house stays colder much longer.  Brr.  Yes, and that is [...]
