Planting the seeds

          As obvious as it sounds and as many times as I’ve heard plant a seed and it will grow, finally, planting my own seeds woke me up to the true meaning of that. As you know from my previous post I started my own vegetable garden from the ground up […]

My Frittata

My frittata always has sweet potatoes, and most of the time a white potato or two. The rest of the ingredients vary due to whatever I have on hand. I don’t actually measure ingredients and sometimes depending on how many veggies I’ve added I need to add more eggs than I mentioned below; the eggs […]

What Gets You Juiced Each Day?

Have you ever agreed to to something that you weren’t completely excited about doing? I have many times; maybe too many times. I agreed to lead a talk on a specific subject. I know the subject, I’m not worried that I don’t know enough to lead a short thirty minute talk; it’s the talking part […]
