read moreIn my last post, which was almost a month ago, I explained what was keeping me away from this blog. And today, here we go again! We've been in New England for three weeks spending time with family. It's all good. In the earlier days I would've queued up posts to periodically appear during an absence of this duration but I just didn't get that done ahead of time this go-round. You'll never find me

read moreI know, I know; I've been AWOL with no clue as to when I'd return or why I had disappeared. The last you knew I had my cast taken off and I was footloose and fancy-free again. Well, let's just say that was a very short lived state! Sigh. After a few days of catching up with all the tasks that required two free hands I contracted some sort of virus that presented with almost every symptom you

read moreThere's been a lot of things happening in the kitchen lately, all good. After we returned from our trip up north I decided to try out a recipe given to me by an extended family member, for a "topper" to enhance Augie's kibble. He's an extremely picky eater, turns his nose up at a LOT of things, and basically eats like a cat; nibbling here and there when he feels like it. We've done all of the

He'd been sick for the last few months, we kept up constant communication with Mr. G's sister, Barbara, and knew of his rapidly deteriorating condition but still were not prepared for that phone call informing us that

I'm having good success in Mom Training classes, she thinks that she's the one in charge and that she's training me but we all know who's the boss. She and Dad are still very busy in the kitchen every day. He with getting the cabinetry all fitted and Mom with trying out the new appliances and testing new (to her) recipes;

We checked on the peaches daily and watched them grow and ripen to perfection. I was
