I was so very blessed to know my Grandmother, aka “Nanny”. She turned 93 about two weeks before she passed away in 2015. There is so much in my high school history book that she actually LIVED THROUGH. I’m amazed at some of the stories she has told me. One thing nagged me though. It

This month’s Photo Challenge theme was Nom Nom Nom. The holidays are definitely a time for food. The day after Halloween, we dumped out Mini’s trick-or-treat pillowcase. There is a house in my parents’ neighborhood that hands out a GALLON SIZE Ziploc bag FULL of goodies. They’ve been doing it at least the last three

I have to say I enjoyed this one. The holidays come with their emotional baggage, but are usually a good time. Well, onto the pics! Tis The Season… for hot soup! Our loaded potato soup, specifically. We start with a potato soup base and add cheddar, bacon bits and grilled chicken chunks. So. Insanely. Good.
