Ok, enough already. I, once again, walked into the staff lounge to find more food…. Somehow, gourmet chocolates seem to lose their appeal when they are laying in front of me in mass quantities. But, I had to test one out, just for research purposes of course… Hmm, dark chocolate covered orange cream…I’m still on [...]

Hello All! I mentioned in Flavors of the Fall that I am a Big Ten Football fan. Monique asked who I cheer for…well, I grew up near Ann Arbor so Michigan is near and dear to my heart. But, my husband and his brother (and all their friends) went to Illinois and are pure Illini [...]

Stir It Up…

Howdy there everyone and Happy Last Day of Summer! I just rocked at work today! Because it’s crunch time, I have put myself on a strict schedule at work so that I can get all of my projects done on time, or even ahead of time. But, of course, even with my long to-do list, [...]

Morning Friends! I went to bed last night thinking that I may have to run indoors this morning. Most of the weather reports called for rain in the early morning. But, I was very happy to wake up to find that it was only a light mist. I woke up very early this morning – [...]

Evening everyone! With the official start of fall just a day and a half away, I thought I’d do a little fall decorating this afternoon. This made me wonder – Fall is my favorite time of year, but what was my favorite thing about the Fall? Well, there are so many things that I love [...]

Who Has the Best Veggie Burger?

By jennifer | Published: September 19, 2009
Afternoon everyone! I didn’t get to bed until after midnight! I was sucked into watching V for Vendetta – one of Scott’s favorite movies. I’ve never had an interest in seeing it, but I caught the last half of it last night and decided to watch the rest of it. Pretty dark movie, but still [...]

Late Summer Risotto…
