Sadly, I do not remember where I frist saw this recipe, so I can’t give them credit. The recipe originally called for crushed crutons, so I’ve left that in, but I usually use breadcrumbs instead. I know this sounds ridiculous but don’t expect a hamburger when you eat this… it …Read the Rest

What are the two ugly words I’m referring to? Weight Loss. It’s an ugly thing in our society. I see two forces pulling me in different directions. On one side is the news and the media, telling me that obesity is a rampant problem and making life hard for me …Read the Rest

This is a great little side dish, it’ll go with just about anything. You can make it light or heavy, depending on your tastes. I call for butter and 1/2 cup of parmesan cheese, which is a substantial coating across 2 pieces of squash. You can lighten it up with …Read the Rest

I’ve finished the second book in Carrie Jones’ Need series and I’m having trouble mustering much more than a “meh” about it. It wasn’t bad by any means, I think it just suffered from the book 2 blahs. Synopsis: Zara and her friends knew they hadn’t solved the pixie problem …Read the Rest

The latest superhero movie is out, and I believe, the last set-up movie for The Avengers. I’ve never been a comic book kinda gal. Never bought or read them so I never know how far the movies stray from their source material. However, I almost always enjoy comic book or …Read the Rest

I think a lot of us apologize poorly. I’m starting out a little bluntly, but there you have it. The art of an apology seems to have gotten lost in our modern world. Too often the words “I’m sorry” are thrown about without any thought to what is being apologized for or …Read the Rest
