A Smile During Trying Times!

A special “Charlie” 🐾 treat creation…

I love creating treats for Charlie, our Jack Russel with a history of pancreatitis. For years he’s only gotten his ultra low fat prescription dog food, and occasional piece of pasta or tablespoon of rice, a little no fat Greek yogurt and veggies of all kinds.

Breakfast (or lunch) of Champions!

Black Bean, Fresh Corn, Avocado, Brown Rice Breakfast Wrap with Pepper Jack

This wrap is a winner! It will fill you up and keep you full. It’s quick and easy to make and once you make a batch you can eat it for days and freeze the remainder to pull out for a quick breakfast! Essentially, this is almost too good to be true!

Monhegan & Manana Islands at Sunset

Monhegan and Manana Islands at Sunset

So many of us are missing our vacations right now. #damncovid This photo is from a few years ago. We’ve all been in a holding pattern, some of us more than others, for quite some time now. I read something that made me smile.

If I would have known the last time I ate out was going to be my last time for so long I would have ordered dessert. #howtrueitis

The Beach at Botany Bay!

The Beach at Botany Bay!

Unbridled beauty is what you’ll find when you stroll the beaches at Botany Bay Wildlife Preserve located in Edisto, SC. This beach is a short walk away from the parking area, so be prepared for a little walk – the splendor of it all is so worth it!

Making a Tuna Melt Quesadilla!

Tuna Melt Quesadilla, Homemade Cole Slaw and Tortilla Chips

Wow! This is so much better than it sounds, trust me! We used to get a tuna melt at a restaurant (they stopped carrying it) – it came with slaw that had a sesame taste to it… it was delicious, and it was HUGE, we would usually split it along with a salad. We have been eating at home since early March because of Covid19. We did pick up some carryout for my birthday last week and it was fabulous. I’m trying to think of things to make that are different – I can get stuck in a rut recipe-wise. THIS IS AMAZING!

Sometimes you have to kiss a few frogs before you meet a prince!

Frog Saved!

It’s true, isn’t it? Sometimes in this thing we call life, we have to kiss a few frogs before we meet our prince (or princess, depending…) Most of us have been there. I wish I could have met Fred when I was young – I think about all those wasted years, but #everythinghappensforareason – our paths may have not lead to one another if the timing were different.

Hunting Island House Plan by Moser Design Group!

A small but mighty plan – love the porch (as always!) – this is a fabulous small plan that has a master suite downstairs. It’s a nice open plan on the inside. The lines are fabulous – Can you imagine the sound of the rain on the metal roof on the porch? How wonderful!

Recipe Reminder: Making BBQ Sauce (Grilled Chicken and Corn)!

Oooh! Making BBQ sauce is SO worth your time. It doesn’t take long and your house will smell divine while it’s cooking! I divide it into 1/4 or 1/3 cup increments and put in freezer bags! That works well for 2 chicken breasts.
