As I realized my thoughts about living a pantry lifestyle during the Holidays were buzzing around in my head and not landing, I figured out it was because there were too many for one post (or my brain is too small, which is entirely a possibility). Here is... Part One. When my husband was still able to work and bringing home an income, he almost always was paid every two weeks. So... instead of my...

Or conceivably it could be the other way around? While travelling last month I came across again a book published in 1978 called Blue and White, The Cotton Embroideries of Rural China by Muriel Baker and Margaret Lunt . I think first time round, in my uneducated state, I had dismissed the book for what I considered very simplistic and uninspiring charted extracts, never bothering, as a consequence...

The pantry cabinet is where everyone gathers when the hunger starts to set in, or when someone is bored and looking for a good snack. The kitchen pantry storage is where everyone stores their favorite snacks and where...

I am in the midst of putting together the Recommendations post and reading a few books to review... not to mention continuing the Pantry Talk posts... and housework. However, I must send you to a friar style to share in the joy as my "adopted Catholic friar son to pray for" celebrated an important event in his life. I'd love to have attended but you know me and travel (even if I were to have...

This morning as I was getting ready for the day, I heard the all-too-familiar sound of Henry pushing a stool across the floor. He was just outside my bedroom, inching his way to my door and heading in my direction as I stood at the bathroom sink. The sound struck fear in my heart as if an old street peddler was slowly, sloooowly creeping toward me as I stood alone in the dark. I quickend my pace because...

I love nuts , haw! In my mind, the kids were just mules for me to get my hands on peanut butter cups on Halloween. But for some reason my plan backfired, and much to the happiness of the Kid , they got one. ONE measly peanut butter cup?! I can't live on that!! I had to take matters into my own hands. I dug through my pantry and luckily found a bar of chocolate . Then waaaaaay in the back I opened a...

Home from hospital – it’s a good feeling! The stay at North Park Private to try and get Henry to sleep has sort of worked, cos’ I have come home with some better strategies for him to sleep longer – fingers crossed!! Home from hospital also means no more hospital food. I can categorically say that I will not miss their cooking! Sitting down and filling out my meal orders was...
