Don't Forget!

To all the Lovely Ladies of my life:
This is a little late, I know, but-- better late than never. October is/has been Breast Cancer Awareness month. Please, please don't forget to do something as simple as a breast self-exam. Just a quick little check could save your life. Breast cancer doesn't discriminate. It doesn't care how old or young you are, whether or not you have a family history, or how healthy you are otherwise. Don't forget! Go ahead, get your man involved too. I'm sure he won't mind ;)

It's tough being a weenie

All things autumnal


I love this time of year. The colors of autumn, the smells, the tasty treats-- it puts me in the mood to make soups of all kind. Yesterday, I made a thick tomato soup, homemade bread (my first gluten-free loaf-- and it was actually quite good), & some smoky pimento & cheese made with smoky gouda & cheddar cheeses. Yum!

The recipe for the remainder of the day: a comfy blanket, a warm little weenie to cuddle, & a good book. Yes, I do love all things autumnal :)
