Fall has officially made her presence known here in the Midwest. The sky is dark and dreary today with a nip in the air that makes you reach for that cute new jacket you bought for a steal at the end of last season. Flip-flops lay abandoned by the front door, still clinging to the [...]

When I was young (and still today) my mom called me Paula Perfect. The moniker refers to my never ending desire to do things right, no matter the cost… to make a pretty life. I strive endlessly for the right attitude, the perfectly straight hair, the organization which would make a sane person itch, the [...] My friend Pamela’s favorite cake is a yellow cake with chocolate frosting. It’s not her birthday and I didn’t make the cake for her, but instead made Ina Garten’s Birthday Sheet Cake for The Husband who has been moping around the house because I gave away almost the entire apple slab pie I made last [...] **not gluten free** The Husband recently told me he will be in class until 2200 on Tuesday nights. For someone who cooks dinner every night then takes care of the house chores, Tuesdays suddenly became an inspiring night to catch up. I could work on all of the crafts I’ve started but have yet to finish. [...] The neighborhood is experiencing a bit of a growing pain this week as school officially started yesterday bringing the end of summer to a skidding halt. Tuesday night I sat in the front yard and visited with the neighbors as they watched their kids play hard for the last hurrah. **not gluten free** Wow.

We were on vacation last round and I just didn’t think Curried Couscous would be the best snack for the car ride. This week’s Barfefoot recipe was chosen by Eva of I’m Boring. After a long weekend spent having a glorious time with The Husband and our friends, I completely spaced out about Barefoot and honestly, I was junked out. The weekend was filled with grilling out, smoking (that’s KC style BBQ) and grilling again, I couldn’t [...] **not gluten free** This month the wonderful hosts at Barefoot decided to give us an option to make this month’s chosen recipes or do a little backtracking. This month’s first recipe is Tuna Salad chosen by Kate at Warm Olives and Cool Cocktails. I really wanted to make the Tuna Salad (because I adore Kate) but [...] **not gluten free** A really great new feature at the Barefoot site is a Barefoot on a Budget challenge. We all voted on a recipe that would ultimately end up breaking the bank and modify it to our liking and our budget. |
