Nope, no clue. This time-guzzling, who-will-really-read-this-crap blog. Well, other than I keep sending these little golden nuggets of wisdom to lots of friends and family via e-mail when really, I could be doing this. But seems this is more “hip”, “with it”, “groovy”, or whatever the saying of the month is now. After all, I can post pics, links and all. Easy Peasy. I have also been told on too many occasions by too many people I have an extraordinary amount of trivial BS in my head. I’d like to give some of that away and make room for things I really need to know. So, here we go. I love to do lots of things. I love spending time with our ever-expanding family. I love taking pictures that make people smile. I love cooking things that are tradition, comfort, my own stuff, other people’s stuff. I love traveling, with my Man from the Mountains a.k.a.

I always break out in a sweat, or maybe it’s just a hot flash. I don’t know how to answer this question. I love all kinds of food. Now, ask me what foods I don’t like and the same thing happens. Again, I don’t know. Ummm, would someone PLEASE turn on the ceiling fan? I admit there are things I haven’t tried because, frankly, I don’t think I would care for fried worms or boiled brains. But, well, maybe. . . . ? This is something I KNOW I like. We’ll see if you like it, too. Cream of Mushroom Soup, et all Asparagus and Scallops a.k.a. “What to do with weird leftovers” Makes about 10 cups ¼ cup of onions 4 Tbsp Smart Balance stick margarine (or unsalted butter) 1/3 cup Wondra Flour (makes for a smoother mixture than regular flour) 1 tsp roasted minced garlic 5 stalks asparagus, rough chopped (optional) 15 mushrooms stems and pieces, rough chopped 4-5 med frozen sea scallops (or 3 large), thawed and rough chopped (optional) 1/8 tsp dried marjoram** 1 […]
