Many thanks to all your wonderfully kind words and thoughts about Buster. We really appreciate it. We were pretty much a mess this past week, but with time it is getting easier. I don’t think there can be anything that can replace our happy guy, but we have to just remember all the good times we had for sure. I have gotten a little back logged on recipes, but I do have one of my favorite cabbage recipes for you!

you will be missed buster doo
Hello friends. Yesterday was a very sad day in our house. Our loving friend and companion Buster unexpectedly passed away. I cannot tell you how much this saddens my heart and we miss him so dearly.

I want to share some of our favorite pictures and moments with our Buster doo. He will be remembered in our hearts forever. (more…)

This morning I actually got up for an early ride the the temp at 5am was near 75 F! That is unheard of really. It of course has still been pretty darn hot though and turning on the oven is only done as a last resort if you want to get roasty toasty. I made some tasty recipes this past weekend that are nice and refreshing for summer… (more…)
