I take photos here and there of what I'm doing, but more often than not, with a 55-60 hour work week, I don't have much time to write about it. So, for inquiring minds (I know you're dying to know what we eat) here are a few photos from 2012.
Homemade cranberry sauce for Thanksgiving. Beautiful color!

One night's dinner: grilled peppercorn ham on sourdough with provolone and baby dill pickles.
Test kitchen for my Spoonful.com work. The kids were trying out various after-school snacks.

Thrilled to be able to find Cafe du Monde at local Oriental groceries here. Good stuff!
I would love to make blogging promises I can't keep, so for now I'll just say I will TRY to post more often than twice a month. See you soon :)

I stumbled on your site today while looking for a chuck roast recipe. I had to blink and look again when I read about your visit to the Jim Dandy in Tipton. Hilarious. My dad grew up in Tipton and my grandparents lived just down the street from the Jim Dandy. Small world. I'm looking forward to trying some of your recipes. Thanks!
That's awesome! My grandparents were the Sharps - if you knew them, I'd love to hear it!
Thanks for replying. I don't recognize that name, but I didn't know many of the Tipton-ites. We just played at my grandparents - the Russells. I am also related to the Wilburns and the Overdorfs. My dad has passed away, but I'll have to check with my aunt. I'll let you know if I learn anything.
