At a cookout, I like a shandy, a mix of lemonade and beer.

I make cobbler constantly, but make a batter, equal measure flour with adjusted baking powder, sugar, milk and as much butter as I dare mixed to cover as much fruit as I have on hand. Will try thi...

CMcB, Thanks a million for that link! I have a two week vacation with my almost 1 and 3 year old grandkids coming up. I can't wait to hold them and read the Four Little Puppies.

I had these books when I was tiny, late fifties, and loved them. I remember them so vividly, because I kept them into adulthood and have lost them and was just wondering yesterday how I could get ...

Don't forget the regular art museums, I like best the American Folk Art Museum. Now I feel homesick to visit NY.

Those are great places to visit, Art, Conrans and the grocery. The vaulted ceiling in that grocery is gorgeous. The Food market in Chelsea is where they film the food channel, but I don't have c...

I saw this at the Conran shop in NY last summer. It is fun to twist those spirally thingies. It would make a great toy. Speaking of tapeworms, you can now buy meds for cats without a prescrip...

That kitchen is extremely beautiful. The English seem to have a knack for eclectic mixes that are my favorite kind of interiors.

I loved finding these flowers on the ditchbank where I played with my cousin. We were told the fruits were "maypops.'' We liked to pick them for a favorite older lady, Miss Lolabelle, to stomp ...

I love to make salsa verde by cooking the tomatillos til soft and pureeeing them with pepper, onion, garlic and lots of cilantro, such a healthy condiment.

Yesterday I cleaned up after the tile installer wet ground the cement counter and admired the way the white dust and water had settled into the wood grain on the old oak floor, like pickling. It ...

I researched corner toilets on the internet for the little bathroom in my old house renovation a couple of weeks ago. They are way more expensive. I bought a small pedestal sink at Home Depot fo...

I remember seeing one of his early nests in a little gallery in the 80's when he was in art school. The combination of the familiar and the astonishing in his work is unforgettable. The Scottish...

Kimg, if you wear the beautiful fur coats or display the trophies, you are in effect advertising and condoning those uses, regardless of whether animals died a long time ago or will die in the ...

The homes of artists are the ones I like best, especially when it links to a gallery. I don't understand the criticism at all. The more I know about everyone's home and what they do and what their...

Love those dress up photo shoots!!

I would feel more creeped out by a nearby motel than by the woods. We haven't been burgled and surrounding houses have, possibly because it looks like crazy people live here, and we work here mos...

my mom makes us a few jars of fig preserves every summer. we serve some to our most beloved guests

what an arresting photo

I have a sculptor husband and many large original works, but some people love the painted Snow White and all 7 dwarves best. My Mom gave them to me for a birthday present decades ago. He's had man...
