Oh Hai! I started this post back in August.. so … yeah.. LB and I recently read a review of the Farm to Table Bistro in the New York Times. Since we had a plan to visit Bannerman’s Castle which is pretty close, we decided to check it out. First, in case you go, it’s in a strip mall. That… Read more →
This is my “Halloween costume” Sort of.. 
Saturday night, I had the pleasure of seeing Bing Futch perform at the Sand Lake Center for the Arts in… (wait for it).. Sand Lake, NY. I heard of Bing while digging around dulcimer websites, and my first thought was , woah this dude does not look like a mountain dulcimer player, but I’ve since figured out this guy breaks… Read more →
So, it’s been a while… I’ve got a bazillion things in drafts and in my head.. but not posted to this blog.. also? lots of pics just waiting to be shared. I haven’t updated this blog since August.

Fruitby Sherri Vinton. I already had Put ‘em Up! and I enjoyed a lot of the recipes but what is nifty about this… Read more →

It’s been a while since I posted anything about my adventures in crafting. It’s not like I haven’t been doing things…. I just haven’t written about them. Two years ago, I decided to make an afghan. LB said she wanted a rainbow one.. and I was happy to oblige. My fall back craft when knitting is getting on my nerves,… Read more →
