Meet My New Adoptee This was a big week. I took home a puppy and adopted…a blogger. As a new blogger I wished I had had a mentor or someone I could talk to. Kristin of Dine and Dish announced a new round of Adopt A Blogger and I decided to sign up. I was…
I don’t know what it is like where you live but we have growers selling fresh strawberries on the roadside. They are in season right now. I love having fresh strawberries on cereal or hot oatmeal. In the evening they are great served with fresh ice cream or even better this Fresh Strawberry Cheesecake. I…

I saw these on another blog, Ezra Pound Cake, and thought they were the perfect thing to make today. Why today? Because it is time change, and to me that signals the countdown to spring. It is never fun to lose an hours sleep but tonight we will all be smiling when it is still…
