Where Have I Been???
I just realized it’s been almost two months since my last post. Wow. My excuse is that I’m in the process of moving – we built a new house on the opposite corner of the greater Columbia area from our … Continue reading

Strawberry Pizza? Yes, Please!
Yes. Strawberry Pizza. That’s how I used the surplus from the strawberry bonanza we had this week. I had a feeling that there was more to do with them than sweet luscious desserts, and I was right. Besides this amazing … Continue reading
