I didn’t exactly start out making Sweet Potatoes Mexican Rice today. I’ve been making rice and beans together for the last couple of weeks. The peppers in my garden are ripening, so I need to use them while I still have them! I just started […]
I have just gone apple picking for the first time in my life. It was a gorgeous day. It was a fun time before the rain and the snow kick in for the arctic tundra that is inevitably going to be a Midwestern winter. I […]
