The west coast of the USA has been hit with torrential storms. I do hope the members of the Stew are safe and dry. I hope all people on the coast...
Nothing as ambitious as Netty's canning adventures, but I do have a large pot of chicken broth simmering on the stove. Husband is at the dentist...
Sjoerd, I don't allow flies in my kitchen but you would be welcome at any time, but only if you were willing to be a "taste tester". We had a loaf...
Glad you will enjoy a day in your element, Sjoerd! I'm going to be in my element, too--a day in the kitchen. A vat of chili to make, French bread...
Well honey, think of sitting on a fence and looking down at bulls and horses. Usually fences are high enough that the livestock can't jump over...
Kind of, Sjoerd, except being in a chariot means you are behind a horse . . . .
Sojerd, from above (like an angel). Definitely not from below!

A Very Happy Birthday to you!
Like Pacnorwest, we brought in more firewood and called an elderly neighbor to tell her if the power goes out we will bring her home with us to...
Netty, our best hopes are for you and your family dinner! We, too, are facing an arctic blast which is predicted to arrive tomorrow afternoon,...
What is happening to Garden Stew? First there were somewhat acrimonious postings about climate change, and now there is an argument over...
We sometimes get spectacular sunrises. This is one from yesterday: [ATTACH] Hope you all have a bright day!
It's tough competing with pantalonis griseum but this is the best I can do until I get my Levi cutoffus washed. With the recent rains, the flowers...
