New Year 2019



Big changes in our lives! I retired from Full-time nursing to per diem and love it. I work when I want to and have so much more free time, which I managed to fill quite easily. Still love my Instant Pot, now I have 2. I make my own yogurt and hummus once a month and both are truly the best I've ever had and so much cheaper. I continue to try new recipes and  use this method of cooking more than traditional ones. I broke my foot Valentines Day 2018 and was in an air boot for 12 weeks, no driving! To keep the "crazies" at bay, I started loom knitting. I totally enjoy it and have made scarves, hats, mittens, boot cuffs and next I'm making socks, so relaxing. New recipes added this year are no churn ice creams, easy and taste amazing. Made coffee and mint chocolate chip flavors while at the beach last year. If you have an instant pot check out a few of my recipes under the misc. category. The tikka masala, mac and cheese, meatballs, lasagna and alfredo bow tie noodles, all good and family approved. We are planning a trip to Great Britain this year and have been watching a lot of British baking shows, can't wait to try some of the foods they prepare, not to mention seeing all the marvelous sights!
