  • Herb-Roasted Thanksgiving Turkey Legs

    I wish I had a picture of them roasted, but here they are almost ready to bake. They were eaten so quickly, I did not get a picture of them on the buffet line. Herb-Roasted Turkey Legs I got CRAZY this year and made only turkey legs for Thanksgiving. Folks straight up told me I…

  • Spinach & Ricotta Calzones

    Spinach & Ricotta Calzones Not sure where I found this recipe and when I started modifying it, but it confirms Sara’s #1 belief about my cooking: I can put spinach in ANYTHING. Italian sausage, browned (add garlic at the end so as not to burn it) Spinach, 10 oz Ricotta, 8 oz Shredded Mozzerella, 4…

  • Hitting The Nantucket Pause Button

      1998? Somewhere near Coatue Beach, Nantucket. Every time I say the word “Nantucket”, my family screams, “UGH! NO MORE!!! Stop with the NANTUCKET!” After all, we live in a Nantucket-inspired cottage I begged us to build. I covered the front of it in climbing rose bushes. It’s possible there is something “Nantuckety” in every…

  • Healthcare Bridge-o-Beliefs

      I spent last week at the beach with my family, searching for a little “closer to fine”. I found it. It’s possible I have a unique viewpoint when it comes to the interplay between traditional and alternative medicine. Having been raised by parents fully devoted to these often opposing camps, I was raised at…

  • Even If

    DUDES! 2017 is not AT ALL what I had planned. First THIS happened. And then THIS happened. And NOW THIS HAPPENED: We’ve spent 6 weeks trying to find a more suitable home for our beloved Penny. Penny is my little all-day shadow, and perhaps I was slow to admit it was due to her anxiety.…

  • “I Went To The Mountains, I Drank From The Fountain…”

      OK gang, we’re about to get our hippy-dippy on. Hip-to-the-dip. As in, if you’re not comfortable talking about your spirit/soul/inner-being, walk away. Or to quote 2 year old Sara talking to her infant sister who was trying to attack our cat, “Walk ee-way Kel-Kel. Walk ee-way.” Long story short: I went temporarily blind at…

  • Holiday Memories (Teacher Gifts 2016)

    Kelly’s Pumpkin Spice Cake with Cream Cheese Icing. The 9 year old shooed me away from this cake all day. “Mommy! Stop trying to help! I have a PLAN!” (Thanksgiving) Outside of building my family, I am most proud of being a part of a thriving community. I’m the kind of gal who rarely lets…
