Some times it’s challenging to come up with creative ways to serve leftovers. The typical beef rump roast is bigger than what 2 people can eat, and besides, I always pile my plate with veggies, so they are all gone. What’s left is a big old hunk of meat.

Rolled Rump Roast
I married a farm boy. He grew up on a small dairy farm, did chores before school, and showed animals for 4H. He also prefers to eat like a farm boy – meat and potatoes.
Peach Moscato Sorbet
I love glass – cut glass, lead glass, blown glass, milk glass, pressed glass, depression glass, and so on. I have an odd collection of family pieces, gifts from Sweden, and flea market finds.
Chicken with Cilantro Pesto
A line in one of our favourite holiday movies is:
“Pesto is passé!”
No way. Not possible.
Easy Quinoa
Some people – like me – need to eat often. And I really like to eat. 🙂 But way too often I feel empty again not too long after eating. Enter: Quinoa!
Orange Julius
My guest chef for the week is Gabby. She is the sparkliest, sweetest, smartest, funnest girl I know. Gabby is also an excellent sous chef. The crowning glory of our dinner was the refreshing orange julius.
Smoky Shrimp Stuffed Kumato
My gardening skills are weak, mostly because I can’t leave things alone. I am forever picking the pea pods, cherry tomatoes, or basil to nibble, leaving very little for a decent harvest.
Salmon Salad for a Crowd
This week’s Guest Chef is my younger sister from Alaska! Ellen and her family have been visiting this week.
Berry Lemon Oven Pancake – Gluten Free
As a child of school teacher parents, summer vacation means TRAVELING. That is precisely what I am doing right now, and this post marks the beginning of my Guest Chef summer series.
Stuffed Salmon
It’s pathetic, I know, but I am “pintrest-challenged”. Any pinning I do is to my bulletin board. Instead, I have several folders stuffed with ideas – a green folder for gardening, black for home decor, and red for recipes. Most of these ideas come from magazines, newsletters, friends, and even pages ripped out of old church cookbooks.
