This has been “one of those weeks”. Too much going on. Not enough getting done. Too little energy. Not nearly enough sleep. And no groceries in the refrigerator because I don’t have time to shop. Am I alone in this situation???
Dressings
Spicy Mayonnaise & Sweet Potato Fries
Since high school days, one of my favourite places to visit is Stillwater, MN. As teens we would sit alongside the river and people watch. In my 20’s, I would scour the plentiful antique shops and people watch. As an adult, I enjoy the fantastic restaurants, car shows, and boutiques — and people watch.

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.

Winter in Minnesota usually means sweaters, slippers, and hands wrapped around a mug of something hot. Since I am not a huge fan of typical “comfort food”, I tend to make soups and stews. But sometimes even that can feel too heavy.
Bourbon Vinaigrette
I seriously DIS-like purchasing salad dressing. Seriously. Just look at the ingredients list. Look how many years before the expiration date. Gross! Look at how expensive it is. And then think about the delicious, budget-friendly, delicious, fresh, and DELICIOUS dressings you can make at home!
