See that? That is goat’s milk. Gallons of raw, organic, healthy goat’s milk milked by yours truly in the wee hours of the morning. O.k…well not wee hours. More like 8:00, or uh… 9:00…maybe even 10:00. I admit it ..I get out there when I can.
What are you going to do with that much milk?

This is so good, as far as I am concerned anyway. It makes a great drink to sip in the evening while you watch the sun go down from the porch. Listen to the crickets, watch the stars come out…all of the goodness of living in the country.
Any good chai can be used in this […]

Yesterday it hit 100. Was it only a few weeks ago that it was cold? It seems like it. Now the house gets too hot in the afternoons to do much other than read a book in front of the fan.

Have you had chocolate covered espresso beans?
Yeah, me too. Yummy.
I like to think of them as big people’s Raisinettes. They are not too hard to make, and as long as you start with a fantastic espresso bean, and add great chocolate, you are going to have an awesome end product.
Better than anything […]

For most of my life my idea of Easter brunch has been a chocolate bunny washed down with either Dr. Pepper, or coffee. Sort of depends on the era, if you know what I mean. We have rarely attended a church that had the energy to do a sunrise service, anyway. But, Easter brunch is […]

O.k..so the days are longer, the sunrises are prettier, and I am beginning to thaw out. I have been almost basking in the 80 degree weather we have been having.
All winter long I would drag myself away from the kitchen fire to come in here, clutching my hot coffee to ward off frostbite in […]
