I'm trying to clear some stuff out of the cabinets and fridge so I decided to do some baking this afternoon. Why not? The first thing is chocolate chip and chunk cookies from Thomas Keller's Bouchon Bakery cookbook. I enjoy them...

NJ Chicaa I'd make rice krispy treats with the marshmallows. The celery you can cut into pieces and fill with things like peanut butter, almond butter, cream cheese, or Laughing Cow cheese.

Thanks for the well wishes, everyone. I’m fine, honestly. That’s my second panic attack ER visit this year, which is about normal. Let’s get back to the important stuff: music!!! Yesterday we had a pop classic from the 50s....

Last week, I heard on the news, that Walmart said purchasing Thanksgiving Dinner, would cost more this year. I was thinking prices are high enough and they are going up. Especially with one of the biggest holidays of the year. I...

Hello everyone. I hope your day is off to a good start. It is 46 degrees F and clear here at the Jersey Shore. The high is just 56. Ugh. I woke up at the usual time of 5:30am. I eventually got up to take the dog out so I'm up for...

I damn near flipped my lid when I went to Aldi today for a few items that were on my list that I typically get there. I walked past the egg section and saw that they had eggs priced at $3.57 a dozen....

I've mentioned several times before that things between my ex-husband and I ebb and flow. We've been divorced for 5 years. There are times when we are 100% good and there are times when we are barely speaking. Sometimes he blocks...

NJ Chicaa @kaylachan I have no idea. I thought initially that the cat picked up on the good vibes between us but he is always hidden and then randomly comes out later.

NJ Chicaa @kaylachan I adopted baby Adso at 8 weeks a year or 2 after moving here. Adso never lived with him or knew him. For some random reason he trusts and likes him. It is funny bc Adso hides from EVERYONE. Today he approached him to be pet.

NJ Chicaa That's the thing. 2 of the cats are normal and friendly to everyone. Adso, however, who I have had since he was 8 weeks old and who has never been abused or had trauma is a scaredy cat. As soon as he hears a knock at the door or a ring of the bell he is under...
