Freeze-dried strawberries are our favorite snack. So last year we purchased a freeze dryer from Harvest Right. Thinking we were going to use it for all these healthy yummy fruits, I was really excited. Then the girls got an idea to start their candy business, with mom as the main “product tester”. The shift fromContinue reading “Short Term Memory”

Actually, I never understood how someone could sit ALL Sunday and justContinue reading “Dallas Football Game”

Coastal breeze without the sand and fishy smell :). Winter, now thats a different story… I don’t like the cold! However, we’reContinue reading “Transplanting”
