Here they are! Haven't cut them yet because I'm serving them at a victory dinner tonight for a friend who just had her last breast cancer treatment. Luckily, she still has her appetite!

Help from the Sky... naturist or zoologists. Is this snake poisonous? Found a nest of at least 3 in our flower bed. Will keep around if ok. #snake #skysource #zoology #naturalist

Hey folks! A friend of mine is up for America's Favorite Teacher. Known her for years and I give her my thumbs up. If you've got 2 seconds and will vote for her, it's free. americasfavteacher.org/2025/katie-l....

The dressing is a great compliment to the sharpness of the fennel. Light crisp and refreshing. Slightly sweet even with zero added sugar. #food, #recipe, #foodsky, #designerdiner, #salad, #fennel

Lovely day in Asheville NC! Visiting friends and enjoying the view from their patio.

Soooooo.... I decided to line my pan like for a terrine. I flipped it, but it just didn't come out looking like I'd hoped. I tasted AWESOME though. Husband approved... I'll have to work on it. I've got soooo much pesto. Thanks again.

Having a get together at the house this weekend. This is my second attempt at making French bread out of freshly ground hard red wheat berries. I think it turned out nice! 🍜 #food #bread #recipe #DesignerDiner

Recipe I used is here: grainsandgrit.com/frenchbread/

Some folks in my neighborhood are worried to go out in the current climate. I made some fresh homemade whole wheat bread to help keep them fed. Gotta resist in the ways that you can! #food 🍜 #recipe #resist #bread Below is the recipe I used.

Loved my trip rafting the Grand Canyon. 10 days that changed my life! Love your shot thanks for posting... brought back the good times!

From the golden years. Was 35 then, 54 now. Rugby was some of the best comradery around. Good times... minus the broken bones.

Loved my trip to Kylemore! The gardens are also lovely.

Tried this version of a salad with dinner last night. It was a hit with the crowd so I decided to post it even though I don't have exact measurements for what I did. It was just a moment of creative expression.
