    Turkey Tuesday: Spicy Turkey Sausage Pasta

    August 2, 2016 - By ldurben@charter.net

    Turkey Tuesday is back, folks! It’s been AGES since I’ve shared a recipe. July flew by and I was out of town for two weeks (combination of work / vacation) so that really put me behind. A few key points about the recipe I’m sharing: It’s very flavorful It can…

    It’s Monday, folks. And the first day of August. Whaaaat?  I know, how in the world did that happen? I have a lot of posts to catch up on this month, but for now, I give you my new favorite picture from summer.  Joe and his little cousin, Miss Morgan,…

    Turkey Tuesday: Handling a Heat Wave

    July 26, 2016 - By ldurben@charter.net

    It’s been too long since I’ve written about turkeys. Blame it on a busy schedule, vacation days, summer … although if I’m completely honest with you, I’ve been a little burned out writing about agriculture. I’ve been feeling a little stretched thin, with commitments to this blog, my communications career…

    Bucket List: Duran Duran

    July 24, 2016 - By ldurben@charter.net

    Sunday night. Ugh. I have been out of the office for two weeks – a little for work travel but mostly for vacation, so my transition back tomorrow is going to sting a little. Okay. Probably more than a little. Wish me luck. In order to keep me smiling tonight,…

    Friday Night Garden Tour

    July 22, 2016 - By ldurben@charter.net

    I’m back from my work trip/vacation and have a ton of photos to share. But first … I took some pics of my gardens tonight. The lighting was perfect – the mosquitos were not. (I risked a zillion bites for all these photos! Ha!) I’ll be back soon to write…

    Weekend Snaps | Flower Power

    July 10, 2016 - By ldurben@charter.net

    How was your weekend?  Ours was nice and uneventful at home. We golfed, we enjoyed time on our patio, and today I packed up my suitcase for the next two weeks. I’m off to Washington DC tomorrow morning for a work-related conference and I’m looking forward to seeing my turkey…

    July 6, 2016 - By ldurben@charter.net

    Life has been crazy busy since June so I haven’t had as much time to blog at all – much less blog any recipes (which take a little more time) or sneak in a Turkey Tuesday post – sorry about that! But it’s been a great summer so far, and…

    Weekend Snaps | Happy Independence Day

    July 4, 2016 - By ldurben@charter.net

    How was your holiday weekend? Ours was bittersweet as we had to say good-bye to our one and only Earl the Pug last Friday. This was painful. Utterly painful. But his 15 year old body was wearing out and we are comforted in knowing he is now playfully running his…
