    Garden Walk-About | Let It Rain!

    May 25, 2016 - By ldurben@charter.net

    We’ve had 3.6 inches of rain since Monday and it’s looking like Ireland around here. 🙂  It’s always amazing to me how flowers and veggies and seeds just know when it’s a “real” rain from nature – and not the water from my hose. Everything has seemed to pop up…

    Turkey Tuesday | Cheesy Buffalo Turkey Dip

    May 24, 2016 - By ldurben@charter.net

    Let’s chat about this incredible Cheesy Buffalo Turkey Dip, shall we? Plenty of lean protein from the turkey breast, cheesy goodness from cream cheese and cheddar cheese, and a full cup of buffalo sauce … is there any question that Cheesy Buffalo Turkey Dip wouldn’t be fantastic for game day…

    Weekend Snaps | Toddler Time

    May 22, 2016 - By ldurben@charter.net

    Hello friends! I’ve been meaning to write up this post but I keep getting distracted. Final load of laundry of the weekend. Dog’s ears need cleaning.   Ice cream. Dog needs to go out one last time. Quick check on the yellow beans and sunflowers to see if they’ve started…

    Turkey Tuesday | Turkey Zucchini Burgers with Lemon Yogurt Sauce

    May 17, 2016 - By ldurben@charter.net

      I’m sure it comes as no surprise that we make turkey burgers 90 percent of the time at my house. I love experimenting with the flavors because ground turkey – bland by nature – lends itself to so many different spices and add-ins. I know, though, that many people…

    May 15, 2016 - By ldurben@charter.net

    I’m on the couch, typing this little weekend update on my laptop with Joe hanging out next to me and Earl the Pug at my feet. I’d say that’s just about a perfect Sunday night. (Oh, and there was ice cream. Always ice cream.) The weather felt more like late…

    High Five for Friday | Miscellany

    May 12, 2016 - By ldurben@charter.net

    Well, I have to say this week went by fairly quickly. It seems as if I spent the bulk of my time in the office troubleshooting technology issues. (While my title is “communications director” of the Minnesota Turkey Growers Association, I also wear the hats of human resources and IT/tech…

    Favorite Cinnamon Roll Coffee Cake

    May 10, 2016 - By ldurben@charter.net

    To know me is to know I love baking. (And shoes and dresses and gardening, but those are all for different blog posts.) The first recipe I remember learning how to make as a kid was chocolate chip cookies and I had a kids’ baking cookbook that I very nearly…

    Turkey Tuesday | Crockpot Turkey Tortilla Soup

    May 10, 2016 - By ldurben@charter.net

    I know, I know. I know what you’re thinking. Does the world really need another crockpot soup? Does my blog really need another soup? I tend to be obsessed with soup. I actually come by this obsession very naturally. Case in point: this particular recipe comes from a little recipe…
