    May 5, 2019 - By ldurben@charter.net

    Apparently I took full advantage of a three day weekend … so much fun packed in, let me tell you! Friday, my sister, niece and I took my mom out for our 3rd annual early Mother’s Day pedicure adventure and we enjoyed lunch out and some shopping in downtown Excelsior,…

    April 21, 2019 - By ldurben@charter.net

    Hello friends! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend celebrating Easter or Passover, as the case may be. We hosted my family here at our house and it was a wonderful afternoon. We enjoyed Apricot Bourbon Glazed Ham along with cheesy hash brown potatoes, this fruit salad, green beans…

    Pretty Spring Dresses

    April 8, 2019 - By ldurben@charter.net

    I’m a dress girl, through and through — although this winter was especially brutal and forced me to gravitate toward my leggings and jeans because — well — warmth. Ultimately I was okay with this. In fact, I found I was actually enjoying wearing jeans again, which was a bit…

    Weekend Randomness

    April 7, 2019 - By ldurben@charter.net

    Here we are on another Sunday night and weirdly, I feel like I have all this energy right now. I have no idea why – just that I was pretty productive today and I hope this carries over to the week ahead. Friday evening Teacher Man and I headed over…

    Collecting Milk Glass

    April 3, 2019 - By ldurben@charter.net

    A few years ago, I really honed in on collecting milk glass and went on the hunt for a few fun pieces. Now, to be completely honest, I don’t know know if all my pieces are actually ‘milk glass.’ But also in all honesty, I don’t really care. I only…

    Turkey Tuesday: Meatloaf Meatballs with Brown Butter Mashed Potatoes

    April 2, 2019 - By ldurben@charter.net

    A day off on Monday is a great day to make some comfort food for supper – like these Meatloaf Meatballs with Brown Butter Mashed Potatoes. There’s no rushing home from work, no piano lessons to get to, no schedule at all, in fact, because it’s spring break. What a…

    Turkey Sausage Slab Pizza Pie

    March 26, 2019 - By ldurben@charter.net

    I hope you’re sitting down. Because I’m quite sure you have to be shocked — perhaps even gobsmacked — that I actually posted a Turkey Tuesday recipe for Turkey Sausage Slab Pizza Pie. It’s only been something like a gazillion weeks since I’ve done this. But who’s judging, right? I’m…

    It is Well with My Soul

    March 24, 2019 - By ldurben@charter.net

    I’m feeling a little out-of-sorts today. On one hand, it was a glorious spring weekend and it felt almost life-changing to be able to be outside and feel the warm sunshine. On the other hand, I guess I’m just not looking forward to the whole ‘back to work’ thing tomorrow.…
