    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.…

    I’m Not Ignoring You!

    March 17, 2019 - By ldurben@charter.net

    Was my last blog post really January 20? Good grief. So goes my life the first three months of the year. I traveled to Atlanta, San Antonio, and Minneapolis for work and in between, I just tried to hang on for the ride – amidst a winter that showed its…

    Day of Rest

    January 20, 2019 - By ldurben@charter.net

    I’ve been totally lax about posting this month. Okay, more like nonexistent since my Happy New Year post. That’s never my intention, but sometimes life gets in the way. 😉 Work has ramped up, as it always does, once January 1 hits. (Which isn’t to say I was bored prior…

    Happy New Year!

    January 1, 2019 - By ldurben@charter.net

    Welcome, 2019! I hope you all had a wonderful New Year’s Eve, spending it with the people you love. We braved the rather ugly (snow/ice-covered roads) to head out to the farm, hanging with my family. Here are a few of my favorite pics from the evening. Somehow I missed…

    I’m not super big into end-of-year recaps, which I may have mentioned before. I find them to be a bit tedious – especially when all I want to do is think ahead to the next year. What’s done is done, right? But … it is fun to look back at…

    Turkey Tuesday: Instant Pot Cheesy Turkey Penne Pasta

    December 18, 2018 - By ldurben@charter.net

    This recipe is a turkey riff on an Instant Pot recipe I saw recently titled “Crack Chicken Pasta.” And with turkey, plenty of cheese (including cream cheese), and bacon … well, it’s easy to see how this dish could become addicting.  This is also a great option for your busy…
