About
I am a sixty-something retired nurse-midwife who loves to cook and garden. Flowers, veg, herbs, etc. I have two grown daughters and four grandsons. I have lived all over the eastern part of the US (husband is an industrial engineer) and finally settled here about 9 years ago when my spouse opened his consulting firm and we could live where we like as long as it's near an airport. I really admire Jamie...we have been watching him since Naked Chef days. Love the new show and his home in the country.

Frittelle di Riso
Wed 03 Feb 2010GENERAL BLOG
These rice fritters are usually made during Carnevale leading up to Ash Wednesday and Lent. Sometimes near Florence you may also find them made with apples, semolina or a simple egg and flour mixture.

Garden Path

The snow really accentuated the steps up to the natural part of the garden last night. Now there's so much snow it is obscured.

Bella in the snow
Sat 30 Jan 2010GENERAL BLOG
Bella, aka Belly Bean, one of our Hungarian Viszla's playing in the snow which started last night. We now have about 8 inches or so and expect another 5 throughout the day. Very unusual for North Carolina to get this much at one time.
Merry Christmas from my front garden!
