Awesome!!!!!

Posted about 1 month ago

I combined the two wonderful Sticky Toffee Pudding recipes that I got from Bubblers and adjusted for US measurements. It was awesome. The best ever. It’s the perfect holiday dessert. My husband and brother were thrilled.

Thanks so much Graeme and Jaybe.

Those of you who have followed this thread know that I am obsessed with sticky toffee pudding. I want to thank Jaybe and Graeme again for sending me the recipes last year. We’re going to visit my brother for Thanksgiving this year, He and I are cooking the dinner together, so I’m going to finally get to make sticky toffee pudding!

I’ll let you know how it turns out.

Swine Flu and Selling a Home

Posted 3 months ago

It’s been five days since I started to get ill. My husband swears that I have the swine flu. As we live in a university community where it’s prevalent, he could be correct. The up side of this misery is that I’m feeling well enough to get caught up on some computer work that I’ve been putting off.

Here is the link to our house in Santa Fe. It’s on the market as of last week. We hate to sell,...

Stumpy Tailed Australian Cattle Dog

Posted 4 months ago

Life here in New Mexico rocks on. I’m down to two more rooms to paint. Then I get to start on fixing all the little things that don’t bother me while I’m living in a house but need to be fixed before we can sell it.

Both great towns, but Chapel Hill just isn’t home. When people ask me what I miss most about New Mexico, other than the …
