In case you haven’t had a chance to see it, I have posted a recipe for chicken and gnocchi soup over in my recipe collection. I made myself a batch today, and it was amazing! I did have to buy a few things, I don’t often keep fresh veggies in the house, because I don’t…

My big project this weekend was to take cuttings from my grama’s rose bush, and root them. My grama passed away this spring, and this rose bush belonged to her mom, and her mom’s mom. The process for rooting the roses was actually very easy. I just hope that I get good results. I just wish…
