The beginning of the journey to save our country from the hands of a wanna be dictator begins today. The Democratic Party Convention has officially begun. I’m so looking forward to speakers who believe all of us are created equal. I’m so looking forward to speakers who believe when we lift up one of us,… Continue reading Today is the Big Day!

For the first time in my life, at least as far as I can remember, I’ve never used a pressure canner. That is, until today. I’ve wanted to can vegetables, soups, and pasta sauce containing meat for quite a while now.

It was the high school calling to say students would be in class on Monday, then shift to e-learning for the remainder of the week. Families would be informed on Friday of the plan for the remainder of August,… Continue reading The Inevitable Call
