Proud Pepper Pappa
Try saying Proud Pepper Pappa five times fast. I think the best way to understand just how many peppers I really have is visually. The really scary thing is that the number of peppers in that bowl is only about 3/4 of the total number. And if you scroll down far enough you’ll see that…

I know that no one wants me to go on a political rant, but let me just remind everyone to get out there and vote on Tuesday!! I know it can be frustrating (especially in a mid-term election) because you may not know who all the candidates are, but it is important to exercise your…
Read MoreRecipe of the Month (October) – Chunky Potato & Swiss Chowder
Before I talk about the recipe, I have to say that Christine and I came very close to buying a new car last night. We actually went just to prove that we could not afford one and we really got the hard sell. Although car buying can be a very unpleasant experience, I have to…

Read MoreLast Hike?
We went for what might be our last hike of the year yesterday. We hiked Mount Starr King, which is way up north…a good 30 minutes farther north than we have ever hiked before. This was our first official fall hike (ever). I can’t ever remember hiking any mountains around this time of year even…

This is a little something new that I’m going to try. Christine and I both love to cook, and we are going to start sharing our favorite recipes here on the blog. I promise that no recipe will get posted unless we both rate it a 10 out of 10!! This one is killer, but…

Well first, I have to share some exciting Apple news with everyone because they have finally released the computer that I have been waiting for, the new iMac (pictured below). That’s not to say that I’m going to run out and get one right now, but it sure is tempting. But it is definitely a…
