[fudge stripe cookays]

37. Good girl!

I miss ya'll too! But not the heat! It's so gorgeous here...cool..not really much above 80 so far, and balmy breezes off the lake. I'm in heaven, and I can breathe real good! :D

[yellowdogintexas]

39. my husband is currently in North Dakota..way way up there

near the Theodore Roosevelt National Park, and he tells me every day how nice it is. I just grit my teeth and soak the foundation and water the plants.

Glad this move is working out for you healthwise!

I have a HUGE favor! :D

Montana. I have no idea how that relates to Minnewaukan though.

[fudge stripe cookays]

47. It's kinda east central.

My great grandpa and his brother homesteaded there in the early part of the century, and two of the brother's children are buried there.

I just got a picture of the little girl the other day. Breaks my heart. I would love to see where she is buried.

[yellowdogintexas]

50. were you just wanting photographs?

I don't know if he would even be near it though

20. Homemade split-pea soup

I'm eating it now.

[greenbriar]

23. oh how do you make it home made?

please send the recipie

[mia]

24. I modify the directions on the bag of split peas.

I add whatever vegetables I have around. Today I fried some onions and celery, then added some diced carrots, bay leaves, tarragon, fresh garlic and frozen brussel sprouts, broccoli, lima and butter beans.
It's the first time that I've made it without either smoked turkey legs or a ham bone and it's not quite as tasty. As I sit here eating it, I'm thinking about how I'll tweak it next time.

[susanna]

52. I like the way you cook:

i.e., "I'm thinking about how I'll tweak it next time." That's the way great food is made. Rock on. :-)

I really like split pea soup. It's insanely good. Your version sounds really, really tasty.

On edit: homage to the split pea soup!

[BrotherBuzz]
