A Truckers Stop

IMG_9079

I have driven by this place for years… And this last trip I finally stopped in. The sign “Truck stops fuel trucks. We fuel drivers!” on the corner of their lot had caught my eye a time or two and I just couldn’t pass it up this time! Trucker friendly. You don’t see this too [...]

When Life Gives you Lemons

Make Grilled Tuscan Lemon Chicken! This is my absolute favorite meal I’ve made in I don’t know how long. Although, most of my meals I make are a favorite in one way or another, this chicken turned out so moist and juicy, I’m thinking I will never make another kind of grilled chicken again! This [...]

BBQ’D Pork Chops, Onion & Skillet Potatoes

easymeal1

I’m like my mother. My mother has always fed us good homemade food. She has always taken care of us whether she was feeling up to it or not. It’s just what she did, and still does for my father (and us when we show up on her doorstep). I’m the same way… Wednesday was [...]

Pasta Salad

Another easy meal for me is pasta salad. Hubs and the boys love this, so I thought I would share it with you too. Yesterday it was 90+ degrees out, and I didn’t feel like going to too much bother making a meal. Instead, a fried chicken breast and cold pasta salad was on the [...]

Easy Peasy

One thing I love about summer is summer food. Because I’m trucking a good share of the time, and because we spend a huge amount of time out of doors when I’m home, I love to make meals that are quick, yet good for you. My all time favorite is a cucumber sandwich. It’s light, [...]

Garden Fresh Pesto

Today is a lazy day. After all the planting I did yesterday, my body is not talking to me yet. So, I figured I would give it something good in the way of food. I don’t have a ton of fresh goodies coming out of my garden yet, but I do have Arugula and spinach [...]

Where it Comes From

I thought I would share a bit of where your produce comes from. No, I’m not talking about the grocery store either. Of coarse most of it comes from fields– I knew you would know that. But, some of it doesn’t and I thought I would share some of my sights I’ve seen in the [...]

Happy Easter

It was a beautiful day today in Minnesota. Two of my step sons and their girlfriends came out to the farm today. The youngest got home yesterday from Kuwait for good!! He’s been gone a year and we are so happy to have him home, not to mention how happy we are that he’s home [...]

Food!

clifbar.crunchy peanut butter

I made a comment on Twitter today about the Clif Bar I was eating, and I just thought I’d touch on the subject of food, and what I find very helpful for trucking, as well as home life. For the past 5 or 6 years I’ve been eating more and more organic, naturally raised products. [...]

Homemade Pizza

When I’m home, or running local I like to come home and cook. The bad this is, it ends up being  a late supper, usually though, hubs is willing to wait for homemade food anytime! Pizza is a little more time consuming since you have to wait for the dough to rise, but the results [...]
