Flower Power in Rose-Coloured Glasses

As many of you have discovered, maintaining and following a blog can be quite time consuming. Yes, it has its rewards and challenges. And I wouldn’t change it for anything! When I’m not preparing dishes in Gail’s Kitchen, posting recipes, or snapping photographs, I’m……EATING MY WAY THROUGH THE ALPHABET!  
You would think it’s taking a toll on my waistline. Not so. Instead, I needed to upgrade my eyeglass prescription. I guess that means I get to make a fashion statement, too. All kidding aside, I am so excited about my new glasses. They are from the Drew Barrymore Eyewear Collection called Flower. What do you think? Will they make me look wiser? Or younger? Or more creative? Or will I simply continue to see the world through “rose-coloured glasses”? You tell me. 

Eating My Way Through the Alphabet 

What’s cooking in Gail’s Kitchen?  Stay tuned and you’re about to find out.  It’s as simple as A-B-C.  One of my passions is being at home in my own country kitchen.   I love to cook, and my husband loves that I do it often.  Now more than ever, since I am retired, I relish the thought of creating something delicious from scratch.  I adore time-honored traditions using tried-and-true recipes. Yet, I often never think twice about tweaking old favorites or modifying others to suit the inner craving of the moment.  Most of the recipes serve 2-4 people, but can be altered in any direction.  The leftovers are golden morsels to be eaten again later or shared with others.  And I love to share.  To me, seeing a smile in gratitude is thanks enough. The recipes you will find here in the next several weeks can be prepared very easily.  Feel free to contact me with questions.  Now take a deep breath, inhale the aromas, and join me on a tasteful journey entitled, “EATING MY WAY THROUGH THE ALPHABET”.
