Raising a healthy Jane (or just being a healthy grown-up Jane) comes from good food and proper nutrition. Grab your aprons, I’m on kitchen duty with food to spare and recipes to share! When time allows, here’s where you’ll find one of my how-to-convert-to-an-organic-diet recipes.
Did you know? National Men Make Dinner Day is November 1. My DIL, Ashley, knew just the person to assist with the task. Namely her hubby, Brian. He is the breakfast maker at their house, and who doesn’t love breakfast for dinner? So they broke out the fixins for omelets and got crackin’. Egg crackin’, that is.
Winnie Nielsen says: I am one of those who loves breakfast any meal of the day! And this omelette looks fabulous.
Well, Brian, now that DOES look yummy beyond description.
And, I love the glimpse of the “mapron” . . . sure would have been nice to see ALL of YOU and your “mapron”.
Lookin’ good!

Elizabeth says: I’m jealous as I just lugged inside (the house) a lot of tropical plants that I couldn’t bare to see go to waste. Realize this is somewhat of an older post but I’m hoping you will see it anyway. Just before I decided to bring in all of these tender perennials & tropical plants I researched building cold frames & such. The cold frame seems easy enough to make but the heating/regulation/ventilating has me stumped. Do you know of any natural way (besides sunlight) to keep a cold frame warm? Do you have fans, heaters & thermostats in your greenhouse? Do you grow your own…{~} all winter long? For now, I just hope to keep my tenders & tropical plants alive but the heating requirement seems taxing. Although I saw where one fellow had used nothing but a tea light or small candle in his cold frame & it actually kept the snow from forming on the glass of the cold frame & when he went to check on his seedlings they looked fine?
MaryJane says: Hi Elizabeth,
Will get back to you on the greenhouse next week. I’m on the road. Sorry.

Elizabeth says: Ok, thank you. Hope you are having fun, drumming up & sharing a lot of new ideas & enjoying the journey. Stay safe.
Terry Steinmetz says: Ahh, and the walnuts are so-o-o good!
Winnie Nielsen says: Walnuts are so delicious and work in so many ways. I made some basil pesto this weekend using walnuts and served it over whole wheat pasta. So yummy.
