Speechless Sunday: Diane finally got to read in her chair, as most of you who read my posts saw, that she bought a new reading chair. Unfortunately, she could not read in it, because either Wiley or Jill would take possession of the chair...Finally, she was able to test it out and she assured me that it very comfortable, and she could even take a nap in it:)There were times when only Jill would be taking possession of the chair. Clearly a power struggle:))) Wishing you a safe and healthy life and I look forward to your comments.

A Holiday Salad: can be made even if there are no Holidays... I was looking for recipes that I could make ahead not to disrupt the Holiday Meal. I ran into a couple salads that you could make ahead. Needless to say, I had to improve or modify the recipe.So, with that said here are the ingredients:1. Shredded and Toasted Almonds (some would replace it with walnuts or hazelnuts, my take is whatever you have at home)2. I used fig balsamic reduction if you do not have it use any type of balsamic vinegar (if no reduction then just add more honey)3. a little Dijon mustard (not too much or it will be too sharp, I use less than a 1/4 teaspoon just a hint)4. some olive oil about a 1/4 cup and I add a hint of Truffle Oil to it as well5. bunch of kale (I like the Lacinato aka Italian Kale you can ...

Wishing all my readers, friends and acquaintances a very Merry Christmas and those who do not celebrate this great Holiday wishing you a great Holiday Season.I love Christmas Eve, we had a wonderful dinner, Diane's request was Sword Fish, since her father loved it and we have not had it in years. Now with that said. here is a glimpse of the dinner. Baked Sword Fish with Sauteed Spinach and Mushrooms and mash potatoes.Last few days we had some good eats I need to post about them. On a side note, I always wonder why people do not decorate their homes? What is the reason? Attitude, money, effort or just lack of spirit? This is our Horizontal Christmas Tree thanks to having cats:))))     Wishing you a safe and healthy life and I look forward to your comments. If you are looking for a knowle...

What a pleasant surprise: a flag arrived in the mail, This Act of Kindness was very much appreciated by Diane and me. I would like to thank Nina Hollander, Broker  for this wonderful surprise. One of the many wonderful benefits of being on this platform is the relationships and friendships that we developed over the years. Not only have I received and given referrals, but the wonderful surprises that I have received over the years are just an added benefit of being on this platform.Just to mention a few of the items we have received over the years from Active Rain Members were, cookbooks from Texas, cookbooks from New York and ‘Ma Gastronomie’ by Fernand Point to name a few.

Here we are it is the Friday night before Christmas... I wanted to surprise Diane with a special dinner. So, with that said I reach out to my newest cookbook "From the Oven to the Table" those who read my post know this was my latest acquisition to my cookbooks. There were a couple recipes that I had my eye on. p.s.: as my regular readers know, once I make a dish the cookbook is paid for:).Today's meal I chose as a side dish to my main course. The main course was baked & grilled Lobster tails. Now with that said I opted for the Roasted Autumn Vegetables with a Miso Sauce.It is a bit labor intensive but worth every effort.The ingredients:     1 Celery root (peeled and cut into 1/4 inch thickness                                    2. Multicolored Carrots (for different flavors            ...

It Never Rains in Southern California, I am sure you heard the song... I am dating myself the year was 1972 when it was first publicly released.Just as many of my readers who do not live in the greater Los Angeles do not believe me that we have four seasons. The only difference is that our seasons are milder.On the other hand, when we have rain, Oh Boy it is like going through a car wash is the best comparison. I took a few photos for the nonbelievers:) Also do not fret we are clearly out of the drought based on the last few days and there are a couple more rainy days ahead for u.   Wishing you a safe and healthy life and I look forward to your comments.

What did you make for dinner tonight? or what did you have for dinner tonight? Clearly not everyone cooks on a Saturday night... Diane and I prefer to be at home relaxing on the weekend. So with that said I made a pasta dish. Should I say seafood pasta dish. It consisted of Rigatoni and squid ink pasta aka spaghetti. The ingredients were mussels mixed with shrimp, scallop and calamari. I already had the sauce made in advance hence it was like "jar sauce" then to boot I added some mushrooms.Wishing you a safe and healthy life and I look forward to your comments.

Here was a headline of a few hours ago:  California to vote on allowing ‘toilet-to-tap’ projects: What to know...Some Californians could find themselves flushing a future drinking water source down their commodes in just a few years’ time — pending the approval of long-awaited, but misnamed, “toilet-to-tap” rules next week. There are many other things going on as well. not wanting to make this a political post instead just asking for your thoughts.Not trying to digress, but every year U-Haul comes out with the list of fifty states where they stand with outward and inward migration. I used to enjoy this over the decades. Just to be clear 26 years ago my first niche market was "relocation specialist" Since I have moved around the Globe, and all over the US as well. Hence, I was able to pr...

As most of you know, I have a niche market selling Vacant Land in the greater Los Angeles area. Well today I received a notice from One Drive where my photos are saved unbeknown to me.It has actually been fun that I get notified daily about photos I took with my cellphone many years ago on the particular date they happened to send to me.Now with that said today's fun photos were about six years ago. The owner asked me to list a couple of his vacant lots. I went out and took some pictures to determine values.When I send him what I thought the land was worth listing and would sell for he got mad and clearly did not agree with my take.Well look at these photos, I laughed and, on a side, note six years later I check today it still did not sell.Wishing you a safe and healthy life and I look ...

Diane went to the hairdresser and to do other errands, hence I had three hours of peaceful time to work on the indoor decorations.When she got home, she told me she was not surprised. So, with that said if I wanted to Suprise her, I would need to skip the indoor decorations:)))Wishing you happy decorating and hope you get it done before Christmas eve:)  Wishing you a safe and healthy life and I look forward to your comments.

Today, we visited Vroman's one of our favorite bookstores in Pasadena, CA... no, we did not go to the Wine Bar, but I did manage to get another cookbook.Not sure, but if I counted right, I would be very close to having this as number 100. I need to have a recount count. Last time I counted I did not include the ones in my home office that I am in the middle of always reading. Hence Diane graciously reminded me today: "...another cookbook..."? Told her there are three recipes she would love. Needless to say, on the way home she asked about it and let her know.In case you are wondering it is called "From the Oven to The Table". I do a lot of baked meals and it is easy to do and tastes better than boiling or sauteing.Yes, there are many wonderful baked recipes, just to tease you, beets, sa...

Throwback Thursdays: Love "One Drive" the photos keep on coming... sometimes it is a distraction because I click on it and then I am motivated to see other photos and spend some time reflecting on the past.This of course can be a huge distraction and not what I intended on doing. I am very obsessive and compulsive about time management, hence I could say "One Drive is not my friend." Wishing you a safe and healthy life and I look forward to your comments.
