A little crazy...

Sorry for the downtime - things are kind of crazy around here! We found out a couple weeks ago that Jeff's Mom was having some heart issues. It turned out she needs surgery, so Jeff and I spent Saturday, with Gus in toe, driving from Minneapolis out to Pennsylvania. We are taking her in Monday morning (tomorrow) and she'll be in the hospital for close to 5 days. With us out here, we can take care of things during her long recovery time - we expect to be out here for at least two weeks. Gus is excited to be Mr. Therapy Pup!

I do have quite a few recipes to get posted that we've made over the past few weeks and I'll get to them as soon as I can. Stay tuned for updates...
