what's cooking?

I started out as a broadcast journalist, but fate took its course when I literally fell in love at first sight with my husband of 43 years. I then taught school, of various subjects and age groups and now write about food, health, humor and life.

December

I don't know about all of you, but it's almost with a great relief that the last month of 2020 has arrived.

A good friend and I have said every single year at the end of the year that we hope the coming months would be an improvement. Let's face it, we all go through quite a bit of health issues, financial issues and just everyday life that we would just love it if it would be a bit better.

We used to say:  Well it certainly couldn't get any worse.

And then it did.

Besides the pandemic, I have had five broken bones, an ulcer, Steve was furloughed for three and a half months and we had record-breaking heat levels for the entire year!

Oh yeah, I also had a bit of skin cancer.

My sister and brother-in-law caught the dreaded covid-19! Thank God it was a mild case, but they felt awful for a couple of weeks.

Since I am at high risk, we did not go on our traditional anniversary Cruise. And due to circumstances beyond our control, are long-awaited 40th anniversary family cruise this coming April has been "lifted and shifted" to April of 2022.

Certainly, we cannot forget to mention how our country has been in a state of severe unrest.

Let's all hope that 2021 brings a sense of good health, improved moods and more good days than bad.
