	Oatmeal Raisin Cookies by Lana Stuart Oatmeal Raisin CookiesI’m away from home this week for work. It’s something I have to do every once in a while and I don’t mind. Except that I always miss BeeBop so much when I’m gone for a few days. We’ve been married almost 24 years and like many couples, we’ve had to spend some time apart over those years. One or the other of our…	1 vote 2048 views

I’m happy to report that the visit went very well and…	1 vote 1080 views
	Buttery Barbecued Chicken by Lana Stuart I hope everyone had a wonderful long weekend and enjoyed some good cooking! We sure did.

We went swimming (or they did while I watched with my ankle propped up), cooked a lot of good food, and just generally enjoyed doing whatever we pleased for a few days.This…	1 vote 1056 views
	Cinnamon Brown Sugar Waffles by Lana Stuart Cinnamon Brown Sugar WafflesFebruary 16, 2016 By Lana Stuart 3 CommentsWeekend mornings here are usually a very relaxed time. Because the weekdays are so rushed with BeeBop heading off to work, our usual breakfast is a simple bowl of cereal or an English muffin. But on the weekends, we do like to take a little more time and ease into…	1 vote 308 views
