For those of you who have been following for several years, I thank you! And for the people who are fairly new to my blog, I thank you too! I do appreciate all of you who read my recipes and try them. I look forward to hearing your comments also. This is my cooking and day to day life but I want to get and hold your interest. Please leave a comment here if there is a recipe that you would like to see and I have not posted anything related. The photo on this post is my butcher’s block. Some of you may recognize the top from finished dishes I have posted. Well, here it is full on. I bought it from a butcher shop in that un-named Northeastern state where I was born and raised. I love this thing. I only wish that my house looked more like a cabin than the 1990’s refab ranch house that it is. Ah well. Maybe I will get to do some remodeling. Paint can cover up a multitude of sins!
