Green bowl full of chicken broth based soup with potatoes, Swiss cheese, egg ribbons, and dark rye croutons.

So I embraced my Czech heritage tonight and made Česneková polévka, Garlic Potato Soup. I am choosing to believe that this is the potato soup my dad was nostalgic for so often. Grandma Marie Jirak’s soup, it’s a Czech staple apparently, so how could it not be right? #heritagecooking #czech #dinner

Can’t find the reel this came from, but used recipe as a guide. I felt it warm in my chest while drinking and that still feels good. Iranian Tea for Colds
for every 1 cup of milk, use 5 dates, 2 whole walnuts, and 3-5g of fresh ginger. Cardamom and cinnamon to your liking.

What if 8 pm is the new midnight and cranberry ginger ale is the new champagne? #HappyNewYear2026

What do I want for Christmas?

A mysterious manor in the Scottish countryside, a library of vintage novels, a collection of the world’s rarest wines, an owl to deliver and retrieve my post, a butler with a mysterious backstory, and my own personal pastry chef.

I'm really not that hard to shop for.

Lovely!

I didn’t know I needed this today but it’s the best thing!

Full pan of ramen noodles, beef strips, and green vegetables.

Making a single Round Steak into a meal for 5. Beef & Broccoli Ramen - but I also added onions, green onions, fennel, a Daikon radish, spinach, and a little arugula. And I used more ramen than suggested. natashaskitchen.com/beef-and-bro... #CSAshare #gardening #homecooking #cookingsky #eatyourgarden

Stay safe!!!

Ohhh thanks for sharing this! I have good memories of Devils Lake!

Teen driving is a whole other level of this parenting gig. Not meant for the faint of heart. How did my dad manage 5 through the driving years? Also how did he manage the patience to insist we all learn on a manual transmission? #parentingteens #driving #teendriving

A neighbor broke the ground up for me this summer with a backhoe that he’d rented for his own use one weekend. The cardboard is to keep the weeds down - functioning like landscape paper. I will likely layer mulched leaves and chipped yard debris over it. Then let it sit for the winter like that.

Cardboard covering a 3 foot deep x 60 foot wide stretch of lawn right in front of a chain link fence.

Back yard filled with fallen leaves and cardboard covered swath next to fence.

Fallen leaf covered backyard with pine tree, swing set and cardboard covered swath in front of fence.

Prepping my new planting area for next spring. Along back fence I am going to plant forsythia, coneflower, blue sage, English lavender, black eyed Susan, white lilac, hydrangea, sunflower, climbing rose, passion flower, and clematis seeds and see what happens. #gardensky #tinyjoys #gardening 🌱

Toast topped with fresh basil leaves, arugula, sliced tomatoes, sliced cucumbers, salt and Parmesan cheese.

I’m still hanging on to my summer breakfasts in October in Michigan. Yes, I had to buy the cucumber & bread, but hey everything else is pure #CSA baby! #tinyjoys #gardening #eatyourgarden #michigan 🌱

Go Tim Walz - keep up the good fight.

So no terrorism then?

That’s a load-bearing “if” there. The one i attended had a bustling area full of tents with petitions, political education, and volunteer signups for mutual aid and ICE watch. People are more likely to take real action when they’ve had a chance to speak with people who are taking action.

As a former English major and fellow bibliophile, this speaks to me.

Teenager holds sign that says Veto the Cheeto

Sign says “When Tyranny Becomes Law, Rebellion Becomes Duty

Sign says Free Speech is Not a Crime.

Jack Skellington holds a sign saying No Pumpkin Kings.

It wasn’t easy for me and just one of my family members to get out for #NoKings Day 10/18/2025, but I’m so glad we did. Riverside Park full with everyone from babies to elderly. And loud! Cars traveling by honking horns and waving signs. It was like an hour long parade! #resist #truthtopower

Chicken chili with black beans, corn, cilantro, tomatoes, in a light brown broth

A version of hubby’s White Chicken Chili. Two girls mostly love the accompanying tortilla chips best 🤣 Hubby was too tired to eat dinner tonight. That makes a full crock pot of chili for me and Triplet E. #tinyjoys #homecooking #cookingsky #soupseason #fallfavorites

Chicken Tikka Masala over rice on a white and black plate.

What’s for dinner? Chicken Tikka Masala, the one Indian dish I can make. www.eatingwell.com/recipe/26507... #Homecooking #CookingSky #IndianFood

White paper plate with a serving of ratatouille risotto.

I call it Ratatouille Risotto and it’s a 1 pot meal. I used ratatouille vegetables, added a sweet potato and a delicata squash. Fresh greens and herbs, then rice and broth. Finished with mozzarella and Parmesan. Very complex and velvety great way to use CSA veggies. #cookingsky #CSA #homecooking

🔥3/4 of my family were MURDERED in the Holocaust. I heard the stories & the horror first hand. What is going on in America under Donald Trump's Administration is chillingly similar to Hitler's rise to power.

ICE detention centers have immigrants REFUSED due process & DEATHS WITH ZERO TRANSPARENCY!🔥

Upgrade Pasta Night with Salmon and Creamed Spinach Fettuccini This fast weeknight pasta is elegant and easy!

Finished off with some lemon zest, lemon juice, and some capers. (Also took down a container of vegetable broth I had prepared and frozen before and I used as necessary to keep it from getting too sticky while cooking.) 6/7

Finally time for protein. I cut up 2 cooked salmon fillets into bite size pieces (pan fried the night before with Old Bay seasoning, salt, pepper, and garlic powder).
5/7

At this point I remembered I had about one serving left from the Aldi-brand packaged fettuccine Alfredo side dish I made for kids’ lunches earlier. I dumped it in and stirred it hoping it would just get lost in the new meal. 4/7
