    Saturday Meanderings

    ByMary Crozier September 16, 2023September 16, 2023

    We are half way through September (already!) and I just returned from 5 day girls trip to Newport Beach, California. There is something so therapeutic in staring at the ocean and the Pacific did not disappoint. With storms off of Mexico, the waves and rip tide made it dangerous to swim. High tide is higher…

    Making Homemade Limoncello

    ByMary Crozier August 22, 2023August 23, 2023

    My husband, Scott announces he wants to make limoncello. Not sure where that ambitious notion comes from but I love this lemony liqueur so I am in full support. We were first introduced to limoncello when we traveled to one of my favorite places, Ravello on the Amalfi coast of Italy. Our very first bottle…
