They Just Choke On Their Artichokes

Just about to launch a new career Or maybe I should call it a hobby Dani Spies has certainly caught my attention With her mouth watering recipes And easy step-by-step videos to help us along I'm drooling all over the keyboard as I type I'm always game to try something new The payoff at the end is the ultimate reward Now I hear some of you saying... “Are you nutso!!! Aren't you kinda old To be firing off in a new direction?” My answer to that is, “I ain't dead am I? I'm always ready for a new challenge!” And boy, what a rewarding hobby... yum, yum!!! I'll keep you posted as to how much weight I gain (ie. One of the annoying side effects!) Wish me luck all you nice people! Next I'll have a show on PBS entitled “Old Chefs Never Die They Just Choke On Their Artichokes”

I’ve been losing weight and my eye for food has never been greater. I end up finding interesting recipes, like now I know what pesto is as I was given a bunch of basil from my daughter’s garden. I hooked it up with a mortal and pestle and of course good old pine nuts. Let’s have fun…a party. Keep cook’n good look’n!

Oh yes the weight thing! Sometimes it seems like a losing battle eh! It's so easy to say "oh well, so be it, one comes with the other" Not if we manage our intake properly... difficult! Love to you my sweetie Kim! Enjoy your weekend! XOX
