We just keep moving from place to place. Everything we have packed up in the back four foot by five foot space of our REBA truck.
Moving from one hotel to another. One 'online' deal to another. Trying to stay ahead of our bank account.
No money left for doctors. Prescriptions running out.

a hint of what's to comeOver a week into being 90% Diet Coke free. Trust me, this is NOT by choice. I am no longer 'allowed' to drink dark colored colas, at all. And, diet sodas are apparently horrific for you in general. 😒Or, perhaps it is the ina…Read More

Way back in August of 2016, I learned I am allergic to wheat, milk, sesame and soy. Other foods like egg whites, peanuts, shrimp, walnuts were also on the foods to avoid list. Since then, it has been a journey of learning a whole new way to look at food and cooking.
My youngest daughter, Natalie has helped me create recipes that are, at times gluten-free, sometimes just wheat-free, and yes, there is a difference.
While this blog began as a food/recipe only blog, our life has changed 180 degrees in the past couple of years.
In September of 2019, we became a 100% RV living family of three. After just over a year and a half of both fulltime RVing and worldwide pandemic, we turned in our keys and put the trailer into storage.
This sunshiny blog records the craziness of our lives and is now the perfect place to document another momentous life change. As I write this, I am still surrounded by boxes, so many boxes. And so little furniture.
We spent 15 months being hotel nomads. 21 tucked inside an RV. What the future holds from here, it is hard to say. Today, I am watching a couple of house finches build a nest in my begonia plant hanging out on our new patio. Life is good.
As we lay our RV dreams to rest, I will continue to document the triumphs and challenges of downsizing from house to apartment to hotel to our successful goal of full time RV living and now back into an apartment.
There are plenty of trails to hike and oceans vistas to gaze upon.
As always, we will new recipes using our IP (instant pot) once I find the electric cord, missing from the move. And, for the first time in over three years, we have a real oven…macarons, corn bread, MEAT LOAF! Oh, so many possibilities. Recipes to come!
These first few days, we are enjoying just having space to breathe. Hope you enjoy this journey as much as we do. Time to get this show off the ROAD, setup and ready for new adventures.
By the way, I write as I roll, please excuse any misspellings. I will come back and fix them at some point. Life is busy, busy, busy.
