I’m just your average mom who has made her home here in Alaska for the past 30+ years. I enjoy cooking, photography, hiking, gardening, and spending time with my family.
This blog will touch on a variety of subjects from cooking/recipes to hiking in the back country of Alaska.
I’ll try to post as many photos as possible, so you can view the beautiful scenery that I see every day.
~Enjoy your stay!!~
Found your blog from the Foodie BlogRoll. I so enjoyed Alaska when my hubby and I were there a couple of years ago. We rented a car and drove all over the state, mostly southern half (also did a cruise once, too). The scenery was unbelievable. The halibut. Well, you know all about that! So enjoyed the town of Homer (what a view). I’ve added your blog to my RSS feed.
Hello! Just wanted to write a note because I visited Alaska this summer and found it to be so beautiful. I am from North Dakota so understand some about the weather, just not quite to the same extreme as you endure I’m sure! Enjoyed your blog and Thanks for all your hard work!
I found you on the foodie blogroll and I am so glad! I enjoy all things Alaska! I want to come and visit… have wanted to for years! If it were up to me, I would move there
Except my husband is not on board with that idea (yet)
