About Me

My photo
My mom used to cook the most inexpensive meals on Thursdays. She called it, "Poor Thursday!" It was something she felt was important for us to know, in case we ever went through the depression like she did. Also, my grandmother on my fathers side was a great Irish cook! Pasties and kidney pies, and stories to boot! I personally feel that the younger generation is losing the art of cooking from scratch and using staples to generate the base of the meal! Just because I use the word cook doesn't mean that it takes long to get something on the table! With kids coming and going and parties and work schedules, we hardly have the time. But, look at the health of our families, and the nation!!! The lost of art of whipping up nutritious food isn't that hard to learn! In fact, you can be quite inventive! So, here it is. My recipe blog. For my children, my friends and all of you out there who care to try something hot and delicious! Mamma Mungo's Soup Kitchen! Open for business and serving Man Food Daily!!! LOL. That means tummy filling food! Comments and questions are welcome!

The path where I walk each day!

This is Hyblos Wetland Park where Vinny and I walk!  It is beautiful and
it is right here in Federal Way!  Here are some more of the pictures!
 


This is a tree in the park that has huge mushrooms growing all the way up to the top!  It made me laugh because I thought it looked like stair steps for elves or fairies!  Hahahaha. 



Vinny had a heart attack in 2005.
 Since then, we have tried to get walking in but in this frigid weather,
though it is difficult sometimes.  But, no matter the weather,
 Hyblos always has something new to see,
 and we do love walking in this little piece of heaven!

This tree is so huge that it is hard to see the perspective,
but trust me, if Vinny was standing by the tree, He couldn't even reach
the bottom branches.  Of course you can see all it's leaves below it!
It is an ancient Maple, and just plain beautiful!

Everywhere you look off the sides of the path, there is water!
Thus, Hyblos Wetlands!
There are some meadows, but beware, if you step off the path,
even on what seems to be solid ground,
you may find yourself sinking!
So follow the warnings,
enjoy the beauty,
and stay on the path!!!

  1. Hmmmm, I guess I will need to post new blog and pictures once we find a place to walk in Tampa! It will be such a shock to the system! I will be able to walk in shorts instead of winter londen fogs with mittens and crocheted hats! And don't forget those lovey long johns. No, on second thought, DO forget them! Hahahaha
