March 18, 2017 will go down in my personal history as a good day. I was able to enjoy the morning. I read some scriptures that helped me to solidify my faith. I saw some friends and spoke on the phone with some others. The texts and emails made me smile. I had a healthy dinner and am settling in to the evening with a cup of coffee and some banana trifle.
I have been at home alone, this week, while my daughter was in Canada; it was my first real taste of empty nest. It was fine. I got through it. I found that I can handle my own company and when I need more, friends and other family are there for me. All I have to do is ask. I think, in my darkest times, I probably turned down invitations from every friend I had and now it is my turn to ask.

Here is the skinny on me: I am a fun-loving person, with a back that is not fun, I am unemployed, but I work as hard as I can to make a couple of bucks by selling cheese and milk from the dairy of my extended family. I am a widow and a grandmother, a foodie and a music lover. The only drama I enjoy anymore is a TV show called "This Is Us". I have a creative side that wants to sew and paint and re-purpose old furniture. That same creativity is utilized more often in the kitchen creating new combinations of food.
My latest creation is a quite tasty pimento cheese made from Wainwright Dairy and Creamery chipotle cheese. When you make your way to Sunrise Coffee Shop in Madison, FL you could try some if Moruna is feeling gracious (which is always.) She has the only place that serves my exact recipe. I am also ASKING that you buy a block or wedge of cheese while you are there.
Until next time ~Rita
