In August fragrant basil leaves are abundant in gardens and pots. Pesto sauce is the best way to use up all those yummy basil leaves. I wanted to come up with a recipe to use up the huge amount of basil leaves I had grown in pots on my deck, and we love pesto sauce so I played around and made up a recipe for Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto Sauce. I enjoy coming up with new recipes, I love playing in the kitchen and this one tickled my tongue delightfully strong. This website uses affiliate links. ... Continue Reading...

Visiting Minnesota’s Largest Candy Store
Recently I took my kids to Valleyfair for the day, but before we headed to the amusement park, we drove a bit further south to visit a candy store. It was not just any candy store. It was a giant candy store! We adored visiting Minnesota's Largest Candy Store. The candy store is located about twenty minutes south of Valleyfair in Jordan, Minnesota. I thought we would be in there for a short fifteen stop, um yeah, I was so wrong. We spent about forty-five minutes in there and we could ... Continue Reading...
Poetry By Julie Hoag
Hello and welcome to my website. I am an author, a lifestyle/food blogger, and a freelance writer. I also adore poetry. This is Poetry by Julie Hoag, that's me:) Contrary to popular belief, poetry is not dead. Poetry is alive. It speaks volumes more than some whole books...at least children's books! Ha! Kidding. Poetry is sweet sands of time living to fill in the cracks and glorify the everyday. Poetry is puns and sometimes cringe-worthy, but also littered with sparkling laughter and bitter ...

Baby Robins in a Nest Under Our Deck and American Robin Videos
I was delighted this late spring to see robin eggs appear in the nest on the beam just below our deck. We saw the mama bird flying to and from her then current home on the nest where she sat on the eggs for days. We waited patiently for the baby robins to hatch. I would peek daily between the deck boards to get a glimpse of mama robin's beautiful precious world. I felt so very lucky to have a front-row view as she ushered new life into this world.

Sausage and Egg Casserole Veggie Loaded, Low Carbohydrate Recipe
This is a Sausage and Egg Casserole that's Veggie Loaded, and Low in Carbs. I like this recipe because it has no added in carbs. It's a hybrid recipe...which means it is easily adaptable to work for both vegetarians and meat-eaters; this is accomplished by careful placement of the ground sausage. My family is a split table family where some want meatless meals and others want meat, so I've developed several hybrid recipes that work for both. This is a VEGGIE PACKED egg bake dish. If you want a ... Continue Reading...
