Quick and easy, no cook meal–feeding one or many

March 9, 2025June 27, 2025Anna--The Adventurer Leave a comment

I admit, there are days when heating up the kitchen just isn’t in the cards; a quick but healthier choice is what I desire.

Ingredients (for 2 people)

4 slices of your favorite bread

Mayo or Miracle Whip (generic of either is fine)

1 Roma Tomato, sliced up

Yellow Mustard (or brown or spicy, whatever you have on hand)

Celery Stalk and a hand full of baby carrots (or a regular carrot, peeled and cut)

2 slices of Cheddar Cheese (or whatever real cheese you have on hand, sliced)

Layer the bread with mayo, mustard, one slice of cheese and half the tomato slices. Cut Sandwhich in half.

Plate the sandwich with half the celery stalk and carrots, garnish with a piece of dill pickle. All said and done in less than 8 minutes. Voila! A fiber rich meal with veggies and protein.

Don’t forget to shop on my eBay! Every purchase benefits the Wild Life Sanctuary in Keensburg, Colorado.

Decorating for Christmas–inspired original art

December 15, 2024May 28, 2025Anna--The Adventurer 1 Comment

$124.99 with free shipping https://www.ebay.com/itm/226498341381 (ebay link)
An original 9″x12″ framed original oil painting, signed by the arist Anna Potthoff (AP) done in oil paints on a cotton canvas board. The original art is already framed but the frame can be changed by the buyer if so desire. The Christmas tree painting is ready to hang. The purchase also includes free shipping to the USA (but can be shipped world wide for an additional fee).

The painting was inspired by the large Frasier Fir in the front of my parent’s drive way that was just small when they moved in but has grown tremendously and stands tall and proud out in the field by their mail box. I dream of decorating it with large baubles and twinkly lights sets up against the sun setting in the west over the Rocky Mountains in Colorado. There is red paint brush plants and hues of dried grasses all about, which beautifully reflect the sunsets as well.

The painting is one of a kind, unique and would adorn any home or office perfectly–Can be used year around or seasonally as one so desires–an affordable, handmade one of a kind gift for yourself or a loved one. Make me an offer.

Celebrating the season–gifts worth sharing, free shipping, AND handmade–the perfect trio! Happy Shopping (yes, I made the items!)

The weather outside if frightful and the food bank could use some supplies and stocking up–an Amazon wish list is here!

There are many many items under $2-$3-$4 and $5-making giving super affordable! Each item also ships free if you have Prime and is sent directly to the food pantry!

There are also larger ticket items, like cases of soup that would go a bit further–also free shipping! And don’t forget, can openers (also on the list) help open those great items!

I hope we can help get their shelves stocked for those in need this winter season and afterwards! $5 in food donations can go a long way (several items can be purchased for a combined total of $5!)but you don’t have to stop at $5 if you wish to do more, Happy Shopping and Giving!

Here’s the Amazon wish link!

*here is a thought, in lieu (or in addition to) doing an advent calender, you could send a canned/boxed food item a day to the food bank (or all at once) !!!

Season’s Greetings!!! It is time, Sir–they are waiting.

Prayers and Blooms, Biblical Gardens Along the River, Elgin, Scotland

October 10, 2024December 4, 2024Anna--The Adventurer Leave a comment

A simple walk and I stumbled across a gated community Biblical Garden here in Elgin. It’s blooms, despite being mid-to-late fall are still abundant and fragrant, cascading over the walls and embankments of their containers and garden beds, yet leaving the pathways accessible.

There are stone placquards across the garden,interlaced with statues and carvings. Upon one statue, where the disciples hands are out-stretched, a person has left a blanket/throw for someone in need–an offering!

I am unsure if the gardens are open all year long but it was a wonderful place to reflect, enjoy my coffee, and commune.

The RoseGarden with Lunch

While in Tain today, we ate more fish and chips (it’s so delicious, especially with malt vinegar and salt!) We stopped at the local chippy, to pickup lunch and a beverage, after doing some walking and touring. We went down to the Rose Garden to enjoy our meal, spectacular meal with quite a view!
