It is no secret to people who know me that I am an antique lover. However, before you go thinking that I have a bunch of one of a kind somethings laying around, realize that the picture above is a piece from my collection. Yes the elusive run of the mill Phone Chair. Not much in my collection is priceless. Some might be considered some of my pieces odd or even unique but rare and priceless there are not.
Most of what I have is what people refer to as old stuff. Some have even gone as far as calling it junk. But as we says in the antique business one man s junk is another man s treasure. Old stuff can be cool the way it is found and it can also be awesome when it is repurposed. One day the phone chair pictured above will be painted and have a new cushion but for now it stays as found.

Enter Hudson Valley Grocery Heart Healthy Recipe Contest
Heart health is something that we all need to keep in mind no matter what our age. Eating healthy means a healthier heart and throughout the month of February we are asked to focus on our heart health. February is American Heart Month according to the National Days Calendar who also tells us that it has been in existence since 1964 when President Lyndon B Johnson declared the first American Heart Month in order to address heart disease in America.
Eating healthy can be hard but if we do our best at it then the occasional plate of waffles fries won t be so bad. Everything in moderation is how the saying goes for those of us who can t quite give up all the food with fat. Just this past weekend I enjoyed this amazing plate of fries.
Ketchup vs Tartar Sauce: There is No Clear Winner
If you are like me then you know the only way to make fish taste good is to drowned it in some sort of sauce. With everyone talking about eating fish for lent this week it got me thinking about all the things I would put on fish to make it taste good. Don t get me wrong I have had some great fish dishes that I didn t have to bury in sauce but that is because they were prepared with some other amazing favor or spice rub.
I did a little research online to see if I could find out if people prefer ketchup or tartar sauce on their fish and unfortunately I was unable to find any statistic that would say whether people had a preference. I think it is safe to say it is split down the middle. At my house I am the tartar sauce girl while my husband loves the ketchup.
Why You Should Have a Hot Breakfast Everyday this Month
February 2021 so far in the Hudson Valley has been a bit cold to say the least. And what s with all the snow. I am ready for warmer weather but unfortunately the long term forecast and the Ground Hog all agree there is 6 more weeks of this weather. So how about we focus less on February s weather and more on what this month is known for like being National Hot Breakfast Month.
While it is cold and snowy outside we can stay warm and happy inside with a tasty hot breakfast. According to the National Days Calendar the origin of this month being hot breakfast month is unknown but they do state that it s purpose is to get us to start our day off right with a good hot breakfast. And honestly I can t think of a better way to start a day especially when it is so cold outside.
