It's That Time Again: The Seventh Annual Weekly Eats Roundup

Friends, where does the time go????  Once upon a time I was a recipe blogger, and one day I sat down in front of the computer and got the urge to write a weekly recap of my meals, my workouts, what I was watching, and what I was reading.  That was seven years ago and I've never looked back.

Every year around the anniversary of the first weekly roundup post, I write a "Birchwood New Year" recap of the best of the best things of the year.

Let's Go Places: Charleston and New River Gorge National Park, West Virginia

 

Last weekend was...you guessed it...Boy Scout camp weekend.  Hubs and the boys went to the woods, the puppy went to Doggy camp, and I went places.

If you've ever driven through West Virginia on I-77, you've seen the golden dome of the State Capitol as you've passed by Charleston.  I've driven by it many times in my life, and now it was finally up next on my travel list.
