    Root Beer Floats {and a birthday tradition}

    September 23, 2015 / 4 Comments

    Root Beer. I asked a simple question to the other B in my life earlier this week.  I wasn’t quite expecting her response.  “How do you feel about Root Beer?”  Hands to the face, audible OMGosh, I LOOOVE Root Beer…YES! omg, omg, omg. Check!  This girl is crazy for root beer.  I had a plan of how to celebrate my dear friend’s birthday.  Until that moment.

    Your Last Meal {Sundays with Shelby}

    July 26, 2015 / 7 Comments

    We’re having a lovely Sundays with Shelby afternoon/evening.  Instead of our traditional set out on an adventure, we’re hanging in.  She arrived hungry as I was finishing two summer thyme soups (recipes coming soon), and she loved them both.

    Happy 3rd Anniversary Lemony Thyme

    June 18, 2015 / 1 Comment

    Three years ago today I ‘published’ my first post to Lemony Thyme.  Eggs Benedict ~ Two Ways.  Year one was a blur, year two was a bit more controlled, year three was very different.  It took the first two years for me to find balance.  My scales were tipping in the wrong direction.  Let’s take a look at some of the highlights from year three, then we’ll talk about the scale.

    Rosemary Ham & Swiss Savory Bread Pudding

    June 11, 2015 / 1 Comment

    My kid.  I love her completely. Her hugs. Listening skills. Eye contact. Thirst for knowledge. Hugs. Witt. Sense of adventure. Genuine interest in what you’re saying. Having said that, there is an I want this now and my listening skills have gone out the window at this moment, because I want this now quality about her that I admire. Go get it girl. Which is exactly what she did last week.  I’ll tell you more about that, after I introduce our newest savory dish.  I made a bit of heaven. Rosemary Ham & Swiss Savory Bread Pudding…inspired by a Sunday’s with Shelby outing (which on occasion happens on a Saturday).

    Steamed Veggie Ramen Broth Bowl {with Fried Egg}

    June 1, 2015 / 3 Comments

    I enjoyed a lovely lunch date with Shelby and her roommate Clare.  It was a post-birthday (for Shelby), pre-move in to a new cool place (for Shelby & Clare)…kind of celebration.  Shelby chose a VERY popular restaurant called Buttermilk Kitchen.  However, our hunger level and their wait time didn’t mesh so well.  So we bailed and opted for Noodles. This recipe post is a recreation of the fresh & delicious Steamed Veggie Ramen Broth Bowl {with Fried Egg} I ordered.

    Weight Loss {a dieting diary of sorts}

    May 14, 2015 / 12 Comments

    April 28, 2013 I’ve been threatening a Health Kick, to kick our butts into shape, for quite some time now.  I fear that time is rapidly approaching.  Fear may be a bit strong, but I’m just not there yet.  It usually takes the pop of fresh local produce at the farmers markets to get me out of Winter Comfort and into Savory Summer.  I’ve set my sights on May 1st. The plan above was a pipe dream.

    Sausage & Potato Soup {with Spinach & Bacon}

    February 21, 2015 / 16 Comments

    Sausage & Potato Soup with Spinach & Bacon could be the cousin of Olive Garden’s Zuppa Toscana.  That however, was not at all my motivation for making this new recipe.  Did I tell you the story of how we scored 30+ pounds of bacon and sausage??  Can you imagine the delight when this text message hit my phone.

    Ramen {and a Sundays with Shelby outing}

    December 21, 2014 / 1 Comment

    Due to work and life and more life it had been quite some time since our last Sundays with Shelby outing.  A year ago we were fighting the crowd at Walmart, shopping for Clark’s Christmas Kids, what an awesome day that was.  This year, on the 21st of December, we were shopping for therapy.  That’s where the Ramen comes in.

    Steak Soup

    November 3, 2014 / 6 Comments

    Many years ago I went to Kansas City on a business trip.  I was invited to dinner with a dear friend at one of the wonderful Steakhouses in town.  I informed in advance that besides amazing steaks, this particular establishment was famous for their Steak Soup.

About Libby

Hi, I'm Libby and welcome to Lemony Thyme. I hope you'll enjoy this collection of recipes, eating experiences, and food photography. My cooking abilities rose to a new level when I started incorporating fresh herbs. I began to understand the term ‘layers of flavor’ and found myself deconstructing dishes with my tongue to identify each ingredient.
