If you were to observe any of the women in my family at a restaurant, you would note that each of us when we unroll our napkins, we place them immediately in our laps and proceed to set our silverware out in it’s proper place. I don’t want to say that we had lots of […]

So, far my trip to Texas has given me a change to disconnect. It’s easy to do with no computer, no Internet and no cell phone reception.
I’ve spent hours on this porch sitting in a rocking chair, drinking sangria and watching the water.
I bought a box of sparklers at this firework stand.
I drove to Snook […]
Blue Bell and I go way back. When I got pulled over for my first time for speeding, the officer said, “I clocked you going 60 back there by the creamery (aka, Blue Bell).” For a 16 year old, those words would change life as I knew it. I would after that night, proceed to […]
My obsession with packing my lunch continues. When I’m out browsing recipies or grocery shopping I want to find:
My main course
A side item
Fruit
Something crunchy
AND, I know this may sound lazy or lame, but I want a lunch that I don’t have to heat. It’s so far from my office to the breakroom, that I want […]

This is the part of my desk I’m willing to show. What you don’t see just out of this frame is:
The 3/4 of warm Diet Coke that I got this morning with my last four quarters.
A warm jar of Starbucks Mocha coffee drink.
2 peanutbutter and cheese crackers (I had to borrow the .55 cents to […]

I’ve been doing a pretty good job packing lunch. One problem however is that if I don’t leave the office to eat lunch, it’s quite often that I’ll get to work at 8AM and not walk outside once until it’s time to go home. But, I do feel tons better and haven’t been getting the […]

We have the capacity to make change. My little sister’s favorite saying is from Ghandi; “Be the change you wish to see in the world.” Last year, I decided to integrate a theme into my blog on ways I can reduce, reuse recycle. It was last year at this time that I spent a week […]
“I don’t know why anybody would eat fish that comes from warm water.” I had never thought about the difference between cold water and warm water fish until on day when we were talking about food, Alaska born Molly said that. I’m not much of a fish eater anyways. I love shell fish and you’d […]

Sometimes I watch the Weather Channel. Not often. It’s one of those channels you don’t realize is on, don’t know how it got there, but nonetheless, it’s on. Sorta like when NPR turns off and switches to jazz. You’re still listening until something jolts and you switch the station.
So, it had to have been during […]

There’s a coffee shop by my house has a board up for patrons to write down song lyrics they thought said something else. If this was a contest, I know I would win hands down! Nobody can mess up a song like I can. A few years ago I got a red convertible, and named […]
