January 21-26, 2012: Even though I was pretty ill for most of our stay, we had a really nice visit with my family in Florida. We had lunch at Pappa Joe’s, a local favorite of ours. My mother and I made strawberry jam from some Plant City strawberries. On Tuesday, we drove up my brother’s [...]

Back to the Routine

June 15, 2010 |

Here is where I think my blogging failed last time, I am started to get back into a routine.  I don’t think anyone wants to hear how I swept and mopped the floors.  I did do some light cooking with some of the things we purchased at the Athens Farmers’ Market on Saturday.  For lunch [...]

Day Four – Little Island State Park

June 8, 2010 |

We are sitting around deciding how and if we can go to the beach.  It is very odd that I would come to a campground that has a beach and not visit the water.  The park here allows dogs, but not on the beach.  There are dog-friendly beaches but are some distance away.  The solution [...]

Locally Grown Vegetables, Sunday Brunch at Home & a Steelers Win

October 27, 2009 |

I guess I am a post short, even with the day off. I told myself when I started this blog that I would not feel guilty about not posting. I always am giving myself a guilt trip and knew if I started doing that with this blog, I would eventually abandon it. In fact, I [...]

Today I celebrated completing 15,000 trips around the Earth’s axis.  That’s correct I am 15,000 days old.  Don’t bother doing the math, that sums to a good many years.

New Restaurant Tuesday, Enchiladas & a Monster

October 20, 2009 |

Since I spent the majority of Sunday planning this week’s menu (well, playing with a new program and planning meals), we needed to go grocery shopping and pick up all the items on my spiffy auto-generated list.   It was a surprisingly successful adventure.  Usually there are at least a few items that we cannot [...]

A new recipe app, Salsa Verde, and a win for the Dawgs

October 18, 2009 |

I spent the majority of yesterday, planning my menu for the week. It has been a few weeks since I had made a solid menu and shopping list, instead just picking up things as I thought of them. I have many vegetables from Athens Locally Grown that were aging away in my fridge. In my [...]

We moved the bus

September 14, 2009 |

Yesterday we moved Sally from where she has been sitting for over a year. We had moved her out of the way and were beginning to worry that she might never come out. It was pretty stressful squeezing past the trees, but now she is sitting at the end of the driveway for all of [...]

La Fiesta is back

July 30, 2009 |

Our much beloved Mexican-restaurant-down-the-street suffered and fire and closed almost 2 years ago. Since that time we have been seriously missing our local eatery. A few days ago, without fanfare, they re-opened. Tonight we went there for dinner. They are obviously experiencing opening pains as it took quite along time for us to see our [...]
