Fine Cusine

I was looking through old cookbooks the other day and laughed when I came across a recipe I made ONE time about 30 years ago. All you moms know how hard it is to come up with a dish that pleases everyone and I was sure I had a winner. My entire family likes German potato salad and what kid doesn’t like hot dogs. After following the directions for the German potato salad I put it in a round baking dish, split the hot dogs lengthwise and stood them up around the outside edge of the bowl and put the dish in the oven to brown the hot dogs.  Read more >

Reincarnation Radio

Well, I did it again. I promise that I really didn't mean to make the girl behind the bank counter feel bad. I stopped by Wal-Mart (or as it is known in the South...Wal-Marts) to stock my shelves for Hurricane Hannah and since my bank has a branch inside the store I stopped there first to deposit a check that I had been carrying around forever. Did I have a deposit slip?  Read more >

My daughter...the chicken whisperer.

Polly's family live so far out in the sticks that it is a 45 minute drive (ONE WAY) to take the children to school. I know this for a fact because my friend Barb and I stayed with the children for a month one week while their parents were on a business trip and when you are trying to get three kids fed, teeth brushed, school uniforms on, lunches packed and hair braided Barb and I discovered (out of necessity) that with a slight adjustment to the speed limit it is possible to knock several minutes off of that 45.  Read more >

About Me: 
Still trying to figure out who I am and what I will be when I finally grow up. Over the years my life motto has become "If It Ain't Fun Then I Ain't Doin' It" so I really don't see much hope on the horizon for me becoming a mature adult anytime soon. I lost my wonderful husband of almost 30 years to cancer in 2002 and my first hurdle was learning how to be alone. I currently share my home with two cats which makes me one cat short of a cliche. Morty is a Munchkin breed cat and suffers terribly from short man syndrome. Ginglebelle is a rescue kitty who is happy to be out from under a broken down porch and living in a condo at the beach. My two daughters, their husbands and six of the most beautiful, handsome, smart and talented grandchildren in the entire world are the center of my life.
