Pin It I’ve been sitting here staring at my computer screen for about thirty minutes now trying to think of something to say about tuna salad. Tuna salad. Seriously? It’s one of those things that most of us throw together without much thought. And I’d bet that almost every person reading this makes theirs just [...]

Pin It Of course y’all know that I love to cook, but did you know that I’m really not much of a baker? Baked goods kind of make me crazy. All that fiddly measuring and beating and folding. Well, it’s just not so much my favorite kitchen activity. I’d much rather be making a savory [...]

Last Sunday morning was really unusual. Why, you ask? Because I slept until 9:00! That almost never happens. Not that I’m an early, eager riser either. I just usually wake up around 6:30 or so on the weekends and can’t get back to sleep. Probably because that’s about my normal weekday wakeup time. BeeBop was [...]

Pin It Sunshine! There’s sunshine today! Beautiful, bright, brilliant sunshine. Why am I so excited? Because for at least the past week we’ve had either rain or heavy fog. Cold, grey days that seemed to just drag by. Now I’m not complaining about the rain, goodness knows we need it, but just for today I’m [...]

Facebook is such an incredible thing. The brainchild of some wonderfully bright college students, it has grown in just a few years into the major social media site on the internet today. Facebook is great for keeping up with all the comings and goings of your family and friends, but what I like best is [...]
