My Life and Times...


This is blooming in my front hallway.  Gorgeous.  I've got a weird plant thing. This is a plant that my grandmother had.  I finally got a piece of it from my Mom.  I think that it's really cool to get a plant when someone dies (that really does sound weird).  I have 3 plants in my house that have come to us when there has been a funeral in the family.  Each one of those plants represents that loved one who died.  It's like a part of them is still living with me... weird.


I ate this today... please don't tell.  I was out and bought it on a whim because I thought it was so small that it just needed to be loved.  But guess what?  I didn't eat all of it.  It wasn't as tasty as my own and I feel like life is too short to eat food just because it's there.  It should be relished and enjoyed.  Especially if it's a brownie.  So I took two bites and then moved on.  It did inspire me to make chocolate cake though.


I also ate this today... it's a quesadilla.  Just plain cheese.  With my own canned green tomato salsa.  Bliss.
I've also been eating my beet pickles and damn (!) they're good.


I'm super proud of Kid #1 right now.  She has just gotten through to the final round of a nation-wide short story competition.  She's going to be published.  Wow.
I'm cooking right now and getting a post ready to send out but I just had to fill you in on my life.
