Landlocked No More

By admin | Published: January 19, 2012

Oklahoma gets a bad wrap.  Not all the time…it deserves an eye roll every time there is a shirtless man telling about the latest tornado.  Not to mention summers are HOT with only the relief of luke warm pools and dirty holes in the ground to cool off.  Winter is usually cold  with little snow [...]

Not in My House — Foodie Lesson 2

By admin | Published: September 1, 2011

Foodie is all too often viewed in a negative light.  Some think that it implies that you are a luxury snob or knowledge snob.  I strongly disagree.  I will freely admit that I can be a hotel snob and the State Fair continues to yuck me out.  However, foodie is not a term of snobbishness. [...]

Primer on Foodie Movies: Lesson 1

By admin | Published: August 24, 2011

I posted a question into the Twitterverse last week asking, “What are your favorite foodie movies?”  I did not get one single response.  Apparently I am the only one who keeps a running list of foodie movies.  That is a sad state of affairs people.  The only response I did get….I assume….was an invite to [...]

Vancouver Revisited

By admin | Published: July 14, 2011

Every time I travel, I have all intentions of documenting our trip here on my blog. I take pictures, a lot of pictures, I collect menus, I make mental notes, I have even started “checking in” with Facebook along the way in case I lose my pictures or notes in a tragic accident.  Upon return, [...]

It’s a Vegetable not a CAPTCHA

By admin | Published: June 6, 2011

I have been branching out more and more taking the boys to the store with me. The first few years they were born, I did this all of the time. But as years have passed and I have more opportunities when they are at school and activities, it has become much easier to go sans [...]

Mother’s Day Brunch

By admin | Published: May 9, 2011

Mother’s Day and My Birthday are “challenges” since my mom died almost two years ago.  These are days that I miss her terribly and often get hung up in the pity party I throw myself…..as if everyone else in the world has the ideal mother….alive and well and always saying the right thing at the [...]

Earth Day Beauty

By admin | Published: April 22, 2011

I have posted and intended to post something special for Earth Day every year.  Spring is such a busy time of the year, this no different than the past, and Earth Day often sneaks by me with very little note.  This year, however, I was prepared.  I had a lot of ideas.  I love to [...]

I Found JOY!

By admin | Published: March 28, 2011

During my end of the year blogging hiatus, my paternal grandmother passed away after several years of failing health. Since then the family has gathered several times for the somewhat awkward meeting of what to do with her belongings. Perhaps this is not strange for everyone, but for some reason this exercise always makes my [...]

Where would you do it?

By admin | Published: February 23, 2011

As the weather is warming up, my mind is fixated on the same thing. I want to do it at a park, on a busy street, maybe a median, for sure in a field and on top of a mountain. I have done it in a couple of art galleries, a history museum, and the [...]
