I was just going to do a FaceBook post, but this is a bit easier. This is a first for us, so it’s been an adventure in volunteering! It’s also been a lot of fun – and a lot of help to the kids. The school system has cut so many budgets to the bone […] Read more…

I posted this on my Aunt’s site last month – I’ve been busy, so I’ll re-post it like I should’ve weeks ago ! This started out as a post for vanilla extract, but since it takes a while to make, that’ll be later. In the meantime, it seems I’ve used up almost all of my […] Read more…
Food Truck Fiesta 2015 : A surprise bit of fun
Last evening my family went to our local high school for a ‘Food Truck Fiesta’ – a what!? Yeah, they had one last year and it was kind of lack luster, some of the trucks didn’t show and some ran out of food, so we weren’t expecting a lot. Wow, was I wrong ! […] Read more…
WWHS Mardi Gras Night : Perfect ‘date night’,… you’re welcome.

Renningers Antique Extravaganza : Where else can I get an 8 ft dinosaur?

Outstanding in the Field : You never knew you needed this on your bucket list
Newsflash : My sister raises pigs. Yes, pigs. Yes, she has a day-job because these, high maintenance pigs take so much care and cash that she has to work to support her swine-habit.

Magnolia Terrace Tea Room: not to be overlooked
I collect things,…and I have a collection of girlfriends. They are the GNO crew (Girls Night Out). Many years ago we all started going to and arranging various home parties.

Tilted Teacup : the second edition
Some time ago I posted about a tiny tea room in Brooksville called The Tilted Teacup. Well, they’ve moved – so you know I had to go back. Lucky for me my young friend Mia had recently had a birthday and that was a really good excuse. Besides, school has half-days this week. Let’s go! […] Read more…
