Today has been 13 years since Chubs died. Will this be a lucky year? Chubs was the first to pass from our immediate family. There are times when scents or songs take you to a moment with your loved one gone. I know when I smell Chantilly powder, it takes me right to my sweet …
I love French onion soup. I consider myself a bit of a snob for it, as I'm not a soup eater. However, there was this local restaurant that served the absolute BEST French onion soup I ever had. After 45 years in business, and thanks to Covid, the restaurant was closed and sold. I know …
If you're a true NKOTB fan, then you know who Alma Wahlberg is. Many years ago she released some of her favorite recipes in how she fed nine kids on a single income. While inspiring, I found recipes of hers to try. I have made this recipe according to her details, but yesterday I decided …
Are we hours away from 2020 being over? Can we say "Hindsight 20/20" and really mean it? I'm over this year. This will be my final post till 2021. If I were a betting woman, I would bet 100 out of 100 people would say they are over this year, as well. How could a …
Pun intended on my title. I wish my hip would allow me to run. Will it ever again? However, Sara invited me to the gym today for the final workout of the year. I donned my new running britches and was ready to go. I have a note near the end of my blog about …
How do I sum up my Christmas this year? I would have to say it's as close enough to perfect as it could be compared to the year I have had. My niece, Miss Priss, as I have called her since she was born, and I reunited this year with my brother's (her dad) cancer …
A great NFL game was coming on today. Sara asked if I wanted to do elliptical with her. YES! My weekly workout will still happen. With the holidays approaching (and more eating, of course), I thought I better kick it a little harder today. It's always important to eat a balanced meal, 80% healthy, and …
This insane year is only 18 days from reaching its end. The entire world can agree how awful it's been. This has been the year of Murphy's Law. Bad news after bad news. This blog is not a resolution, but more of a realization. As I took my Gracie Mae for a walk today, I …
My friend, Sara, knows how much I love cooking and trying new recipes. She sent me a recipe for beer cheese soup. I looked it over. Seriously....how can you go wrong with beer and cheese! Hello...I love cheese. And beer. I'm like SCJ Kavanaugh, "I like beer." I just went to the store this week …
Are you still coming out of your Thanksgiving coma? I know I have been lazy in my eating. Woke up today with a "get your poopoo together" attitude. I don't necessarily claim to be on a keto diet. I'm a numbers person. I count calories, rather than just not eating something in particular, e.g. carbs. …
