Menu Monday ~ Blog Hop

April 4, 2016 By Deanna Piercy 5 Comments

We leave for New Orleans on Thursday so there isn’t any point in making a menu for this week. Our meals will consist of whatever perishables we have on hand and whatever is easy! I don’t want to leave you hanging with no inspiration for your own menu, though, so I’ve asked a few of…

 Autumn on Apple Tree Farm I’m rather late with this but we just returned from our New Orleans trip late Monday night and I’m still recovering. David and I both started with some mild cold symptoms on our way home. So far we’ve kept the crud at bay with regular doses of “The Potion” (I’ll…

Life is still good in New Orleans

Just a quick update: We arrived in New Orleans Friday afternoon and have been going strong ever since. Music, food, and friends…yes, life is still good here. Today we have three music shows to catch – Rhythm and Rain, Debi and the Deacons, and Mark and the Pentones. It’s good to have such talented friends…

A small grocery haul

October 14, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 4 Comments

I did my last grocery haul September 18th, so nearly a month ago. Since then I haven’t shopped at all. David picked up a loaf of bread and some chips at one point but otherwise – nothing. I’m not planning to do my usual monthly shopping trip with Lisa this month because we will be…

Love and the City

July 1, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 2 Comments

I often wonder what I ever did to deserve the life I live. This weekend was simply wonderful in every way. David and I had planned to leave Friday morning around 10 but it was more like 11 before we actually got out of town. We spent the drive reminiscing about the early days of…

March 1, 2013 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

Have you ever had one of those weekends that was almost too fun to talk about rationally? Well, our trip to Austin last weekend was one of those. Train travel, a nice hotel, live music, great friends and a beard competition – what could be better? I think I’ll let the pictures do most of…
