July Grocery Haul

July 18, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 1 Comment

I missed my usual monthly shopping trip with my daughter this month while I was in California. I flew into OKC Sunday night and David, who had been on a business trip also arrived that day. It was late so we spent the night at our home-away-from-home, the Skirvin Hotel, and went home Monday. Before…

California Trip Update

I really appreciate all the prayers and positive thoughts offered up on behalf of my uncle. While his condition remains serious and the ultimate prognosis is poor, I’m happy to report that he is doing much better now than he was when I saw him upon arrival in California a week and a half ago. …

Click here or here for more menu ideas! I didn’t get home until last night so that’s why this week’s menu is a day late. I’ve got a lot of catching up to do this week but at least I know what we’ll be eating! Tuesday: chicken with bruschetta topping baked sweet potato green beans…

I’m still in California trying to be as helpful and supportive as I can. I wish I could wave my magic wand and make everything all better but I can’t. I can, however, help prepare meals, clean up and prep at least part of the massive quantities of peaches ripening on my aunt’s peach tree….

This is my view this morning as I sip a cup of Earl Grey. For so many years this has been one of my happy places. I wish I were here under different circumstances but we do what we need to do for the people we love. Please continue to keep my uncle (and those…

California Bound

I’m on an unplanned journey to California. A very dear uncle is seriously ill and my parents decided to head to California to see him. They don’t like to fly and I was concerned about them driving all that way so I packed my bags last night and we headed out this morning. This picture…
