My aunt and uncle from California were here in Oklahoma visiting for a few days and we took a little trip to Turner Falls. Yes, the same place where I had my excellent adventure last week. It was another gorgeous day and we all enjoyed the pretty views. Left to right: Dwain (my dad), Mary (my…
May Grocery Haul
Lisa and I did our May grocery shopping last week. I was exhausted when I got home which may account for the fact that I forgot to turn the phone sideways to film my grocery haul. Or at least that’s what I’m going to blame it on. Before we started shopping we dropped off our…
A perfect day

The Gifts of Friendship
Sometimes I get discouraged by the actions of certain folks but then I’m reminded of the many wonderful friends I have and how much they care about and appreciate me. I think the good Lord knew I needed a few of those reminders recently and I’ve been overwhelmed by the love and generosity of friends…

Shrimp étouffée
I think I’m missing Louisiana food. Tonight I’ve got smothered pork chops cooking to serve over rice, cabbage cooked with bacon and onions, and a squash casserole.
