In honor of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day I participated in a local service project. As I’ve mentioned before, I serve on our city’s Multiculturalism Committee and this was our first event. We partnered with the university’s Pi Sigma Alpha Political Science Honor Society and the Ada Sunrise Rotary Club to host a city-wide trash…

Click here or here for more menu ideas! Monday:Today I am participating in an event sponsored by our city’s Multicultural Committee in honor of MLK day.

Some things never change
I’m in the process of writing a new issue of my “Tea With Dee” newsletter. I started it back in February of 2005 but last year I pretty much let it go, thinking that surely everyone got enough of what I had to say via my blogs, Facebook, Twitter, etc. However, before I shut it…
Another “Slow Month” – January 2013

Farewell, Christmas…
Just a little tour of our house decorated for Christmas: It’s funny what you see when you photograph or video tape your house. It probably looks a little cluttered to some of you. Part of that will be gone when I put away the decorations but the truth is that, despite the fact I like…
Menu Monday ~ January 7, 2013
Click here or here for more menu ideas! This month I’ll be planning meals around what we have stuffed in our pantry and freezer. I don’t think I could get one more thing in our deep freeze so it’s time to start eating from its contents! I only plan to purchase fresh dairy and produce…
Starting the New Year off right
We had a most wonderful time ringing in the New Year in our favorite city with some of our favorite people. In fact, we had such a good time that I didn’t even take very many photos. Our flight left the OKC airport at about 8 a.m. Sunday morning. We are *not* morning people so…
