We got a little complacent

November 1, 2011 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

Have you been wondering about our Raccoon Witness Relocation Program?  I don’t know if I shared the final count here or just on Facebook, but we relocated 14 raccoons. FOURTEEN! And then they seemed to get the hint that they were not welcome guests. In the past few weeks we haven’t had any in the…

Click here for more menu ideas! I don’t want to say it too loudly but it looks as though this week will be a little less busy than recent weeks. I’m hoping to get some extra baking done, as well as a few more complicated meals than we’ve had lately. Next week is crammed with…

This is how we (rock and) roll

October 28, 2011 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

We won’t be going to Voodoo Fest in New Orleans this year but we did get to see the band David most wanted to see – Soundgarden. Chris, David and I drove to Dallas Wednesday afternoon for the concert that night.  But first we needed nourishment: Burritos at Del Taco (This was a favorite when…

Big doings in a small town…

October 25, 2011 By Deanna Piercy 2 Comments

A lot of folks complain that there’s nothing to do in a small town but they just aren’t looking in the right places. We had a rockin’ Saturday night which began with a fundraiser for the fire department David volunteers with.  Now tell me there’s a better name for a community than Happyland. I just…

Click here for more menu ideas! I guess I need to reassess what I consider to be a busy week as they all seem to be that way these days. Tonight, David is helping load up chairs that were borrowed for a fire department fundraiser this weekend so he will be home late. Tomorrow evening…

The Kitchen Witch

October 20, 2011 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

One of my favorite little shops in the French Quarter of New Orleans is The Kitchen Witch. I’m a sucker for a bookstore, particularly one of those crowded, cozy types. Make it a bookstore specializing in cookbooks and I positively swoon.  I discovered this little gem on our first or second trip back to New…

Click here for more menu ideas! This will be another of those weeks where I won’t be cooking much. David leaves on a business trip early Tuesday morning and won’t return until Friday. He would be home earlier but he got tickets to a World Series game in St. Louis Thursday night. Chris is going…

The vegetarian vs. the carnivore

October 16, 2011 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

I’ve been participating in these Blog Action Day events ever since the first one in 2007. Each year there is a chosen topic on which all participants write. This year, Blog Action Day coincides with World Food Day so the 2011 theme is, naturally, food. The four previous Blog Action posts I’ve done have been on…
