I am currently enjoying breakfast in bed at the Skirvin in OKC. It’s a bit difficult to write much of a blog post on my iPhone so my Memory Lane Monday post will have wait until we get home later today. In the meantime, I just wanted to wish you all a Happy Labor Day.
French Friday – Dreaming of Paris
I just celebrated my 48th birthday and decided that I’m going to start planning for a 50th birthday trip to Paris. This is something I’ve always wanted to do and what better time? I pulled out an old calendar, cut out a picture of the Eiffel Tower and slipped it inside the cover…
Guest Post Friday – Sort of
I have a couple of folks planning to do a guest post in the near future but since I don’t have anything for today, I thought I’d share the following video with you: Deep Fried Maraschino Cherry Juice This gives me a great idea. I’m thinking I should soak cherries in brandy, dip them in…
Thursday Three…A Fresh Start
Perhaps it’s all those years of school but September has always felt like a new beginning to me, almost as much as January.

Click here for more menu ideas. Last week was rather hectic and dinner plans changed quite a bit. That means you may see some apparent repeats this week. For instance, I didn’t get around to cooking the broccoli or making coleslaw. Nor did I make refried bean tacos. I just checked the refrigerator and pantry…
Wonderful Weekend…
This weekend couldn’t have been better unless it had been longer. David took off work early on Friday afternoon and as soon as we managed to get animals taken care of and our bags packed, we headed up to Oklahoma City for the weekend I’ve been looking forward to for about two months. David had…
They say it’s my birthday!
I’m so excited! David is whisking me away for the weekend at our favorite Oklahoma City hotel, the Skirvin. A whole weekend relaxing in luxury – sigh… I had my big party last week and my kids took me to Norman yesterday for lunch and a little shopping. Wanna see David’s gift to me? From…
