We’re off on another fun-filled vacation to New Orleans. We’ll be gone through the 28th and I’m sure I will return with lots of great stories to share.

Baking…

September 23, 2007 By Deanna Piercy 4 Comments

My sister-in-law gave me some Amish Friendship Bread starter which I have been mushing and feeding per instructions. Today was baking day. I haven’t made this for years and had forgotten what it was like. It’s pretty good, although quite rich. I must admit it was hard for me to purchase the instant vanilla pudding…

I won!

September 18, 2007 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

I never win anything. That’s my mom’s department. She once won a timeshare which she and my dad have enjoyed for many years now. But me? I don’t win. So imagine my surprise when I went to read one of the blogs I enjoy and discovered that I had won a contest and would be…

Good dinner

September 1, 2007 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

My parents are retiring and today was their last day at work. I invited them over for a little celebratory dinner tonight. I made jambalaya from the recipe I got from a friend in New Orleans, homemade potato salad, layered salad (lettuce, bell pepper, green onion, celery, frozen peas, hard boiled eggs, bacon, cheese, more…

Two years…too long

August 29, 2007 By Deanna Piercy 1 Comment

Is it possible to be homesick for a place where you’ve never lived? I don’t believe in reincarnation but if I did I would swear I once lived in New Orleans. I was strangely captivated by the city on my very first visit and each time I return it feels like going home. And that…

My name is Deanna and I’m 45 years old

August 27, 2007 By Deanna Piercy 1 Comment

Whew! I wrote it and it didn’t kill me. I’m generally not all that freaked out by birthdays but they do tend to make me reflective, sort of like New Year’s Eve. I was awake rather early this morning, lying in bed trying to go back to sleep. That rarely works so I found myself…

Dinner in Dallas

August 23, 2007 By Deanna Piercy 1 Comment

David and I have been invited to a special dinner tomorrow night in Dallas. If I understand correctly, this is being hosted by the company that David buys their company fuel from. I think they are hoping that he will talk the rest of the company into using their services so I suppose you could…

Rock on!

August 21, 2007 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

Yesterday I drove through a local convenience store to get a vanilla Diet Coke. I had my iPod plugged into the car stereo and the song happened to be Black Sabbath’s “Paranoid”. The guy at the window was probably mid-20s and attractive in that *long hair/bad boy* sort of way. He asked for my order…
