Happyland Music Fest 2013

June 2, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 1 Comment

How do I begin to tell the story of the best party of the year? I’ve decided that Happyland Music Fest (HMF) just has to be experienced in order to understand it. But since that’s not possible for all my readers I’m going to try to at least share a taste of it. I think…

Dee’s Excellent Adventure

May 7, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 4 Comments

I’m not entirely certain what possessed me. It wasn’t boredom – I’m not sure I’ve ever been truly bored in my whole life. I wasn’t upset and running away from anything. I’m alone a lot so it wasn’t the need for space or privacy. Perhaps I needed to do something unexpected…unpredictable. Something that was just…

The hippie and the pirate

David finally got his personalized license plate. I think this pretty much sums us up.

Plastic, Wikipedia and Field Trips

April 5, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 5 Comments

I hardly know where to begin. My daughter, Lisa, and I took a little trip to Tulsa Tuesday and Wednesday. Beth Terry, author of “Plastic Free – How I Kicked the Plastic Habit and How You Can Too”, was speaking at the University of Tulsa and she had asked Lisa to speak with her. What…

Weekend Catch-up

March 25, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 4 Comments

The past three days have been a whirlwind of sorts. Friday was an absolute roller coaster of emotions. David and I spent the first few hours of the day providing emotional support for a couple of friends. It’s not my story to tell but I will say I was reminded of how difficult it is…

Some things never change

January 18, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 2 Comments

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…

31 Days of Autumn Nesting: Day 17 – Tea Time

October 20, 2012 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

It should come as no surprise, considering the name of this blog, that I adore tea. My grandma started me on it as an infant (I’m not kidding) and I’ve loved it ever since. I like iced tea, both sweet and unsweet. And I especially love a properly made cup of hot tea. Earl Grey,…

Ten things I’ve learned from New Orleans

August 31, 2012 By Deanna Piercy 2 Comments

I’ve been praying for those affected by Hurricane Isaac, especially those who are reliving the emotional trauma left over from Katrina. I’m sure it brings back a lot of terrible memories. However, when I first started thinking about my annual Katrina anniversary post a couple of weeks ago, I decided I was going to focus…

Tea With Dee…(that’s me!)

July 28, 2012 By Deanna Piercy 4 Comments

A few weeks ago, Tori of Torizworld, blogged about the annual Mad Tea Party at A Fanciful Twist. I took a look at some of the past parties and they were absolutely delightful. I would have loved to join in this year but we are headed to Oklahoma City in just a bit for the…
