It's Not a Pretty Sight...The Grim Reality of Homelessness

Pittsburgh is a gorgeous city, but hiding behind the landscape of the many tall buildings and under bridges is a most complex homeless problem that escalated once Pittsburgh became the new home to thousands of immigrants who arrived from Ukraine, Africa, Mexico, and the Middle East, along with a few...

A Fun Day is My Goal for the Day

Sundays for me always make me smile. My favorite Food Network shows air all morning and then we normally go for a Sunday drive, followed by coming home to a dinner that includes our favorite meals. By meals, I mean that I usually turn to seafood and John looks for anything but crustaceans on his... Sign in to see full entry.

Today is a Total Food Day All Day Long Followed by Scottish Roots and Cheer

Cravings for turkey come with the territory once November hits, but as much as I enjoy turkey, my love of seafood supersedes my desire for a yearly turkey fix. Today, all of my favorite Food Network programs have featured turkey and side dishes that are the normal cast of characters found on the... Sign in to see full entry.

We Found Last Night to Be a Bit Strange, But We Attended Anyway

John and I have never been one to put the Christmas tree up until the middle of December, mainly due to putting the November Thanksgiving holiday first and then gearing up for the next month's festivities, which usually include plenty of meal planning, decorating, and a list for giving and receiving...

One of My Favorite Childhood Characters Popped in For a Visit

Even though he is wreaking havoc on my wooden bird feeder and raised beds, it is a joy to see such a unique creature visiting my yard. This woodpecker takes me back to my Looneytune cartoon days when Woody Woodpecker was forever pecking his way out of trouble and then antagonizing everyone with his... Sign in to see full entry.

We Decided to Go with One of my Favorite Meals Today for Dinner

I'm not sure why, but I always crave breakfast foods for my big meal of the day.

I still enjoy a hearty breakfast that... Sign in to see full entry.

I Used to Be Famous

Not everyone can say that, but for a few, it is a dream come true. I never really get the chance to sit down and watch a full-length movie, but John coerced me into sitting down and watching a heartwarming movie that embraces overcoming disabilities. I Used to Be Famous is nothing short of an... Sign in to see full entry.
