Lots to Do, So Soup & Sammies Are What's for Dinner Today

It will be a mild 77 degrees here in my borough, and after shopping at our local farmer's market this morning, I decided to make a pot of soup that I will serve with a hearty sandwich for today's dinner.

Another Long and Productive Day

I spent the better part of the day chopping, prepping, baking, and freezing meals that will be used for dinners for the next month. I picked our pepper and tomato plants clean, pickling most of the peppers and chopping up the rest for John's favorite sausage, onion, and pepper hoagies. It's that... Sign in to see full entry.

We Have Now Moved to the Shed

This has been a long time coming. Packed to the hilt with everything imaginable from our nearly four decades of marriage, the time arrived this morning for us to tackle the shed and make some sense of all of the memories that have become a real rat's nest due to stockpiling old furniture, costumes,...

No Fun and Games Today

Due to plenty of overtime at the steel mill recently, this past week has been about catching up, spending time together, and enjoying a few new restaurants. That aside, today, the yard is calling our name about some unfinished business that we have been ignoring. This past week, the rain has caused... Sign in to see full entry.

Today I Am Having on A Much Overdue Date Day with My Favorite Guy

We have several wineries in our area that offer good food, fire-roasted pizza baked in 600-degree outdoor pizza ovens, and plenty of wine varieties, but today we are heading out to the one that carries our favorite Granato wine. The Narcisi Winery plays live music on the weekends during the summer,... Sign in to see full entry.

These Guys Found the Perfect Fishing Spot

There is no shortage of these guys who can always be seen hanging out in our lakes, rivers, and ponds, but to see them all with their little butts sticking up in the air at the same time indicates that they have located the perfect fishing spot. Sign in to see full entry.

We Got Really Lucky

Hundreds of reports flooded in early this morning concerning damages and outages that occurred from severe thunderstorms that left nearly 20,000 people without power all around us.
