Not One of Pittsburgh's Most Finest Moments In History

On September 2, 1974, tragedy and disaster occurred due to mass chaos that derived from two conflicting events. It has been titled, "Bridge Jumpers Downtown" by the news source that first documented the avoidable death of a young man that came from that tragic day in Pittsburgh's history. On that...

A Pleasant Surprise...So Many Tomatoes

I have pretty much ignored my tomato plants this past week due to painting, updating the house, and helping John assemble the new furniture, so this morning I took a look at my five different varieties of tomato plants and was pleasantly surprised by the amount of red tomatoes that were waiting to...

Not all fun and games but the workers gotta keep the melting pot going to keep the steel rolling out for production. The end process results in shiny new cars, large appliances, and a million other necessary doohickies. Customers - Products - Ultra High-Strength Steel - www.ussteel.com Sign in to see full entry.

Even Though It's Hot, I Have Been Craving This Savory Comfort Food

I have always loved a piping hot pot pie filled with carrots, peas, chicken or beef, and potatoes that is topped with that yummy little layer of crust. When I was a kid my mom would stock up on the mini Banquet pot pies. Today you can get them in a variety of flavors like Salisbury steak, sausage &... Sign in to see full entry.

I Believe That We Are Past the Hard Work For Now

We are still planning on adding a half bath in the spring, but for now, we have finished painting the walls and doing the many upgrades that we had on our top five list of things that needed to be tended to ASAP. I can't believe how tired I am, but if my body aches are any indication, painting all... Sign in to see full entry.

Turkey Tuesday

We are all confused this week. We have literally been grabbing whatever we can find in the fridge that is quick so that we can carry on with our home updates. Instead of Taco Tuesday, we had Mexican yesterday, and today we made honey maple turkey sandwiches with pepper jack cheese on crusty Italian... Sign in to see full entry.

I Know That It's Only Monday but Taco Tuesday is Calling My Name

I could eat Mexican food 3 to 4 days a week. I usually make a meal on Monday that involves T-bone or New York steak for John, ribs for me, meatloaf, or fried chicken...also two of John's favorites, but he and I were both craving Mexican food today, so I went shopping for cheese, tortillas, red...

A Crazy Busy Sunday with No Signs of a Break

This weekend's Riverfest and a birthday party along with the intermittent rain has stopped us from tidying up the yard, so that is one agenda that must be dealt with today since the sun has decided to finally make an appearance. We will also be finished painting the livingroom walls along with... Sign in to see full entry.

Speaking of Birthdays, It Appears That They Are Going Around Today

We are headed out to celebrate our grandson's eleventh birthday this afternoon. I am always happy when there is cake involved in any celebration. I can't believe just how fast time has flown by. Aging is ornery in that way. Birthdays add on another year whether we like it or not. Sign in to see full entry.

It's A Hot & Muggy Day in My Borough, but A Really Festive One Too
