Last Night's Storm Wasn't Playing and This Morning I Did Damage Control

What started out as a hot, uneventful day quickly turned into a chilly and dangerous evening. Tornado warnings flashed across the television screen and not long after that the sky went from blue to dark gray within minutes. The wind began howling, thunder started rumbling, and then the biggest... Sign in to see full entry.

I Woke Up to These Two Fatties Joining the Morning Buffet in My Yard

Spring is always a treat in my yard. This is the time of year when the pregnant bunnies join the birds and squirrels at the feeders. Before I know it, there will be baby bunnies running around. 🐰🐰🐰 Sign in to see full entry.

Heading Out to Take a Walk This Afternoon Where the Buffalo Roam

It is such a gorgeous sunny day, just perfect for a walk through the South Park Buffalo Preserve, where hundreds of buffalo and bison roam freely. Peacocks and several species of domesticated birds also live in the preserves. South Park is home to many baby buffalo and bison, including Elu and baby... Sign in to see full entry.

Spring Clean Out Makes for A Strange Dinner

We purchased a new French-door refrigerator a few months ago with a much larger interior than our previous fridge. Because of this, I tend to have more leftovers than two people need in a week. Groceries aren't cheap, so today, I plan to have a refrigerator clean-out that will allow me to bleach the... Sign in to see full entry.

Even Though It Will Be a Nice 76 Degrees Today, I Will Be Making Soup

Today, I am making hearty Mediterranean green lentil soup with carrots, onions, celery, garlic, tomatoes, and fresh baby spinach. I located the recipe on a Greek food recipe site. Today isn't ideal for making soup, but I have been craving it for the past week, so this morning I got my vegetables... Sign in to see full entry.

Online Shopping Can Be An Uncertain and Scary Ordeal

I am so thankful that I have a credit card that was approved by my bank and attached to my account. They are strict when it comes to online shopping sites, especially when the orders are coming from overseas. This morning, I attempted to order some summer dresses from an ad that came across my...

It's A Gloomy and Wet Day So I Have My Slow Cooker Blipping Away

We are sitting smack dab in the middle of high waters again due to a storm pushing its way through from the west. The flood warnings began yesterday afternoon once it began raining non-stop. It is a chilly 59 degrees today, so I broke out the crockpot earlier this morning, and it is now slowly... Sign in to see full entry.

One Small Pennsylvania Town Was Crowned the #1 Town in the U.S.

Unsurprisingly, Ohiopyle was crowned with the No. 1 spot on USA Today's list for best small towns in the Northeast. It is one of my favorite summer destinations in the state. The quaint little town has been referred to as Nature's Playground, attracting outdoor enthusiasts throughout all four... Sign in to see full entry.

A Rare Beauty

She is the one and only of her kind that showed up in my yard. I just love her color. Even the little bee that I found inside of her petal appears to love this flower. 🐝 Sign in to see full entry.

I Woke Up This Morning Feeling Like I Got Ran Over By A Dump Truck

Yesterday was a hardcore day in the yard with weeding the flowerbeds, mowing the grass, and trimming the hedges and the flowerbed borders. Some of our grass was ankle-deep due to all of the rain from the past few weeks. The fruits of all that labor reared its ugly head in the form of sore muscles... Sign in to see full entry.
