Food for Thoughts

22nd July 2010 | 0 Comments

Yes, I meant to use the plural form in my title.  I am talking about the thoughts that certain foods conjure up.  When I make homemade pimento cheese, I think about my grandmother.  She has made it for years!  We would have it at family gatherings & I never really gave it much thought until [...]


Pulling Weeds

Any time you spend doing one thing, other things are get neglected…right?

Webster’s definition: sac·ri·fice 1 : an act of offering to a deity something precious; 2 : something offered in sacrifice 3 a : destruction or surrender of something for the [...]


Looking Back 11 Years

21st December 2009 | 2 Comments

11 years ago today is a day that I will never forget.  The weather was absolutely wonderful…sunny and 71 degrees.  My children were playing in our fenced in back yard while I watched from the kitchen.  I was on the phone with my cousin Bryant’s wife at that time, Barbara, and we were discussing a flower [...]
