I am embarrassed to write this true confession. While serving dinner at Mercy Street I said out loud, “I don’t know if I have anything new to blog about our trip to Mercy Street this month.” For shame! Do NOT get me wrong. I love writing about Mercy Street – the faith based ministry that […]
When a burger place is the restaurant of choice for a birthday celebration, you know the burgers are delicious. Number Two Son (With his sweet wife Jenny.) chose Red Robin for his birthday celebration. it has been a family favorite since Number Three Son lived in the nearby apartments.

There was a day when I resisted being called a “senior”. I remember one time at Furr’s Cafeteria where the cashier gave me the “senior discount”, but did not give Ever-Lovin’ the discount. Excuse me! It still riles me. But in the past few years, I have warmed up to the fact of the benefits […]

Their parents come too – but at this tea the children sit at the table, and the adults stand around and graze. Since Ever-Lovin’ and I had visited England this year, we thought an English […]
Be still my heart! Sweet Mother of Pearl! My, oh my, oh my! Linda was gracious and invited the Living Stones to her home for the Annual Christmas party. Her home is beautiful, and (I kid you not!) everywhere you looked there were gorgeous decorations. The big plus is – I have pictures to share. […]
