Do you believe in miracles?

I'm a firm believer in miracles. NO doubt about it. Absolutely NO question!

Let me tell you about my day today... When I woke up this morning, I had no idea how things would go. All I knew was that it's our 36th anniversary & I truly didn't ev...

How to act when you're around
someone in wheelchair.

Have you ever been in a wheelchair? Maybe you just tried one out for fun or maybe you had a broken leg one time. There are a lot of different reasons people use wheelchairs. Some are temporary, but some are permanent.

Merry Christmas!

Sometimes Christmas can be super hard when you live with someone who suffers from depression. Even harder when you have no money. Add those two together & it comes out to an unpredictable, explosive combination... BUT throw in a lot of kind, thoughtful...

Life is so full of ups & downs, isn't it?

One minute, you're going along, just fine, doing your daily routine, then, "Whammo!", something comes along to smack you out of your sleep.

For instance, yesterday, for me...

It was kind of like any other routine Friday.

Get up,...

Homemade Oven Fries

I'm a huge potato lover. I adore potatoes!!...

I like them all sorts of ways.

Since I'm a texture eater, I stay away from

mashed potatoes or scalloped potatoes,

but otherwise, bring me some potatoes!

Baked, boiled, fried, roasted...

Yum!! 

Who doesn't...

Tonight was my 35th class reunion.

It was a casual gathering of classmates,

at our local Buzz Inn Steakhouse.

Nothing fancy.

For weeks (maybe months), I have known about the reunion & figured I'd probably go to it. My hubby & I have gone to most of my reunions. It's always...

Whole, Fire Roasted Cauliflower.

Y'all know I'm a veg-a-holic, right? Not that I like to lie around all day & veg out, although that "could be" true too, but truly, I LOVE vegetables. Now, I don't love ALL of them, but I do love MANY of them & I can eat LOTs of them!......

OK, let's face it. If you know me,

you're shocked that I'm even discussing CDB oil.
That's right! It IS me & we're about to go there.

 I'm like the girl next door.

The girl you'd want to bring
home to meet your parents.

True blue. Straight-laced.
My dad was a minister &...

Super Simple Homemade Gravy

Gravy isn't just for Thanksgiving, right?

I think I've mentioned this before, but I am a SUPER picky eater! My motto is, "If it's gooey or chunky, I ain't eatin' it!"... SOooo... That means I do NOT like gravy. At all. Period!... However, I ma...

Introduction to my frugal ways...

OK, it's no secret. Never has been. I'm extremely frugal... That's the nice way to say it. I'm cheap... Maybe it's in my genes. Genetics are pretty strong. Who knows? All I know is, if I can do it for less, I will.

From time to time, I'l...
