Full Moon and Friday the 13th! Yes, for those superstitious ones, I suppose this could be considered a day of caution. However, I choose to see it as another Friday…which has always been my favorite day of the week because it is the start of the week-end and this particular Friday is the beginning…
Oriental 3 Mushroom Omelet…..can be ready in 5 minutes…10 minutes tops! I was shopping in the market the other day and looking at mushrooms. The Captain and I love almost any kind of mushroom….and I saw the enoki mushroom packages and decided to experiment a bit. We happen to love omelets….Greek, Mexican, American, Spinach,…
Today is Oldest Son’s Birthday… Happy Birthday Son !!!! In the movie “City Slickers” with Billy Crystal, there is a phone call from his Mother to wish him a Happy 39th Birthday…and she places the call at the exact same time she gave birth to her son. Below is…
What a Difference A Day Makes, 24 little hours… There’s a rainbow before me, Skies above can’t be stormy….. or so the song lyrics say. There is a lot of truth in those few phrases! I started this blog in November 2013, when I retired from Aviation. I titled it: “Me and My Captain” Retirement:…
The visit to “The Lady and Sons Restaurant” was a no-brainer in Savannah, and one cannot be in Savannah and not see reminders of Paula Deen’s existence…..as well as reminders of a city full of rich history. We stayed in the RiverFront District, which was a drift back in time to the days of the…
Back Roads Nostalgia….. I really enjoy getting off the main highways and exploring the back roads when I am traveling. Thank goodness, the Captain likes it too! There are so many more things to discover and see….rather than the mundane, familiar signs, touting the next food chain, gas station or hotel… that pop up every…
Cherry Vanilla Chocolate Floats….so yummy! One evening a few weeks ago, the Captain and I had a hankerin’ for a root beer float! So we made a quick trip to the market to get root beer and vanilla ice cream. While there, we started looking at the different ice cream flavors and toppings for ice…
Tijeras Wraps are simple to make with simple ingredients! Most likely you have everything in your pantry…except for the avocado perhaps. It is almost like making a BLT (Bacon, lettuce and tomato) with a couple extra ingredients. I like to use turkey bacon but you can use the bacon of your choice. I like Jenny-O…
Rhubarb Blossom Cheesecake! I have collected so many cook books and recipes over the years and I keep adding to them on each trip the Captain and I go on. (I will have lots of low country recipes to share with you from the many friends we met on our last journey). However, I…
Always Feels Good To Come Back Home…(check out the feature video on the upper right side of my home page and you will see why we love Cape Coral so much!) It is always nice to get away whether it is for a long vacation or a long week-end which is sorta what the Captain…
Fountain of Youth…I promised to update you on my trip to the Fountain of Youth! I am sorry it has taken me a couple days to provide this critical information. I keep staring in the mirror, in anticipation of the lines and wrinkles (and extra weight….well, why not? I believe in Miracles!) magically…
St. Augustine…The Captain…and Me….yes, we visited this old city as we made our way up to Charleston, South Carolina for our wedding anniversary! (June 3rd) Did you know that St. Augustine, Florida is the oldest continuously inhabited city in the United States? Every time I hear the name, I think of an old song about…
