I run. “Why?” Several reasons. I guess reason #1 is because the Air Force said I have to. “But the Air Force said you only have to run 1 1/2 miles for its fitness test. You’ve run as many as 26.2…why?” I guess my routine running is 3-4 miles at a time…once upon a time … Read more
This is one of my favorite pictures of Timmy. Taken in NY November 2005, so Timmy was about 10 months old. Once upon a time, he had bright blue eyes. They’ve since darkened to more of a hazel color. When they were this bright blue, Timmy’s eyes were somewhat of a puzzle to Dave and … Read more
“Whoopie WHAT???” Whoopie Pie. A Pa Dutch treat I’ve been exposed to mainly from when I started seeing Dave. I probably saw and had them when I was younger, but I didn’t see them in such volumes until I started going to Lancaster County, PA on an annual basis for Dave’s family reunions. So we … Read more
…which means “goodbye” to the grill for a few days. Don’t like to grill when it’s cold, but tonight’s hot dog (for Timmy) and hamburger (for the rest of us) dinner was quick and easy. My latest addiction: the Pioneer Woman blog, added a bew-tee-full pot roast how-to guide this week. I think I’ll be … Read more
The banana pudding was quite delightful, thank you. No, you may not have any…make your own! Just kidding — come on by and you can help me finish ours. I’m tempted to just grab a spoon and snuggle on the couch with the rest of the dish (which is about 3/4 of it!). Also, Dave … Read more
Don’t ask what an Asshat is — it’s something that’s been coined in Model Railroading circles. Dave’s been working on his new Blog, and we thought we could let his ride off a single GMail account but when he started editing “his” profile, mine changed. Oops. As you can see above, I fixed my profile.
I was straightening out my pantry this morning and came across a semi-old box of Nilla Wafers in the back of the snack section. (Yes, I have sections, but that’s for another post). I tasted a couple and they seem okay. Not super-crispy, but definitely not stale. So I thought of how I could use … Read more
So today I decided to open up the house and do some cleaning this afternoon while Timmy napped. One of my tasks was to clean our downstairs 1/2 bathroom. For those who’ve heard my complaints, the toilet in our 1/2 bath has had a strange odor that I’m sure is attributed to having to potty … Read more
I returned from my drilling a couple hours ago. Dave had a wonderful dinner waiting for me of chicken, rice and green beans with a homemade sauce. He melted a slice of provolone cheese on the chicken, it was a white wine sauce garnished with fresh bacon bits. WOW! He’s been doing the cooking for … Read more
Maybe next year…I think I’ll dig out my Giants jersey for tomorrow, though. “GIANTS???? GIANTS???” Well…back in the day, before that other Manning boy came into the NFL, they were fun to watch:
