It was a holiday celebration at my parent's house but it wasn't any house I've seen before. It had a breakfast bar with stools and a dining area. A lot of people were around; children, brother, adults, teenagers, and ... Alton Brown. Yes, I said it. Mr. Brown was a guest and he seemed well … Continue reading Alton Brown Guest Star

Hey bud, check out the thermal lunch bag my office mate got for me for Christmas. I only mentioned the blog with a chuckle and smile back when you gave me that nickname. Haha!
2015 – Ready…. GO!
Well February has arrived and I'm happy to note 5 pounds have come off and I have just started going back to the gym.

GO!
Highs and Lows
January has brought a lot of high points and some disappointing lows. High: We have been pet sitting a ferret the past week and it's been so much fun. He's the sweetest, best tempered ferret I've ever seen. Yes, he gets into things and he poops on our floor but can't blame him. He's in … Continue reading Highs and Lows

He could no longer … Continue reading Opera and Steel

Death By Sponsor
Preparing for a long journey took all of two minutes for me. I already knew the book I wanted to read on the way there and the book I wanted to read on the way home. Two hour +/- bus ride to the airport, 12 hour +/- flight and I should have "Divergent" the first … Continue reading Death By Sponsor
