Happy Pi Day! I must say it is an odd one to write about this year given it is a Pandemic Pi Year. I am in a tough spot of being sensitive to the issues of today but on the same note I think we all need a break from the serious banter. What has gotten …
Car Cravings and Creating Carbs
I was driving in my minty van the other week and got hungry. It wasn’t the run of the mill hungries but it was the kind of hungry that makes you look at everything and want to stop. I saw a burger place and slowed down and then sped up as I got to the entrance. Nope, that …
Challenges and Chicken Soup
I love a good challenge. Actually, I like the word challenge because it can mean so many different things. For the athletically minded, challenges are usually a way to inspire and motivate people to accomplish bigger and better goals. We’ve all heard people who say my next challenge will be to run a marathon or 5K. Nope, …

A shrimp…just a shrimp.
I am a shrimp. Think about it if you were something…anything…that lived in water…what would you be? Could you be a jellyfish? Something that people look at in awe but maybe not something approachable. Are you a salmon? Always going upstream to keep the circle of life going. Maybe you are a narwhal? The magical badass of the ocean. …
Tuna In For The Next Half Of The Year
Half of the year is almost over!!! Do you sit and think that it went fast? Maybe it went too slow? It could be you are glad that there is only half of 2020 left! It has been a downright crazy year. I have had a really hard time getting focused on writing. I’ve had plenty to say (ask …
Bean There. Done That.
Happy Friday Everyone…or for some of us does it matter what day it is because they are all running together? I will admit that I am pretty good at knowing the days of the week because of my television habits. I’m not sure if that is something to brag about….I know the days of the week….what’s on …
Trivia Pursuit of Happiness
Memorial Day weekend is upon and there is one thing on my mind. Can you guess what it is? If you guessed, grilling…you are wrong! Picnic Food, maybe? Nope, not that. Maybe I’m thinking about fun salads for warmer days? That’s not it either. I’m thinking about soup. It started because my favorite cooking school (The Chopping Block) gave …
Pandemic Noodles and Petty Thoughts
I’ve discovered something amazing about my ability to write blogposts. It isn’t really a gigantic lightbulb moment, it is something little I’ve known for years. It is actually something that would be kind of obvious to most folks but for some reason it has taken me by surprise. I can’t write with disruptions. I can handle a little …
