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 …
Gindo’s Spice Of Life Review
The spice of life. What are you doing right now to “spice” up YOUR life? (And let’s keep it classy.) Are you wearing different clothes that have been sitting in your closet? Do you find yourself reading a newly discovered genre of books? Or maybe you’ve discovered a new television show to binge watch? As a blogger, it …
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 …
Small Potatoes
Small Potatoes. Do you ever feel like your life is small potatoes compared to the bigger picture? I’ve been trying to write a post for the past couple of weeks and all I do is delete what I type because I feel like it is such a tiny view in world that seems so large. My first …
The Birthday Blog: The Road to 50
Like it or not, I turned 50 yesterday. I love a good milestone birthday to make you take a look at yourself. With the passage of time, I’m sure everyone looks at the road markers of their life. Where have they gone? Where should they be? Who has passed them on the way? What has limited someone’s dreams? …
Chili Soup Because the Only Time Chili is a Soup is During a Pandemic
I’ve decided since the world has gone all inside out that I needed to find a food topic that I have always felt strongly about and take a whole new look at it. We are all learning to adjust to new normal and adapting to crazy situations that we need to learn how to open our …
Muffuletta Deviled Eggs
With everything going on in the world today, it is kind of nice to have things that are part of your “old” normal routine. Whether you have a certain day you wash the sheets or a soup you eat every Monday, it gives you a sense of control over a life that is currently uncontrollable. I’ve …
