This is my spaz-y dog. He loooves the outside. He stalks, barks, pesks, and chases wildlife. Spent another day in the “new city” looking at this and that and am really ready for a few days downtime. Hopefully rain will stay away and I can continue [...]

Last 4th of July we spent it at the Ritz Carlton in Chicago. What started as a seemingly great idea, oh so wasn’t. It was the perfect storm coming together. One of our dogs hates the 4th with all the loud noises, and the Ritz has really [...]

It’s fun to get away, but it’s good to be back.

This is my little guy. He’s a good boy, but he LOVES his frizbee. Heading off the school again to look for a place to live. No, I’m not the most indecisive person every, but I’m sure close. I just want to find just the right place. I’m still deciding between [...]

So, a show of hands, who bakes their own birthday cakes? Well, I do. Not only do I enjoy cooking, but I also think I can make a scratch cake better than most of our local bakeries. That’s not bragging, that’s living in an area [...]

This is my dog. He’s my second dog and it’s funny how even though they never met one another, they have similarities. Both hated riding in the car, but always wanted to go along. Both barked and protected the house, but I think dog #1Jake did it out of bravado, and [...]

I think I linked this a while ago, but it’s so cute I wanted to again. This is me and my cousin in Colorado a few years ago in one of those old time-y photo places. I’ve got several of these of me through the years, and maybe you’ll see more, [...]

There are times in life when you don’t feel like you fit in. Sometimes when, you’re the square peg trying to jam into the round hole. Or, sometimes you’re a woodpecker and, boy, does that sugar water sound good. Yes, you’re a little larger than a hummingbird, but [...]

radish, originally uploaded by lclea.
This is why I love the farmer’s market. Our local supermarkets just don’t carry things like this; long, beautiful two-toned radishes. They were crunchy and not too bitey. I don’t like a really bitey radish. Have you ever sautéed a radish? Try slicing them into round [...]
