The Monday after our Mountain Trip we hit another spot on my son’s Food List. This was Hooter’s which recently opened up a Restaurant in our locale. Again, Monti had made sure to be on their mailing list and had Birthday Coupons for Kratae and himself. We indulged in 3 different kinds of Chicken Wings with Bleu […]
On Thursday we drove to South Lake Tahoe and had dinner at Taco Bell – another place on Monti and Quinn’s list. I think after this dinner, they have had their fill of Taco Bell and don’t necessarily want to go back again. In the morning we drove to the North Shore and took some […]

The trick is to just add new self-improvement items on a daily, weekly or monthly basis. One at a time would be much easier to do. All […]
December is National Fruit Cake Month and I am going to start if off by soaking my fruit for our Annual Fruitcake, something my husband loves. All the years of my Childhood and into Adulthood, my Mother made Fruitcakes every single year. She made enough so that my Father could take some to his Co-Workers […]
Thanksgiving in the United States is a family holiday that is usually celebrated with a huge Turkey Dinner. Although Thanksgiving Celebrations occurred sporadically since the Pilgrims first Thanksgiving, it wasn’t until President Abraham Lincoln declared the last Thursday in November to be the official National Holiday. In 1939 President Franklin Delano Roosevelt declared the fourth Thursday in […]
