Diamonds

Several years ago I walked into a classroom in which the in service was held for the school I was teaching at. I sat down and just a few minutes after the speaker started speaking I looked down and noticed  the diamond was missing on a ring that I wore on my pinkie.  The diamond [...]

Easy Peach Cobbler

I heard from a friend the other day who reminded me of this recipe and it fits the bill of being one of those simple but yummy dishes to make.  So of course, I must share it with you.  I don’t remember where I got this but I know it’s old.  It was one of the first [...]

Back to School Shopping

Everywhere you go now you see the sighs that “back to school” is upon us.  And with school comes new school clothes.  So, we made the trek to the mall today to get Julia some new clothes.  She is nothing like me when it comes to shopping.  She hates to shop and grumbles the whole [...]

For My Grandchildren and Great Grandchildren

Ocassionally I talk to someone who will let me know in no uncertain terms that they believe blogging is about the dumbest thing they have ever heard of.  Or that they don’t have time to read blogs or to read my blog and that may very well be true.  But when I decided to do [...]
