Flashback Friday


I know that this is a little late for Halloween, but I think it is a very cute picture. This is a shot of my older sister, Marti at 3 years and me at 6 months.

Wasn't I a cute kid!!

Oh and just a warning to my family... I have old pictures that may just find their way out here... I'll try not to be too embarrassing!!

Happy Foods

As you may know, I have the privilege of currently living with a professional chef and am eating pretty well...both tasty and healthy. There have been numerous times when I've literally danced in my seat as I'm eating because the food is so yummy...and yes, I never thought I dance in my seat over healthy foods, it is normally over chocolate cake and ice cream or cheesecake...

As I was discussing what foods were making me happy I realized that a number of them started with "P":
  • Potatoes, mashed, scalloped, soup
  • Pudding (not necessarily made by The King, but still tasty and eaten often)
  • Pork (as in bacon)
  • Pasta (as in yummy spaghetti with turkey bolognaise sauce)
  • Popcorn
  • Peanut-butter cookies
  • Pad Thai (though this last batch was a little too spicy for me...and not cooked with love by the King)
  • Pomegranate Martini
  • Prosseco (and yeah, we're getting a little off mark)
Some other non-P foods that have made me do the food dance:
  • Chef Salad (made with love by The King along with homemade Parsley Ranch dressing)
  • Taco Salad
  • Brown rice with thyme
  • Risotto
Okay, so in general, I pretty much dance whenever I'm served yummy (healthy) food that has been made with care. Look out Thanksgiving, there's no telling what sort of dancing may occur...

Flashback Friday


I don't actually have flashback pictures to speak of, however, for me these are a little bit of a flashback. These are some pictures that I took a couple of weeks ago when I went down to College Station for an A&M game with The Queen. That trip was a bit of a trip down memory lane as well as a horrific slap in the face as to how old I've gotten and how, surprisingly, time didn't stand still after I graduated.

We had really great seats. I want to thank The Queen and her Dad for inviting me. It was a really great weekend for me.
