Growing up, I was surrounded by phenomenal cooks. My grandmother and my mother can take the most unusual ingredients and create a dish that takes your taste buds on a journey. There are few things either of them can’t cook. My mom has a stock-pile of recipes that she makes on a regular rotation to [...]  Two years before The Husband and I left North Carolina I met a woman who has become a great friend. Some of my favorite memories of North Carolina are of our weekly Tuesday night dinner dates to cook a nice meal and share a bottle (or two) of wine while we, along with our husbands watched American [...]
When I was a child I was terrified of thunderstorms. The first sight of rain would prompt me to search the house frantically until I found The Brother then proceed to cry and shake with worry. The Brother and I would cower in his bedroom under the blanket shivering with fear. For the past week, The Husband and I have had non-stop company. We started spring break with The Husband’s sister flying in from DC to stay with us. The sister-in-law is graduating in December and this was most likely the last break she’ll spend with us. The Air Force has great plans for her as [...] **not gluten free** Today is officially the first day of spring. Although spring is not my favorite season of the year (I tend to be biased… I love autumn), spring brings hope of renewal, new life, and fresh beginnings. The sun sets later and later, stretching the days into long fun-filled moments. Spring makes me stop [...] My emotions are all over the place these days. I long for the day Gomer Pyle makes his way home. My heart literally hurts when I think about going to bed without him. Tears spring to my eyes when I think about the last kiss I smacked on his little forehead. Does he know I [...] *An email I got from my dad this morning. God doesn’t make them better than him. Cat, my little girl. I will always think of you as my little girl, even though I know how nebulous that statement is. Your mother and I knew that when God blessed us with you, that you were only on [...] Too many times in life, something awful happens and we loose our bearings. Yesterday, I searched for 16 hours for my little love to no avail. I’ve cried out to God to please bring my boy back to me. The owner/pet relationship is very complex. No one knows how special my little love is to [...] I’ve lost my little love, Gomer. Please pray for me. Please pray that God brings him home to me. Please. He’s my little boy. My life has been turned upside down with a thousand things going on these days. Fortunately, my military man is home with me this year. I used to love the song, “I’ll Be Home for Christmas” until I spent my first Christmas away from my love. Today, the song brings me to tears and [...] |
