Can it be diet time again so soon? I can’t believe it. How do they come around again so quickly? I just started one last week!!! That’s the thing, starting them is really tough enough. But starting them again and again is enough to kill you. Sure I get it- if you could…
That’s a Laugh!!!
Two interesting comments this weekend got me thinking …. “Today was a great day, “said my mom, “because we laughed a lot!” “I learned this week from my daughter,” said my sis, “that whether you feel happy and then smile, or smile then feel happy, the exact same mechanisms and channels are…
The Blessing of 2 Pieces of Rye with Turkey
Sandwich Generation used to mean kids who liked two slices of bread with something like peanut butter, cream cheese, or tuna inside. As people became more health conscious they went from white bread to whole wheat, to a single slice, to melba toast, to no bread altogether! Just throw any protein into a salad…
Miracle on Sunday
It’s on its way. The weekend that never has enough Sundays. There is so much you want to accomplish on any given Sunday, or in the reverse, so much relaxing you want to catch up on. Yet on this particular Sunday that’s not happening! Because that, all important, event takes precedence. You need…
It’s Awfully Quiet in Here!
Have you ever been that person on the plane? You know, the one uncomfortably squished next to someone you didn’t know. Have you ever walked into an elevator followed by one other person and then had the door shut. And suddenly it was just you and a stranger. Awkward silence? Yes – these are…

Baby You Look Good To Me!
So why is it considered cute on newborns? Slumped over – Cute! Bald- Adorable! Chubby thighs- Delicious! Can we try and be that forgiving to everyone else? Obviously it must be the fact that newborns can make such interesting conversation, or are so considerate, and are so other directed! Is that what makes us willing…
Yay or Nay!!!
Recipes are the hottest thing! I grew up flavoring by “feel”. In other words, if You felt like pouring something in, you did! Really -my mother has this gift for flavoring things and I just copied that. Which I think she got from her mom. My sister, in fact, once tried to watch…
Fly Me To The Moon
I’m looking to buy a magic flying carpet. Anyone have one for sale? I’m glad to be a part of someone’s celebration. We pray for it. We want good things to happen to others. We want to be there. But we really don’t enjoy the Schlepping! People think – “I’m looking for…
