Baby Update…

Hi everyone.  I know it’s been awhile since I’ve written a post but I guess I’ve been busy.  I think Steve does a pretty good job of covering for me!!
How about an update on the baby who is on the way?  Well, little “Jabari” is doing just fine.  I’m 33 weeks pregnant.  (That’s out of […]

Another change to top 25 pop songs of the 1980s

I totally forgot about the song Take on Me by the band A-ha.  I dropped, She blinded me with science by Thomas Dolby.  Take on Me was a great song, and probably one of the best videos ever made.  So go check out my top 25 pop songs again.

Mr. Beer brewing kit

For Christmas, I received a Mr. Beer home brewing kit. 

 I have always wanted to try my hand at home brewing.  Last night I made my first batch.  The process of making beer is much more involved than I expected.  The Mr. Beer kit helps by doing a lot of the time consuming work for you, […]

Frank Capra Jr.

Frank Capra Jr. passed away this week.  I met him years ago.  Way back when I was in high school, I dated his niece Monica Capra for a couple of years.  I can honestly say he was a very nice man.  I only met him a couple of times, but he was very polite and […]

How to make a Christmas Tree topper

An article with the title “Garden of Eden” catches my interest.  I start to read the article, and find out it is about a place in the Foja Mountains of Indonesia.  Supposedly one of the last places on earth untouched by humans.  Now, see if you can guess the problem with what the article states.  […]

Pizza bagels

First, cut the bagel in half.  Then lightly toast the two halves.  Take some pizza sauce and liberally apply to the bagel halves, cover with a cheese of your choice, then toast the bagels again until the cheese melts.  This is a great late night snack.  I think it is better if you use an […]

New restaurant Papa Bella’s

Steph and I took James Christmas shopping today.  We went to Kohl’s department store and then to the mall.  It was fun and took several hours.  When we came home, it was almost dinner time, and we didn’t feel like cooking.  Steph had a coupon for a new restaurant that just opened across the street.  […]

Bartles & Jaymes wine coolers

Steph had to host a Bunco party last week, so she had to provide the snacks and drinks.  She provided wine and wine coolers.  There were a couple of wine coolers left over after the party.  They both were made by Bartles & Jaymes.  One was strawberry daiquiri flavored, and the other was margarita.  I […]

Penn State proves mom was right!

So, to revisit an earlier post that I wrote about my mom’s remedies for sickness when I was a child.  Honey and a little whiskey.  Well, in yesterday’s newspaper, the Wilmington Star News, a subsidiary of the New York Times, there was an article about using honey to help children’s sickness.(over the age on one).  […]
