Musings

Happy Wednesday from frozen Atlanta.  It’s cold and sleeting and just awful.  In my mind, if it’s going to be this miserable is should just snow already!

Anyhoo, here’s a little family pic from last week.  Whit is practicing his groundhog day smile I think.  My poor babies are destined for braces.

I love love love this little piece.  Too often I see and hear people that feel threatened by others.  And often it is women and mothers feeling like that about other women and mothers.

Now, back to the cold.  I’m back to roosting in “the spot” for as long as I can every morning.  And evening, for that matter.

Knock, knock…  These are only my favorite shoes ever and while I’ve had them for eons I don’t believe I’ve ever shared them.  I call them “vintage” Lilly.  Because they are oooold.  I really wish she would come out with more fun flats.

I’m still on my mission to perfect the pancake flip and find the perfect recipe.  This time I went with Todd’s Famous Blueberry Pancakes at the recommendation of a fabulous reader.  They were GOOD… but I love a good buttermilk recipe as well.  And I’m still working on my technique.  More to come, y’all.

Y’all I had a positively dreadful morning this week when my coffee maker started spewing coffee ALL OVER MY KITCHEN.  Like clear across the room.  It was practically a family member and lived a good, long life here.  The worst part of all was not the gigantic mess, but that I was faced with a morning sans coffee, which just totally won’t do…

… and I could have literally kissed my dear neighbor when she came to rescue delivering a fresh hot cup to my door on a freezing cold morning.  My neighbors are the BEST!

I love a good bowl of greek yogurt with fruit and honey for breakfast, but this is my very fave on the go option.  It’s so yummy!!!

I’m still trying out places to “become a regular” per my 40×41 bucket list.  So far I’ve hit Starbucks (good coffee, atmosphere, not sure they would ever really know me) and Waffle House (good cherry cokes and hash browns, but sticky tables).  I’ve said it before, but there is a dire lack of nice little local places in my  neck of the woods.  I did pop into the bagel place but they only take cash so I left.  Can’t be worrying about always having cash on hand.    If anybody that lives by me has any suggestions, send me an email.  I’m all ears!

Speaking of chain restaurants, we tried Pollo Tropical for the first time.  Is it just me or is that place pretty good?!  The plantains were YUM!

I had Honey take down the light in our bedroom so that I can paint it but it has been too miserable to go out!  I can’t wait to share what I’m working on in there :-)

That was a lot of musings about food, looking back.  Probably because I’m starving right now.  Early breakfast before a meeting led to an early lunch which has me wanting dindin like stat.
