Is it Baseball Season Yet?

Silliness in the Subway!

Just coming back from a Toastmasters meeting and decided to get silly with pictures in the subway.

The Death of a Longtime Companion

I lost a friend of 7years earlier this week.  He fought a good fight but alas his motor just didn't keep running.  

Grandparents

While creating Reader's Guides for Charlie and the Chocolate Factory I was thinking about the grandparents, especially the grandmothers, in the story.  They listen to the newspaper articles about Violet, Mike, Augustus and Veruca and are consistently disgusted with the ways that these children are raised and act.  It made me smile and reminded me of both of my grandmothers when they'd see a child misbehaving in church, or in the supermarket, or even on TV.  Just made me smile.

Yummy... Costco for dinner?

Going to Costco for dinner because they have delicious hot dogs and bbq sandwiches reminds me of going to Sam's Club with Grandma Davis for "lunch" as we'd walk around and fill up on all the samples.  :-)

New Running Shoes

I got me some new running shoes as the spring approaches.  I'll start running more as the ice melts.  :-)

The Toastmasters Meeting Today

Today I was the Toastmaster at our Saturday meeting.  My topic of choice was "Candy".  It was a great meeting as we're trying to boost membership and involvement and we had a lot of visitors today.  Plus it snowed on the way to the meeting.

Funny Faces at Work

Euree's Friend's Birthday

We went for fried chicken and beer, then on to a Cuban bar for some fun to celebrate her friend's birthday!

Homemade Pasta

The other day I tried my hand at homemade pasta.  It was delicious!

A Sunday Early Afternoon at a Cafe Window

Euree and I played car brand bingo in a cafe window on a Sunday morning.  Having Aston Martin and Bentley in two of my squares made it difficult to get a blackout.
