Another birthday! Where does the time go?

We are going to have a nice dinner at a good asian restaurant tonight. Other than that, I hope it is just a lazy, pleasant day.

Price of Beef

July 16th, 2010

The price of beef has been inching upwards all year. It is getting very hard to afford the good cuts of beef for regular family dinners. I have had to cut back on steaks for just special occasions.

I think it is time to start exploring different ways to cook fish. If you have any favorite recipes, please share!

Sobe in Plastic?

April 17th, 2010

For an occasional treat, I will enjoy a nice cold Sobe beverage. My  favorite is the Green Tea, but I also like the citrus flavor and recently tried the Nirvana, which has a melon flavor. All these years the Sobe drinks have been in tall glass bottles. But today when I bought a citrus Sobe, the bottle was not glass – it was plastic. What’s up with that?

We have simple plans for this Easter. Eat lots of good food and then feast on candy.

I hope you have a nice Easter with family and friends.

Coffee or Tea?

March 9th, 2010

My grandparents came to America in the early 1900′s. They always had a cup of tea for themselves or their guests. In fact, they always offered, “Would you like a nice cup of tea?” It was always referred to as a nice cup. I can’t think in my head about having tea without thinking of it as a nice cup of tea.

But, when I was 16 I was introduced to coffee and as an adult I have fully embraced coffee. I have a cup of coffee in the morning and am not human nor fit to be around until after I have had my cup of coffee.

Tonight, I am enjoying a nice cup of tea while I watch Letterman and try to get settled in for the night. Every time I make myself a nice cup of tea I think of my grandmother and my granddad and I miss them.
