S’mores Please
Grilled out last night and as we finished up our dinner, my daughter suggested we make S’mores. Well there were two problems with that. We didn’t have any marshmallows and the charcoal was almost out. My wife solved the first problem, she went to the store to get supplies. I solved the second, I ventured [...]
Powder Puff Football and Manleaders
They were wearing pink but playing football. I never heard of powder puff football when I was growing up, we called it flag football. I liked flag football in gym class, except for the time I ran straight into a boy name Hugh Tozer and broke my nose! Hugh was a big guy.
I guess when it’s [...]
Garden Is Growing
I hated to pay for it, but I forked over about $3 for a couple tomatoes that we needed for our holiday weekend burgers. I put them on my burger, but they were kind of bland. There wasn’t much I could do though, as my lazy-man’s garden was planted just last month.
My potted deck garden continues [...]
Vacation Deal$
The e-mail in my in box was from the hotel in New York City where we have stayed in the past. They are saying hi and obviously trying to get some business.
Memorial Day weekend is the unofficial start of the summer travel season. Our Memorial Day weekend will be a stay-cation, but summer vacation time [...]
It’s Greek To Me
Moussaka, patistio, souvlaki, just some of the food I got to taste and not pronounce at the St. Barbara’s Annual Greek Festival for Durham and Chapel Hill.
I usually make it a family tradition to cook Sunday dinner for my family, but this was an exception. It was rainy and cool, so instead of grilling, we [...]
Good Luck Hurricane Fish Burgers?
While watching the game last night, I decided to try a frozen salmon burger. I usually opt for beef, but we bought some salmon burger because my daughter enjoys salmon.
These were pre-formed patties from wild caught Alaskan salmon. I put one in the toaster oven during the first period while the Hurricanes trailed 0-1. When it [...]
Hurricanes’ Locker Room
Had a chance to go into the Carolina Hurricanes locker room yesterday before they took off for game 7 in Boston. Terrance our photographer was heading over for the Canes press conference and asked if I wanted to go.
Well of course…..
I grabbed a digital camera and headed over. Things were very somber, but the players [...]
Carolina Hurricane’s Game
“My eardrums were vibrating,” that’s what Carolina Hurricane defensemen Tim Gleason said after Friday night’s home game. I agree, after the game I got home and felt like I had been to a rock concert. My eardrums appeared to be ringing after the game.
The atmosphere in the RBC Center for the Hurricanes game was great. [...]
Tailgate Food
“Tailgating, who tailgates at a hockey game, they must think they are at a NASCAR race, isn’t that all they know about.?” That is one of the more interesting comments I read from Boston people commenting on the fans at the RBC center.
We’ve got the nice weather during parts of the hockey season so why [...]
Here Come The Canes
My car seemed to be controlling me yesterday. I drive by the RBC Center everyday on my way home from work. Yesterday, seemingly on auto pilot, I got off the highway at Edwards Mill Road and headedinto the RBC parking lot. What was I doing? Trying to capture the excitement that the Carolina Hurricanes have [...]
