Stealing My Seat!

A little fun animal story today…..
Last night after dinner, my wife had to run to the store and my daughter was studying.  So I grabbed the notebook computer to surf the web.  Since my wife and daughter were busy, I was excited because I could curl up on the couch while surfing.   See, the couch [...]


Warning On Specials At Grocery Stores

I usually add blueberries, my daughter likes hers with chocolate chips in the batter.  Pancakes can be a very tasty way to start your day.  I have a good homemade recipe for pancakes, but lately my family seems to like Aunt Jemima to come over.  It’s quick and easy add the water stir and cook. 
While perusing [...]


Don’t Trust Your DVR

I figured it in the first period of yesterday’s Olympic hockey game between the United States and Switzerland.  You see, I started watching the game around 6pm after taking my usual afternoon nap.   The game started at 3pm, so I went to my DVR around 2:30pm and selected NBC’s Olympic hockey coverage for the afternoon.  Hit [...]


Snow Is Going, Going….Gone

It’s been three weeks since our January snow, and just one week from our February smaller snow.  Do you still have snow around?  It still exists in areas where people have plowed it into big mounds or built snowmen.   This picture is from a shaded yard and the snowmen mainly came from last weekend’s snow.

The [...]


A Zamboni Off The Ice

A Zamboni resurfaces ice rinks around the world.  It makes the ice fresh and clean after being used by skaters.   I have seen them numerous times, but only on the ice. 
Last week while shopping at Costco, I got there at the opening after our recent snow, I saw a “Zamboni” in their store.  Not for [...]


Snow and More Snow

My mom in Chicago said she got 12″ of snow, and she isn’t going anywhere.  Wilmington, Delaware, and Washington, DC have now set records for the snowiest season on record.  A lot of folks are wondering what is going on?!
Welcome to a return toward the norm.  No doubt the last couple of decades have been [...]


Snow Disappears…

I found the flag and a bit of snow, all that was left of the snow fort that I built last week.  I still see signs of snow in shady spots and in the piles that plows pushed up.  But for the most part, pictures and memories are all that is left from our 5 [...]


Super Bowl Commercials & Food

I like milk, but I never heard of someone liking it so much that they are called a “milk-a-holic”.   Well I learned what a milkaholic might be like by seeing the E-trade baby talking commercial, where the baby boy had a baby girl over for play, I guess.  That was one of my favorite commercials [...]


One Year Old Snow

We sledded down the backyard, the streets never got covered.  Made a few snowballs and snow angels, that was what happened one year ago when we had a couple inches of snow in the Triangle.
Wanting to make the snow “last”, I decided to save some in the freezer.  Well after 365 days it is time [...]


Exploding Oatmeal

On a cold winter day nothing is better than hot cereal for breakfast.  So today I brought in to work some oatmeal for breakfast.  I like oatmeal, but I enjoy the taste and texture of uncooked oatmeal more.  I usually pour a 1/2 cup of old fashioned oats and then pour some frosted flakes over the [...]
