I don’t know about you, but there are a handful of required food items at any given social gathering in my family. Vying for the most important are: queso and deviled eggs. Since tomorrow is a holiday and I haven’t shared any recipes in awhile, I thought now might be a good time–you know, in … Continue reading More Than One Way To Devil An Egg
On this day a long time ago (241 years to be exact) the Second Continental Congress voted to declare independence of the Thirteen Colonies from the Kingdom of Britain.

In an effort to find something humorous to post today honoring our … Continue reading Independence For All Sunday Comics
If you ever find yourself in Hawaii and the opportunity presents itself, I would highly recommend taking a helicopter ride. And I don’t say this lightly.
