Poor Conrad the Kat
Our beast is always starving and trying to look pitiful. “Feed me! I need my fresh kill or I just can’t carry on…”
The vet has him on a diet, but we are still giving him more than he is supposed to eat.… Continue reading

What Products Are Still Around…
Last week I was reminiscing about the barber shops I went to as a child. My mother read the post and asked me if the old Lucky Tiger Cru-Butch Control Hair Wax I wore in my hair way back when was still sold. I had looked for it a while back and couldn’t find it. But I thought, at her… Continue reading
How Could I Forget?!
I normally don’t pay attention to shoes, but who could miss these?! (Her walk appeared very difficult because of the shoes.) This was out in front of a restaurant in Atlanta.
I asked her if I could take a picture of them, and, thinking it was fun, she graciously agreed.
Notice: there is nothing holding the back of her foot… Continue reading
The Nest Thermostat
Oh, I forgot to tell everyone. We now have a Nest. You know, the cool thermostat that was created by Tony Fadell, who headed up Apple’s iPod division for many years.
As it turned out, our thermostat, a rather sophisticated affair, died back in November. After suffering for a few weeks, waiting for the new model of the Nest to… Continue reading

We would walk barefoot up to Harlie’s Meat Market to buy goodies. My sister and I especially loved the snow cones! I think they were a nickel back in… Continue reading
Best Feta on Earth
Every weekend I have scrambled eggs with feta cheese. The last time I shopped at Mollie Stone‘s grocery store, I bought feta cheese crumbles from Organic Creamery. A genuinely creamy, full-bodied flavor–absolutely heavenly! Without doubt, this is the best feta cheese I’ve ever tasted! It’s not the least expensive feta cheese at the grocery store, but when you cook with… Continue reading
The Bee’s Knees
I hate having dry, cracked lips, and mine seem to dry out faster than most people’s! So, I’m always buying ChapStick. But I like the ChapStick that’s medicated with menthol or some such stuff–you know, the kind that tingles and soothes when you put it on.
Well, I found a new brand that I highly recommend: Burt’s Bees Lip Balm… Continue reading
Gasp!
Everyone who knows me understands that I’m a chocoholic, and I’m not in recovery. I probably eat my body weight in chocolate every year. I guess the time to diet has finally arrived. Sadness and despair abound over the news. If you ask me, candy bars are already insanely expensive for what they are.
