Posting again already?! I forgot to add a few things to my last post, oops.
Mardi Gras is in less than two weeks, woohoo! I have to remember to keep up with Parade Cam this year at MardiGras.com. For this year's Mardi Gras, I am planning to make King Cake cinnamon rolls and gumbo. Next year, I want to step it up and make a real King Cake, which I' ( Read more... ) -

I forgot to mention in my last post that not 30 minutes after I got back home from Las Vegas, the power went out for over 4 hours! So that was a fun thing to return to as the sun went down. Luckily for all that our trip back was treacherous, at least it wasn't snowing that our elevation. We missed it by a week in Vegas, and while it did continue to ( Read more... ) -

I updated my IG a few times since I created it, including a video and ( Read more... ) -
A look back at the holiday season
'Twas the night before last, and I couldn't go to sleep, so I succumbed to the whim of creating an Instagram. I don't expect to be very active myself, and so far it only has my mushroom pic, a lizard on my back patio rug, and pics of a few lunches and dinners. Really boring. But anyway, if you are are also bored and have an Instagram, here is mine ( Read more... ) -

Thank you so much for your condolences, everyone. I really appreciate it. I am still having my good days and not good days. The holidays were difficult, and we are all still making adjustments without my father. There are so many times I wish I could ask his opinion on things, and I can't. And everyone in the family is looking to me to guide the ( Read more... ) -
Hello, Hi
My rotating header still isn't showing up on DW, but has no problems at LJ, for some reason. So, I temporarily replaced the rotating header on DW with one of the headers in the rotation. In the future, if I remember to, I will switch it out periodically to one of the others ( Read more... )
