Korean Mamas – So Funny!

I just got back from a visit with a dear friend who lost her mom 4 years ago. You know my philosophy by now. It is okay to be sad but You Might As Well Laugh. (Did you see what I did there?) Thinking about her mother made me think about my mother. While IContinue reading “Korean Mamas – So Funny!”

Is Age Relative?

Albert Einstein, one of the sexiest intellects in history, determined in 1905 that the laws of physics are the same for all non-accelerating observers, and that the speed of light in a vacuum was independent of motion of all observers. This was the theory of special relativity. You know, e=mc²? Okay, okay so it isContinue reading “Is Age Relative?”

My Husband Talks In His Sleep

I know talking in your sleep is not a brand new phenomenon – many people do it. My husband is an expert champion at it though. LOL Sometimes it is just one word. “Clara!” That was a fun one. You know how early in your marriage you are likely to get more jealous? I wantedContinue reading “My Husband Talks In His Sleep”

Mama Always Lied About Her Age

My Mama was “something else” as they say in the South. There is not enough space in this blog to tell you her whole story, but here is a short quip. Mama was very attractive and she knew it because EVERYONE told her so. I guess you could say she was vain. She ALWAYS liedContinue reading “Mama Always Lied About Her Age”

Making Cards

I create handmade cards. I don’t make the paper itself but I craft cards out of paper. I started doing this on a lark because one of my friend’s friends sold Stampin’ Up products. It is yet another one of those at home businesses. The difference is most of the demonstrators do it just toContinue reading “Making Cards”

My Love Affair With Pork belly

I’m a pretty healthy eater but if there is anything I have a weakness for, it’s pork belly. Pork belly is a boneless cut of fatty meat from the belly area of a pig (it is not the stomach). I guess my love affair began in South Korea. Korean Barbecue restaurants are everywhere in KoreaContinue reading “My Love Affair With Pork belly”

Snow Kidding!

Oh how my little suburbanite offspring longs for snow. Last year we got one tiny sleet storm and of course I refused to let them play in that mess! It was wet and cold and nasty. I told them when a real snow came they could play outside. They never got another opportunity. While IContinue reading “Snow Kidding!”

The Cake Slap

Maybe I just needed a funny story today because of yesterday’s crazy political news. Maybe it is because my friend Aga made us a delicious casserole and brownies last night. Whatever the reason, I remembered a funny story that I had to relate. Everyone has different traditions with birthday cakes. Some families say the birthdayContinue reading “The Cake Slap”

Why Do Adolescents Lie?

I was a teenager 40 years ago. I wholly admit I do not remember every detail of that tumultuous stage in my life. I was not adventurous so I had zero parties when the parents were away, I never smoked cigarettes or marijuana, I never sneaked alcohol, I never snuck out of the house andContinue reading “Why Do Adolescents Lie?”
