SIMMERED FOR FLAVOR
Thanks for sticking with me through this long, hot summer. In June, I underwent a hip replacement, which put me out of commission for a while. I’m doing well and back on track with the publication of my book, RELATIVE CONSEQUENCES. Now that I’m ambulatory, as they say, I’m actually cooking again. My poor husbandContinue reading “SIMMERED FOR FLAVOR”
My Apologies to Barbra!
April 14, 2021 How is everyone? I hope you are well and staying safe. Trying to get through 2020 has been a challenge for everyone. I’m hopeful that as we keep moving through 2021, one month at a time, the year will improve. We (Mike and I) are in the process of putting our houseContinue reading “My Apologies to Barbra!”
Remotely Controlled (Re-post)
Since I first posted this, my sweet Buzz (pictured on the left) has gone to kitty heaven. He was such a handsome boy. Now, I need to apologize for my 3 year absence.

Happy Strong Women’s Day
Now I could have said Mother’s Day, but just couldn’t bring myself to do it. I’m been overwhelmed with the need to talk about some of the strong women I know. Sure, there have been famous ones blogged about by me and other authors like political figures, astronauts, doctors, presidential wives, even a celebrity or two,Continue reading “Happy Strong Women’s Day”
Remotely Controlled
CONTROL—everybody wants it. My husband, God love him, is a little bit of a control freak (she said nicely and with love), but in a good-hearted way. Me, I might be borderline, but hey, I know what I want and I usually want it right away. 🙂 My sweet dog, Bella, is even on thatContinue reading “Remotely Controlled”
Talkin’ Mothers & Welcome, Erin Bartels
With Mother’s Day approaching, we spotlight our mothers whether they are still living or have passed on, and remember fondly how these women have impacted our lives. My mother who was a unique yet troubled woman, taught me life lessons I will never forget. I, being a mother myself, can only hope that I’ve been able toContinue reading “Talkin’ Mothers & Welcome, Erin Bartels”
March Madness
March is National Women’s History Month. Did you know that out of the 13 honorees in 2017 under the Theme of Trailblazing Women in Labor and Business, 5 of these women are from the southern states of North Carolina, Alabama, Virginia and Mississippi? Now these are some Strong Southern Women. When I think of March, I think of basketball – TheContinue reading “March Madness”
Tearing off the Tag
I was born in Savannah, Georgia. You just don’t get much more southern than that, right? As a child, I was expected to act a certain way. It was like I came out with one of tag like the one attached to a pillow (you know that says you’ll be prosecuted under the law if you yank itContinue reading “Tearing off the Tag”

Happy New Year Y’all!!! I know I’m a little late. But the sentiment is still there right? If you’re like me, you will reflect on the past year—remember the good times and flinch or frown at the bad. Some things we had no control of, others we most certainly did. By going over what wasn’t soContinue reading “Positive Images”
