*******Please Subscribe To My Blog…..It Really Helps******* ~~~”Be still my beating heart”~~~ My Jim Beam pilgrimage continues….. I did go into my local Winn Dixie liquor store…and had a confabulation with the regular cashier….. She noticed my distraught comportment…(and yes–comportment)….. My stare was middle-distanced and unfocused…I had a knuckle dragging posture…and slumped carriage….. In a nutshell…I was sadness and depression personified….. I started my questions as soon as I put my regular purchases on the counter by the cash register……..

*******Please Subscribe To My Blog…..It Really Helps******* We had a Good Freeze!…We had a Long Freeze!….. It Was A REALLY GOOD Freeze!….. Two nights straight…and I think we had what meteorologists officially consider a “Hard Freeze” for both of those nights….. …..(It got down to 24F one night!)….. ***Hopefully The Mosquitoes…Their Larvae…And Their Eggs Have ALL Frozen…(I know I’m frostbitten)*** Me and my diminutive chainsaw were busy getting ready and sawing away at anything that fell in the backyard and…

*******Please Subscribe To My Blog…..It Really Helps******* I know I’ve done at least one post in the past about peanuts….. …..particularly…boiled peanuts….. But because they’re so good…I thought they warranted another go-round….. …..I love those slimy little things…they’re addictive….. My northern Ohio relatives think I’m crazy…(for a lot of different reasons)…but specifically regarding the boiling of raw green peanuts….. They just don’t get the wonderfulness that is the boiling of a peanut…and the savoring of its innards….. It’s a Southern-thing…

*******Please Subscribe To My Blog…..It Really Helps******* Well…one thing led to another….. …..then….. It became necessary to “attempt” another lamb cake for our Easter dinner dessert….. And…as expected………….the plane wreck of a cake happened again….. Everything was going along swimmingly…we were all anticipating a yummy Easter dinner…with an equally yummy Winn Dixie cheesecake dessert….. But we forgot to actually go to Winn Dixie…to actually buy their cheesy cake….. What happened next…was a drop back and punt sort of situation where…

*******Please Subscribe To My Blog…..It Really Helps******* Whoa!…when did that happen?….. …..maybe I should look at the wall calendar more often….. Easter can sneak up on you….. Even the date is variable…it’s the first Sunday…after the first full moon…after the Spring Equinox…..(?)….. How’s that for convoluted….. But we did just have the Pink Full Moon…and this coming Sunday is the first Sunday after the Pink Moon…so there’s that….. *****(Click Here for an Explanation of the Timing of Easter Sunday…(but it’s…

**********Please Subscribe To My Blog…..It Really Helps********** Well…I still don’t know who won…and who’s Alpha Pig….. They are playing their cards really close to the vest….. But if Scott’s constipation is any indication…I would bet that he lost….. Scott is not eating…which is highly unusual for a pig….. Special treats were offered…and refused….. Apparently girls swooning…being in a new home…fighting for his old Heavy Weight Title….. …..well…it was enough to cause some clenching…and resulting constipation….. Beau seems to be a…

**********Please Subscribe To My Blog…..It Really Helps********** I just did my last (scheduled) Hit & Run on our local/friendly Winn Dixie grocery store….. Thanksgiving is six…6…seis…VI…days away….. …..and Winn Dixie has a sale on frozen turkeys………….Tra!  La!….. …..and yes…maybe I abused the sale ads…(just a bit)….. When they say “One Per Customer”…I really know they mean…”One Per Customer Per Visit”….. Plus…my daughters have become very adept at the “Side-Shuffle Shift” of our debit card…from check-out register…to check-out register….. The cashiers…

Snakes On A Plane!

**********Please Subscribe To My Blog…..It Really Helps********** Nope…it’s not really “Snakes On A Plane”!….. …..it’s more like…”Snakes In The Coop”!….. …..again….. And my reactive vocabulary was strikingly the same….. …..(and not printable)….. I thought we might eke through this summer without being up close & personal with any snakes….. But…alas…it was not meant to be….. Unfortunately…chickens attract predators….. They seem to run around cackling and wearing sandwich-signs saying they are available as tasty/crunchy treats….. They’re considered the personal drive-thru snack…

**********Please Subscribe To My Blog…..It Really Helps********** The Summer Solstice just occurred…(again)….. …..I’ve noticed………….it’s an annual thing….. *****(The Earliest Summer Solstice in 228 Years)***** I enjoy all the seasonal hallmarks…it’s a reliable march through the year….. *****(Brief Explanation of the Seasonal Hallmarks)***** I extra like the Summer Solstice…because it marks the turning point…and the beginning of the shortening of days….. Maybe most people like when the days get longer…I’ve always liked when they get shorter….. …..call me weird….. *****(Today is…

*******Please Subscribe To My Blog…..It Really Helps******* We try to get up early…… For the past months it’s been a regular routine…get up…open up the house…let in the morning air…and let out the night time staleness (i.e. slumbering hound flatulence)….. I’d like to say…I would be comfortable leaving the windows open all night long…but I’m not….. Some of the house’s windows are low…and too close to the outside ground….. Some of the windows have been replaced in the house where…
