Road Runner Theme Are you there? Sitting on the floor in front of the tv in your pajamas on a Saturday morning? I love how it ends in an ad for Keds. Remember those? Run faster! Jump higher! Oh, I wanted Keds shoes!! Of course, if you are a girl of a certain age you... Continue Reading →
Dream Dinner #2
As you can tell by the bites, I almost forgot to take a picture of this one!! Pulled pork sandwiches. The meat, sauce and bread provided by DD. Corn on the cob on sale at Vons. The suggested side dish was cole slaw, and I suppose a green salad would have been healthier, but the... Continue Reading →

Dreamy!
There is my pile 'o dinners for the month. 9 different dishes with 3-6 servings of each. It was fun last night! I arrived at Dream Dinners right at 7:00. It was a pretty small place so I can see why they only allow 12 at a time in there. You pick up your pre-ordered... Continue Reading →
The cupboards are bare!
Yes, they are. Click on the photo to see just what we have right now. There is people food on only two shelves of the 'pantry'Â - the others have cat food, Tupperware containers and then bulk paper goods in them. The 'fridge essentially has containers of leftovers (the one paper plate you see has... Continue Reading →
