Great Combo Dinner


Sometimes you hit on just the right combination for your dinner that fits the moment and your mood.   Here we have the happy comfort food of grilled cheese along with the spring zing of an arugula salad with a lemon vingarette dressing!

Summer Breeze....

Oh the love affair between Americans and their air conditioning....
   I admit it - I heart my AC, especially when it stops working and the temperature goes above 80.   However, it really was kind of nice to sleep with a cool breeze coming in through the windows once the temperature dropped and I also had the ceiling fan going.





 It reminded me of when I lived in Italy for a summer in an apartment with no air conditioning except in the living room.   The cheap little fan I bought saved my life!  I left it there for the next student so she would not have to suffer - kind of paying it forward I guess.

Atlanta Dogwood Festival 2012


Celebrating the 75th Atlanta Dogwood Festival


Not only was it great fun to see all the artwork and hear the bands play in the park but the fact that after 75 years the festival is still going strong - it is just great. 

And it was even better to see that the Dogwood Festival is going green!
