    (Above: AI generated image) Who are you?  I know exactly who I am.  I’m that guy you may or may not have passed in the street.  I’m that guy that teaches his kids to stand up for what is right, by standing up for what he feels is right.  What is right?  Is something right based …
  • Who will you be tomorrow?Who will you be tomorrow?
    Yesterday I was the guy that works outside all day to try and make his home look presentable. Today, I’m the man that is enjoying some downtime with the kids. Who will I be tomorrow? Regardless of my chore or job for the day, I believe I am the same man. Every day I try …
  • Awesome WafflesAwesome Waffles
    I know that you can go out and buy a box of frozen waffles.  I know that you can pop them in the toaster or microwave and have breakfast in a few minutes.  I also know that a made-from-scratch, home-cooked meal will beat a frozen box meal almost every time.  I wasn’t much in the …
  • Homemade Chocolate Cake Covered with GanacheHomemade Chocolate Cake Covered with Ganache
    I was sitting around the house today, and became bored with the TV and internet.  Most of the time when that happens, I end up in the kitchen.  I know I’m a “big boy”, but I didn’t go to the kitchen to eat.  I was on a mission.  I was there to cook.  But what …
  • Something a little different – Don’t be scaredSomething a little different - Don't be scared
    I was playing around online today and ended up on a new website.  It’s called CreepyFeeling.com (no longer active).  There isn’t a lot on there, but there was an empty section that was asking for true stories.  It made me think about when I was a kid.  There may be ways to explain what happened, but …
  • Love For Your Pets – The Kitty PillowLove For Your Pets - The Kitty Pillow
    I feel that most of my posts have been food oriented, so I want to change up a little.  Well, if you consider going back to what I started out doing as changing. I snapped this photo a few nights ago, and thought it was cute, but it also held something a little stronger.  I don’t …
  • My Little FrogMy Little Frog
    The picture above is of an ultrasound of our baby at about 7 weeks.  While we, my wife and I, were watching the screen we both thought the same thing.  The baby’s shape looked like a sitting frog.  Therefore we nick-named the baby, “Frog”.  I couldn’t wait to scan the picture into the computer and …

  • Make Your Holiday Count This YearMake Your Holiday Count This Year
    Over the years I have seen stores that would close down for days to celebrate holidays.  Not every holiday, but the ones that people travel to visit distant relatives and keep the spirit of family alive.  Nowadays, things have gone too commercial.  I understand that in today’s world, that everyone doesn’t share the same values …
  • Solar Eclipse: 2024Solar Eclipse: 2024
    The photos above are from the Solar Eclipse on April 8th, 2024. This view is from North Carolina, which was slightly East of the “Path of Totality”. Luckily during the peak of the eclipse, we had some clouds roll in, which helped make it easier to see this magnificent event. In my …
