I’ve got three more tidbits of knowledge to pass along to you this week. I know. I amaze even myself. So, without further ado, three things I learned on Sunday: 1. If you go to the grocery store on Super Bowl Sunday you will most certainly be sorry. And not just because the checkout line… Continue reading One Handed Monkeys and Drinking Games

Three Things You Need To Know
Miss Jo-Lynne at Musings of a Housewife is hosting a new carnival. Normally, I’m not so much a fan of carnivals (corn dogs aren’t my thing and toothless carnies sorta creep me out) but the theme for the housewife’s carnival is (drum roll please…) What I Learned This Week. Seeing as how I’m a virtual… Continue reading Three Things You Need To Know
Just Call Me Mrs. Centenarian
Have you heard about blue zones? One of Dr. Oz’s doctor friends has been studying longevity in people around the world for quite some time now and he recently unveiled what he called “blue zones” on Oprah (and yes, I still TIVO Oprah in spite of our significant differences of opinion on many things).

High Quality People (HQP’s)
I figured it might be helpful to expound on this term since I’ll most likely be using it often. I realize that what I am about to express is not the least bit PC, and for that, I hope you’ll excuse me. If we are being honest with each other though (which I hope we… Continue reading High Quality People (HQP’s)
Stinky People
When my daughter saw the heading on my blog that read, “People who smell bad”, she repeated it aloud half giggling, half incredulous. She fully doubted I was really going to include such a thing on my site. After all, I’ve always taught her that if she doesn’t have anything nice to say she should… Continue reading Stinky People
