Prepping for the 6th annual Mother’s birthday luncheon!!!
It’s getting to be that time of year again – time for the annual Mother’s birthday lunch!  The invitations are done & most went out in yesterday’s mail.  I still have a few more to send out today & then that task will be completed.   In February, I bought the stamps the PO had for Valentine’s Da [...]

Amazon Music – a great option for a couple of reasons!
The past week, I’ve been uploading our music to Amazon storage. I’m doing this because over the past year, I’ve been moving from many hard drives (like FIVE) to a NAS (a personal network drive) and was trying to figure out how to play our purchased music (we have a lot… a whole lot) through Sonos. Although there’s a way to play from the NAS, [...]

How to save a scorched pan!!!
I had seen tips on the internet & finally was in a situation where I needed to give it a try.  Guess what…  THEY WORK!!!  (Or at least the one I used did!) Check out the video below…

Goodreads reading challenge 2016

Goodreads reading challenge 2016
This is the second year I’ve participated in the self defined reading challenge.  Although I came close, I did not meet last years goal.  But in my standard O/C way, I upped the ante anyway.  Once again, I did not meet my goal.  BUT… I met & exceeded last years.  So I have that going for me.

Facebook tutorial 0010 – a friend’s account has been cloned (cloning vs hacked)
When you get a friend request from someone who’s already one of your Facebook friends, it’s most likely a cloned account.  This is not the same as their account being hacked.  Hacked generally means someone was able to glean the login credentials & can take over the account & make posts & add photos to the hacked accou [...]

Is all the poli-talk getting you down?  Need a laugh or five?
All this election turmoil reminds me so much of 2004. For a few years, I had been heavily involved in a coffee lovers forum.  I mean, I not only ground my own coffee beans, I bought green beans & roasted them myself. And yet many long time regulars of the forum (message board) were at each others’ throats over the candidates. Even t [...]

Zoodle lasagne

Zoodle lasagne
Inspired by this recipe, I made zoodle lasagne for tonight’s dinner.  However as usual, I didn’t follow the recipe exactly & made it my own.  I didn’t make them “roll ups” but simply layered the zoodles like you would regular lasagne noodles.  I omitted the basil from the ricotta mixture, since my husband doe [...]

Mother’s Birthday Luncheon 2016

Mother’s Birthday Luncheon 2016
I know most of you already know this, but for those of you who don’t, my mother passed away two months shy of her 95th birthday.  In order to not be sad on that day, I decided to keep myself busy by hosting a girls lunch.  I did it up all girly, used my wedding china, good silver & crystal.  I then decided to make it an annual event [...]
