goodies back a couple of
them happened to be in

There was Chai Tea Bath
Salts, Handmade Goats
Milk Soap, a jar gripper,
a trinket box, two tea
infusers, Vanilla lotion
and body wash.

Here's an easy recipe for
you to enjoy. So pull up a
chair and relax!
**************************
Easy BBQ Pork
From my Kitchen
5 boneless pork chops
Seasoning for the chops
(your choice)
Water
BBQ Sauce--your choice
*************************
In a large skillet, place
chops--cover with
water and seasoning.
Simmer on med/high for
approx. 2 hours, turning
every half hour. After the
2 hours check for tenderness.
If tender remove from pan,
let set to cool them shred all
the chops. Set aside.
Empty water from pan, put your
sauce and the shredded chops
back in the pan and let simmer

Chances

What are the chances that two blog buddies
would meet at a minor league baseball game??
I had the pleasure of meeting Mary Ann---of
Calamity Acres at our local minor league
stadium!!!
She and her husband Keith go regularly and
my family planned to go over the memorial
day weeeknd. When we both realized that we
would be at the same game , plans were under
way to meet. We exchanged seat locations and
prayed it wouldn't rain.
Well, it did spit and sprinkle a little little and
boy oh boy was it COLD!!!!!!!!!!!!
we managed to stay for all 10 innings AND the
FIREWORKS , everyone was glad to get in the car.
It was super fun getting to meet Mary Ann, she's
great and we had a lot of fun talking in the small
amount time we had.
Check out her blog she does have some adventures!!!

TODAY...

Hello~~~ I spent the better part of the afternoon debating which to post--Sunday Savor or our grocery store trip. The store won out. We began our journey in the cafe, intending on having lunch. After we paid and found a table, I looked up and there is this woman and her teenage children going to the deli in their swimsuits! Now I know this is not unsual BUT in my opinion one should have more on than a sleeveless muscle shirt and their suit on at the store. Especially when one is a "bit" on the heavy side and body parts are spilling out the sides of the suit! Shorts would have been great too. On with lunch we went. As we were eating delish salads and fruits, Ken and I decided that since it was so hot today that pretty much NOONE cared what they looked like. Most everyone we saw had some form of swimwear on with bodyparts hanging out. Just wondering----??? Do people not look at themselves in the mirror before going out in public??? I realize also that everyone has days when they just don't care--I have them but it just seemed like EVERYONE had that feeling today. It's just too HOT!!!! Our next adventure at the store involved me. A fellow shopper tried to pick me up--not literally but you know. I was nice but moved quickly over to Ken who was at the meat counter. The guy went on his merry way and we continued to shop. Shopping was accomplished and we went home to take naps! Our trip to the store is usually not as eventful as today, but it sure made things interesting!!! :) :) :) :) ~Keep on Dreaming~
