My adopted grandmommy’s daddy used to eat cush-cush. It’s a concoction he would make by crumbling stale cornbread into a tall glass. He would then pour milk over the top of the bread. When it was good and soggy, he would eat it with a spoon. But I’m not talking about cush-cush, I am talking […]
Rain and snow create an opportunity. Rain and an additional 35 inches of snow that had to be plowed delayed the scheduled opening of the Going to the Sun Road. It was our good luck that it turned out that way (if you call the opportunity to make your legs nauseous, lucky). My family and […]

Yesterday was the longest day of the entire year, meaning that today is our first full 24 hours of Summer. For many, this means the beginning of days spent recreating in the outdoors- rafting, hiking, or horseback riding. For them, summer is a time of activity and excitement. Still others take the onset of summer […]
You may think I’m insensitive, but I don’t get all of the fuss about Kitty’s kittens. I was introduced to them today, and “OH!, the humiliation”. I had to sit in my pet taxi while the four frisky felines frolicked and played twinkle toes in the yard. UGH! You can imagine how sad, disgusted, […]
Summer begins June 20, but you’d hardly know it by the look of things with people walking around in jackets and knitted caps, and my daughter wrapped in a blanket complaining of how cold it is. However, that doesn’t mean we wouldn’t enjoy a delicious serving of Frozen Passion. Jump to Recipe Spring cleaning is […]
Although I knew the views would be lovely and the Mission’s spectacular, the thought of our annual drive to Moise and the hours and hours of driving around the National Bison Range didn’t thrill me. I hated to think that I was getting cynical about this national treasure, but then I realized it wasn’t the […]
You cannot see it in this picture, but it is raining hard outside. But I am not looking at the rain, I am trying to listen to squawking crows while my adopted grandmommy is listening to Comfortably Numb. She plays music WAY TOO LOUD. She’s a boomer and thinks it is cool to listen […]
Our latest freebie edible plant hike adventure began when I saw an advertisement in the newspaper that read something like this: –Take a nature hike and learn how to identify edible plants. Weather permitting. Call “T” to make reservations. Thinking this was something my family would find interesting, I asked my youngest […]
Recently, I was able to escape out of the back door and romp about the yard for a few minutes. It was purrfect before I was captured and returned to my indoor prison. Lately, I’ve been feeling jealous of all of the other felines that get to play outside. I am stuck indoors because of […]
