An Awesome View of Life

Seeing spots? Oh wait that looks like my jammies.  Apparently I haven't lost my sense of humor while having the flu.  This is about how bad my vision is because of the headache I have.  Off to bed soon.  Hoping to feel better and funnier in the morning. (:

Reflective Creek This is a photo taken earlier this month.  Unfortunately, I am STILL a bit under the weather.  Tomorrow will be a better day.   So a funny about myself and the word creek.  I read it as "creak" but when I speak it without reading it I say "crick".  Not sure why but... Is it a Minnesota thing?  Or a South Dakota thing?  Or just my thing? (:

One of the Cool Kids. My 40 year class reunion was this past weekend.  Saturday night was the "official" party but on Friday night we had an "impromptu" get together at Turner Hall.  This freezer door was in the main entryway.   While standing at one end of the mosaic tile my thought on this whole scene was -- "If I follow these tiles to the freezer door will I become one of the cool kids?"  Said more with a bit of ha-ha because after all it IS a freezer door.  (: I guess I never really cared if my classmates thought I was cool or even noticed me at all.  I was who I was, not always happy with certain aspects of being me at times and not always accepting not being one of the "cool" kids but I think we all at some point in our lives want to be someone or something different than who/what we are.  I was extremely quiet (not necessarily shy), very unique and fairly smart.  I had good friends that were pretty cool just like me.  ...

  Reflections...   Can you find my waving daughter, my hubby's arm and shoulder, the red light, the ceiling light, kitchen cabinets, sink faucet, downspout, house roof, camera and a bit of the photographer? 

What's Cooking?   Part of my New Year's resolution is to be creative in ALL things I do.  Cooking is one of those things.  I LOVE Thai food and found this "clean" recipe for a Basil Beef Stir Fry.  It is exactly like a dish served in my favorite Thai restaurant in Boynton Beach, FL. This is so easy to make, has the best flavors and the basil in this makes it smell so wonderful.
