life is change. and now that my sons are grown and no longer live with me, the sounds i listen for in the night are their cellphone ring tones.
they think nothing of calling me at 2:30am. to have a nice long chat.
it’s all good.

lovely post. well done.

I think I just threw up a little bit in my mouth. Still, I don’t think it’s as bad as that egg!

That egg was truly gross!!! Good lord, who the hell would have thought of that.
Anyway, I know you wrote this post just to get me to say V’etMeneese. Well, it ain’t going to work.

Fabulous Phở, meat kabobs and egg rolls, too, for those not adventurous enough to try the “fowl veal.”

That is really a wonderful kind of quiet. I almost feel guilty about how much I appreciate when it happens to me.

Almost.

Before kids, I could sleep like a rock. Now, even though one is living way from home and the other is well into his teens, I can still hear him turn over in the middle of the night. When I am away from home, or if he is, it is almost too quiet.

Comment on Bayou Banquet by Linda Holland

I used to work at D.H. Holmes. I worked at Lakeside, Lake Forest Plaza, and in the North Shore Plaza. I managed several areas and what I really miss the most is the pecan meltaways. I recently had a piece of candy that reminded me of the meltaways, but i can’t remember where i had it or what it was. When i worked at Lake Forest Plaza, the Bayou Banquet puzzle was a brand new item. They sold it along with those great gumbo bowls and crawfish trays (round trays with about a 1 1/2 inch lip all the way around with the same picture that is on the puzzle. I miss those too!
