Our Magical Future Theatre
I’ve been spending a lot of time lately working on things for the Gibson County Theatre Company. I ended up spending almost my entire weekend at GCTC productions, rehearsals and workdays. On Friday night, I handled ticket sales for the GCTC Drama Camp production of Willy Wonka. That was a lot of fun. After the…
Read MoreCaturday with Bonnie
Bonnie is our cat. She’s a pretty exciting cat, so for something fun, I thought I would write down a few of her adventures. First you should know that I’m pretty sure she thinks she is a dog, because she follows people around everywhere. Bonnie came to live with Matt and I last summer along…
Read MoreMaple Glazed Chicken
This recipe for Maple Glazed Chicken came from the Disney Family Cookbook. It’s one of my favorite ways to have chicken, assuming I get the chicken cooked thoroughly. That seems to be my biggest problem. I guess I really should follow instructions and only use fully thawed chicken (meaning defrosting the chicken in the microwave…
Read MoreHowling Moon
There are nights when the wolves are silent and only the moon howls. Last night was one of those nights. I got home from my full day of work, photo shoots, and rehearsal; and wanted to make some updates to one of the websites I host. Enter the WordPress 3.0 update. It’s a nice quick…

Read MorePhoto Shoot in a Dress
Never wear a dress to a photo shoot. That was the first lesson I learned today. It was a cute dress, and I looked nice at work, but man…. I should have made time to go home and change between events. Wearing a dress makes it very difficult to crawl around for floor level shots.…
Read MoreHow Does Your Garden Grow?
Mary, Mary quite contrary, how does your garden grow? With silver bells and cockle shells and pretty maids all in a row? Good for you, Mary. Mine grows like a jungle. Matt & I finally put some cattle panel up in the garden last night. Our cucumbers were taking over our lettuce. Of course, even…
Read MoreFresh Blueberry Muffins
Since I went and picked fresh blueberries on Saturday morning, I decided to make some homemade blueberry muffins. I decided to freeze the blueberries first, in hopes that they would hold up better in the muffins. They just came out of the oven. I’m going to have them for breakfast, but have no intention of…
Read MoreMiniature Melt-a-Ways
This is one of those great recipes that starts with a cake mix, cutting the prep time in half. Dipping the miniature cakes can be a bit messy, but it’s well worth it. Ingredients 1 box yellow cake mix 3 eggs 1/3 cup oil 1 1/4 cup water or unsweetened juice 1 (16 oz..) pkg…
