Random Update
Can’t believe summer is almost here! Movies We saw a couple of movies last weekend. Prince Caspian which we totally enjoyed and Indiana Jones which Brian says is worth watching but just ok. I thought it was just not good. Not good at all. I left feeling like they recycled some old jokes (like the…

Massaman and Pad Thai
Just sitting here on Sunday evening watching my fantasy football hopes go up in flames once again while I change a few things on the site. Pretty relaxing weekend here. Just listened to the Hokie game yesterday (a drubbing of William & Mary) and ran a few errands last night, followed by a thoroughly enjoyable…

I’m still full
Holy cow, what an eating fest yesterday was. We have leftovers in the frig and plenty of Tums in the cupboard. We’re off to some sort of Christmas craft show today. I can not believe it’s Christmas already, but I think I’m ready for it. We’ll probably start decorating some tonight and then it’s a…

I am not a gardener
My Dad gave me some veggies from his garden yesterday, and we enjoyed some of them in a salad today. He’s a regular farmer with his monster garden, with his rows upon rows of vegetables. He could put Del Monte out of business. Meanwhile we’re chugging along with one radish and one green pepper. I…

HMD
My Mom just left our house with flowers in hand after enjoying a feast of fajitas. We also enjoyed a great strawberry swirl cake that Monica whipped up, and just had a swell time. This is the first time I’ve spent Mother’s Day with my Mom since I went off to college in 1991. Every…

The Burg
Went spent the past weekend in good ol’ Blacksburg. I even had a chance to take a couple of shots for the moblog. Had a great dinner at Mike’s Grill on Friday and lunch at Sharkey’s and dinner at Bogen’s on Saturday which is a record restaurant turn-out for us. I always try to hit…

Yardscaping
Wow, what a beautiful weekend, and we spent a great deal of it outside in our yard. On Saturday, we planted twelve azaleas down one side of our house (with fresh top soil and mulch) with the hopes that they will bloom watermelon red flowers relatively soon. It took a while digging all of those…

Typical Weekend
Pretty busy weekend for us as we started out having dinner with family to celebrate my uncle’s birthday on Friday night. We went to Frankie’s, a local rib place. I love me some good BBQ. Then on Saturday, I got up early to meet my Dad at our house to do some yard work. We…
