When we moved to the new house 3 years ago..... All the neighbors thought we brought along the Family Cat.... No one had ever seen her before we showed up..... But we didn't own a cat...In fact I am NOT a Cat Person.... Never have been...basically I have always hated cats since the early 60's when a Siamese jumped on my back while sitting in a doctors office...but that's another story...  Then one day looking out the back door this is what I saw... A cat curled up napping in a flower pot... A few days later I noticed the same cat pulling a snake out of one of our sea grass.... I decided on that day that I would start feeding this cat if it meant she was going to be a snake killer... Did I mention I also hate snakes.... She hung out high up on our fence.... watching us coming and going... I had to admit she was cute... So the feeding began.....at first once a day....  then twice a day.... and she kept coming back.... spooked if we dared to go near her....in fact w...

For the past almost 30 years..... If I'm missing on a Saturday morning this is where I Can be Found... My favorite Farmers Market... Burger's of Marietta Georgia... Getting out the the car this morning this was the first Thing I saw.... They were everywhere... Flowers of all descriptions.... Located on the industrial end of one of our Major Roads in the County....I am always surprised when I hear that anyone who has lived in Marietta for any length of time does not know about this place... year round....I go for our weekly Tomato Fix... I haven't mastered actually buying a plant and being successful growing my own.... So Burger's is my go to place for the Best Tomatoes in Town... All the veggies and fruits are located inside the building...so year round it feels like Summer.. I love Vidalia Onions... they are wonderful roasted with Parmesan cheese.. the corn this year is fabulous... And this is what I came for Today.... Why not try m...

Being a "Jersey" girl I feel that I am Fully Qualified to Review this weekends movie for all People over the age of 60! "Jersey Boys" of course the story of the 60's group The Four Seasons.... Hearing for years how fabulous the Broadway Play is we were fortunate two weeks ago to see Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons in person at The Cobb Energy Center here in Marietta.... For those who didn't see my comments on Facebook.. The show was Fantastic....No it was better then that. Frankie....who is now (according to everything online) Is 80 years old....the Boss swears that has to be a mistake...  Sang his heart out for 2 full hours... Sounding the same as he did back in the 60's.... The entire audience....even high up in the balcony were on their Feet singing and dancing along.... So going to see the movie...was a hard act to follow.... First and foremost....me and the Boss disagreed about the directing....He thought Clint Eastwood did a great Job... I...

Company was coming!! Maureen and Ed...our neighbors who we have been trying to get together with Forever were coming for Sunday Lunch and some Pool Time... Time to bake... But not too difficult....I had to make food too...so having my last baking endeavor be a big hit I thought why not... I dragged out my Mary Ann fancy pan from Williams Sonoma...a gift from daughter... and with a box of Strawberry Supreme cake mix.... Oh no Sue...you used a box mix? Yes I did...and it's fabulous....just don't ask who makes it.. It was either Duncan or Pillsbury... some Jello Strawberry Cream instant pudding (found at Walmart) mixed with 1 cup of milk and 1 cup of heavy cream which I whipped then folded together... Some big juicy strawberries and this cake is a hit... For those of you who don't know what the Mary Ann pan is... in reality it could be the "Mary Jane" pan but it's from W & S if your looking for one.... It has a big well on top for you to add filling... ...
