Broccoli Salad

Now that it's officially spring, it's time to haul out the spring and summer recipes. Broccoli salad is one of my family's favorites. The fully engaged version calls for bacon, red onion, cheddar, raisins, and of course, broccoli. Here's the salad I made today, with just cheddar and Craisins (instead of raisins). YUM!

Uniball Signo 207 has "cult" following

I was getting a phone # from a friend when he whipped out his pen to write it down. I asked, "Is that a 207?" I could tell by his smile that he was "in the know" about this fantastic pen. When I bought my first 207, the silver one in the picture with the clear mushy grip, it was immediately siezed by my husband, claiming he needed it for "business." I bought this pen only because it was personally endorsed by Frank W. Abagnale, Jr. (hint--think Leo DiCaprio). My husband has since used up all the ink it it, which I thought was statistically impossible. So I had to get another 207, a black one, and brought home his friends blue and purple. Nothing but compliments on this pen which cost less than $3. My friend says many of his friends have discovered this pen on their own, and swear by it, as we do. So now we're all part of the 207 cult. I have a nice red 207 that has never been used that I have placed in a position of honor upon my family altar.

Sliding Meditation

Here's my DD at the top of the 8' slide doing some meditation!

Sunday Sunday

After my husband & I stayed up til 5am, we had a hard time getting started today. He DJed a wedding and I got together with my friend to bead and shop and eat. "Is there anything more relaxing than going through your beads?" she always says. Above are a couple of bracelets I made. The one on the right is pink quartz.

Spring Training

We're off to NY Yankees spring training in Tampa. Haven't been in a couple of years. Hopefully this is going to be a good year for them.
