Me: Greg do you want some chicken pot pie now? Greg: Sure. But what’s for dinner? Me: Chicken pot pie. It is not a dessert kind of pie. <Eric walks in> Greg (to Eric): We are having pie. For dinner! All I know is that it has chicken in it. And popcorn. Me: Popcorn? Greg: Yeah. You … Continue reading Pie, It’s Not Just For Dessert Anymore →
Confession time: I have never made a pie. Ever. The thought intimidates me. I mean, check out the recipe at the bottom of this post! It’s not a recipe, it’s a short novel.

I couldn’t believe it. That means they ALL read my blog and ran right out to try what I suggested, … Continue reading Oppan Costco Style →
Sorry Forrest, but you are wrong. Like is NOT like a box of chocolates. If it was like a box of chocolates, the worst that could happen is…well…getting chocolate. Even your least favorite piece has some sweetness. Even if you see what you are sure is a speck of Vanilla Buttercream peeking through the chocolate coating but, after you pop … Continue reading Life Is Like A Box Of Brown Stuff →

It’s my way of sharing the humorous – and not so humorous – moments with my friends while also being an outlet for my joy of writing.
