How far for tasty goodness





So how far would you drive for some tasty goodness on a Sunday morning. For me it's about a 20-25 minute drive to a little hole in the wall place. I think the time is worth it.



Mmmmmm Mmmmmm good.

My memorial Weekend tradition

Today is one of my favorite days of the year, the sunday of memorial day weekend. Ever since I can remember growing up this was Indy 500 day. It is tradition, and until I got older I thought it was the tradition of every American household.

I love the all the pageantry, the history, the drama. The national anthem, the 21 gun salute and taps honestly bring my heart into my throat as we remember our country's fallen heroes. And Jim Neighbors signing "Back home Again in Indiana" is one of my guilty pleasures.

This year, as in years past, I am pulling for John Andretti and Tony kanaan. They both are hard luck kids, getting bit by the crash/breakdown bug every year. But each year could be the one.

Later in the night is nascar's 600 mile race, which I will half watch. It just has always seemed like the new kid on the block, trying to step into indy's spotlight.

I want to take a moment to thank all those who have served in our military forces. Even if we only seem to show our appreciation on a couple days during the year, we thank you for your service every day. And I thank all those who gave there life for my freedom to enjoy this day.

Good morning world

Good morning world. This is my Thai pepper plant I have growing on my back porch.

As I looked at my little pepper growing so nicely, I couldn't help but think "why didn't you plant that in the two vegetable garden beds you made?".

Ahhh nature at it's finest confined to a small plastic tub sitting on the railing of my porch. Just the way it should be.
