Met Tracy at Okoboji Grill for dinner. We both had Mediterranian (somehow that doesn’t look right) pasta.  Tracy taught me how to say cali-mata olives.  No pictures, though…what’s up with that…she always takes pictures of food.  We didn’t stop talking.  I learned about yoga..her latest passion..it’s something I want to try for many reasons…Missed MB… Read more

I was sitting around this morning watching Housewives of Orange County (I know…lame) that I had recorded the last two weeks and thought of something I felt strongly about so thought I should probably go blog..but didn’t…can’t remember now.  Watched Tim Hasselb-whatever on the View today…he and his arrogant wife traded shows…I’m sure she wasn’t… Read more
