It’s been a while since I’ve posted. There’s only one reason for that – I’ve had an incredibly busy summer. Currently, I have about thirty potential blog posts floating around in my head, and if I were to actually try to catch up on them, it would take me the better part of a month.… [Read more…]

Another “B” post… no baseball this time, but most definitely beer. And barbeque. It was Memorial Day weekend, after all. So we fired up the smoker, and a few hours later, this is what we ate: We nailed the brisket this time, Charlie… absolutely wonderful. Seriously… and not just because we were drinking Jockamo…

Sunday afternoon at The Ballpark in Arlington. What fun! It was a hot but breezy day, and we started out in our seats. But as the shade began to disappear, we adjourned to the air-conditioned Upper Home Run Porch and the temptations of the all-you-can-eat buffet. Oh, and the siren song of beer, of course!… [Read more…]

But the one thing we all have in common? We love to eat. So the “all you can eat” tickets we had to the Rangers vs Royals game… [Read more…]

M-Dot. For a new Ironman.

Last Friday, I bought a fake Ironman tattoo for my husband. It was a private joke, a little jest based on the fact that Doug has never wanted a tattoo of any kind – that is, until he took up triathlon. The crazy sport that changed his life – our life! – in so many… [Read more…]

Well, actually, there is no “we”. It will just be Doug.  He’ll be the one battling high humidity, wind and high-eighty degree temperatures.  For Do, Garn and I, the greatest exertion of our day will probably be live-tracking Doug’s progress on my ipad, most likely while we’re sipping a cool drink in an air-conditioned room.… [Read more…]
