What ... where ... when ...

 


Hey there!   
With a nod to my long-ago journalism goals, here's a glance at the days of our lives.



What?
Well, one of us is happy (heh-heh)!





Where?
The other day we ventured west to a part of Alabama we'd never been.  There, on historic Broad street, a structure Time seemed to have forgotten.  Built in 1832, it boasted 12' ceilings, 3 fireplaces.
  Due to neglect, however, the rooms were dirty, the outbuildings decaying.  Watching where we stepped and dodging cobwebs, we didn't linger.  

Still, there's something about old Southern homes that tugs at my imagination.


Approaching the lunch hour, Tom gave me a choice:  Mexican? Olive Garden? Long Horn?  No question, I'd been craving a nice piece of salmon.

One for the Joy journal!   Our fav waitress not only had an open table but weeks after we'd last visited, V. even remembered what we usually order!  Solicitous without being condescending, she made my day!


When?

A little later this evening:  From the Test Kitchen, I'm trying a new-to-me recipe for French Onion meatloaf. 
I caramelized a big old pot-full of onions earlier and grated a block of Gruyere.  Golly!  Never mind I can't even pronounce it, if I'd known how much that cost, we'd be eating another version.  Oh well  ... new year, new to me!

   

Why?

Still hoping to discover my Purpose (word of the year).  Look what I found in my new Max Lucado 2025 Devotional!   

Just perhaps, like in Field of Dreams -- if I put it out there, it (the answer) will come.






... and how?

With a little help from my friends!
(That's you!)


I hope y'all enjoy an awesome week!

Hugs, Myra
