Time for dinner!

My blogging creativity has waned in recent weeks as you all know. New ideas are few, so when I had a tiny bit of inspiration last night I had to go with it. It was a relatively good weekend, and I was inspired to cook something decent last night. Shrimp was on sale, so I decided to make Cajun Shrimp and Rice with roasted asparagus.


It smelled fantastic while it was cooking. The only problem was that I was impatient waiting for the spices to blend so I kept adding additional Cajun seasonings. Well..... It turned out really hot!




It was so tasty but the rice was incredibly hot, so I basically just picked out the shrimp to eat, which is the best part anyway. The asparagus was very good also. The red wine was just for staging, it took me three glasses of water to eat this meal. Live and learn. Have a great week everyone 😊

Wishing everyone a relaxing, healthy, enjoyable weekend.

What do you think?


Mother Nature or a little help from Photoshop?

Time for Football!

Time to lighten things up my dear friends. I know that we have some die-hard Super Bowl fans here at WTIOC. I forgot that this was the big day.

So who is playing again? Oh yes, those New England Patriots. Seems like everyone around here is cheering them on. I think I will head west and cheer for LA. Of course I do not really care who wins- and I probably won't even watch- but I love listening to your banter. So 1SC, TW, Pallottine- are you with me? Anyone else?





Amy and I will sit over here by the fire and just chat. Maybe Lucy will join us... ; ))

Turkey Jerky

As noted in the last post, my part of the country has been hit with Arctic weather. It has not been fun, and keeping the house warm has been a challenge. I decided to take advantage of a Christmas gift from my son to warm things up. It was a good decision.








He was waiting with anticipation for the first bite.


It was worth the wait.

Everyone stay safe and warm no matter where you are located. 
Thank you all for your concern for my family the past few weeks. I appreciate it so much!
