First Snow ❄️ of the Season

Judging by the weather forecast on Thursday, it’s apparent that winter has arrived in the Ohio Valley. If you were watching the game on Thursday night, how about that snow that fell during the game. It reminded me of the blizzard that hit Philadelphia during the game in 2013 against Detroit. Your opinion on theContinue reading “First Snow ❄️ of the Season”

It Was A Dark & Stormy Night

After two mild, yet rainy, days to start off the workweek, our weather changed drastically on Wednesday. We started out the day warm, and then temperatures fell. We went from 60s and showers and thunderstorms, to 30s and a brisk wind. It was a crazy weather day that saw tornadoes and severe weather, and aContinue reading “It Was A Dark & Stormy Night”

Looking Back at Friendsgiving

On Monday’s Holiday Bakjng Championship, the first half of the snow centered around Friendsgiving. The bakers made dishes to take to a Friendsgiving party at someone’s home or apartment. Watching this brought me back to a few years when I attended my first Friendsgiving party in 2021. My “sister” had planned an event the SaturdayContinue reading “Looking Back at Friendsgiving”

Christmas Coffee and Turkey Sandwiches!

This past weekend I continued my sampling of delicious fall features. Thanksgiving and Christmas came together on this seasonal mid-November weekend as I enjoyed the holiday coffee at Cuties. Also, I’m still not sure what the #1 turkey sandwich or feature will end up being. Friday, I stopped at Cutie’s as I had the PeppermintContinue reading “Christmas Coffee and Turkey Sandwiches!”

Over the Top Cupcakes and Turkey Day Delights!

It’s November and that means that top ten posts will be coming to the blog very soon. I just thought that I would get the word out as that means we’re nearing the end of the year, and I’ll be counting down some of the events in my life that made news in 2024. MilestonesContinue reading “Over the Top Cupcakes and Turkey Day Delights!”

Finding New Coffee Enthusiasts on Instagram

Tuesday night, I went to my Laurel Highlands Toastmasters meeting. It was a small turnout with only four of us there but still a good meeting. Our last meeting three weeks ago had three and was held virtually on Zoom. I was the jokemaster and told some funny Thanksgiving jokes. Sharon gave a speech onContinue reading “Finding New Coffee Enthusiasts on Instagram”

The Tuesday Sports Page

Sunday was a great day for watching football ats it was too wet to do any outdoor activities. I was able to watch the Steelers-Commanders game and finally get some of my summer clothes put away. Pittsburgh played early while Philadelphia had a late start in Dallas. Both Keystone State teams were successful on SundayContinue reading “The Tuesday Sports Page”
