Later I’ll talk about my upcoming FALL HAUL and I’ll wrap up the blog by looking ahead to Back to School shout outs. Maybe I won’t look ahead and enjoy what’s left of Summer 2023.Continue reading “25 Years Later: Back to School Shopping!”

Get ready with me as I prepare for tonight’s Pittsburgh adventure. There were things that made tonight special: Primanti’s for dinner, riding the subway from Gateway Center down to the North Shore, and of course the game itself. But before we talk about tonight’s Pirate game, just how did I get to this game? Also,Continue reading “A Well-Played Night!!!”

Last night I watched the Super Mario Bros. movie on Peacock. Was it as good as when I saw it the first time in the theatre. I would say yes and I will say yes to seeing this movie if you haven’t already. I digress, but on to today’s blog post. In July, I hadContinue reading “When Will I Hit 500?”

Our first meeting of the year was July 5 and during the meeting,Continue reading “Goodbye July!”

It was held at the local vocational-technical school, the Greater Johnstown Career and Technology Center (GJCTC) in Richland Township, across from the University of Pittsburgh atContinue reading “College Transfer Day: 20 Years Later”

In tonight’s installment of the Westmoreland dinner series (unofficial name), Mr. Clougherty and I ate at Rizzo’s in Crabtree. I was inspired to try it out after the Hempfield Area swimming and diving team held their yearly banquet here this past Spring. Rizzo’s is located on Rizzo Road in Crabtree, just off US 119. NearbyContinue reading “James the Food Slayer: Rizzo’s”

Today’s post is more photo-driven as I let the pictures tell the story. Recently I used my Old Navy gift card to purchase some fall-related tops and other cooler weather outfits. You’ve seen my outfit of the day pics on social media and these new fits will not disappoint. First up are these cute HalloweenContinue reading “James the Outfit Slayer: New Fall Outfit Try-on”

Country music has its power couples. While some look at George Jones and Tammy Wynette as one of the originals, others look at Faith Hill and Tim McGraw as the most popular (I love their duets). For me, Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood rank up there as my favorite country music couple. Garth is #1Continue reading “Southern Reading and Cooking”

This Fall, I have some books that will be coming that I’m interested in reading. One is by a design expert from an award-winning Netflix series. Another is by a girl whom I discovered on Instagram who loves Fall and finds the joy in every season. Third is a lifestyle book written by a countryContinue reading “At Home with New Home Decor and Lifestyle Reads This Fall!”
