Pelicans in St. Augustine When my brother came down to visit last month, we took a walk over the “Vilano Beach Bridge” (real name Francis and Mary Usina Bridge). Our walk over the bridge began with an excellent view of some swamps, and all the bird-life it attracted. As we proceeded higher up the bridge, … Read More about Pelicans in St. Augustine
What Was The Last Article of Clothing You Bought?
Hubby asked me the other day what was the last article of clothing I bought? I looked at him with a vacant stare because I honestly can’t recall.

Are You A Pinner?
Do you have a pinterest account? Do you pin? Do you repin? I am ambivalent about pinterest myself. I finally made a Ann’s Entitled Life account on pinterest about four months ago.

Publix had Pepperidge Farm layer cakes on sale B1G1, so Hubby brought two home last week. Deciding that I desperately needed a sugar rush (and Hubby was out of chocolate!!!), I pulled one out of the freezer to defrost.

Inexpensive, Temporary Window Coverings
The last few months, Hubby and I have spent time down in Florida setting up our new condo. Not only were we painting and buying furnishings, but we had to replace all the windows as well as the sliding door in the unit. That meant we had to wait on installing window coverings. There was … Read More about Inexpensive, Temporary Window Coverings
*Sniff* I’m Gonna Whine a Bit
For the first time in I can’t remember how long, I caught a cold!!
