Here is a picture I took on Marta (sorry so fuzzy) - but this advertisement is for a hooker - […]

I made some “homemade” chicken and dumplings the other night and let me just say they were tasty.  Before hand, I went and bought these dumplings (obviously they were “homemade” by Mary Hill herself) in the frozen food section of Publix.  Now, Grandma Mary on the picture made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside, […]

Alison and I just got back from a fabulous vacation in California.  A few days were spent sipping wine in the Russian River Valley where we enjoyed meeting people while “tasting wines.”  Our favorite winery, Lambert Bridge, has a connection to Atlanta.  Not only does Andy, the proprietor (true title: National Sales Manager) of Lambert […]
