From snow and ice to sand and sun

What a difference a few weeks can make! It wasn’t too long ago me and my pups were homebound for about a week in Nashville from ice and snow locking the city down. Picture 1 is in my snowy backyard. The rest of the pics are from sunny, sandy Florida where it got a bit chilly but the sun warmed us right up, a welcome change, in my opinion. I’m happy it’s spring, counting down the days till summer already! Thanks for stopping by 🙂

Here are a few more birds from the gulf coast of north Florida. Such beauty in the air and on the ground all around me this week.

Birds of Paradise, part 1

I’ve been slightly obsessed with taking photos of birds while on vacation in North Florida. I guess I never understood the joy until I started taking pictures of them. Here are a few from St. Teresa Beach, Florida, recently.

More to come soon, thanks for stopping by!

Happy burp taste to you

One evening I kept burping and it tasted like the Beyond Burgers I had for dinner that night. Happy burp tastes is what that was.

Have you tried the Beyond Burger, plant-based patties that taste very much like the burgers you are used to? I highly recommend them. Not only are they yummy on the way in, but you may be able to celebrate your burp taste for the rest of the night.

Lucky you!

Thanks for stopping by!

My 3 favorite shows currently on broadcast TV

Last Man Standing – The only show where a conservative character pokes fun of liberals (instead of the other way around like every other sitcom, news, talk show), and it’s very clever, funny, and heartwarming. Tim Allen is great, and the cast is awesome, too. My only gripe would be the replacement of one of the characters in the last season or two. Tim Allen’s character Mike Baxter has a daughter named Mandy Baxter. She’s ditzy yet likable. She dated and married Kyle Anderson who is also flighty and likable. The actress who played Mandy for years was Molly Ephraim, but then was replaced by Molly McCook. McCook is a fine actress, but she doesn’t play the “dim-witted” character well. Anywho, check out this hilarious scene.

Hell’s Kitchen – Love this show, especially the current season (season 19). They are down to a 6 or 7 contestants and I have come to really like 2 or of them (Jordan and Mary Lou), more than I have in previous seasons. I know very little about cooking and preparing meals for large gatherings so that part is fascinating, and the harsh treatment from Gordon Ramsey is entertaining, but then he’ll have moments of tenderness which is refreshing.

Big Sky – This is definitely my top favorite. The plot is entertaining and has twists and turns that are hard to predict. The villains are evil, but have elements of humor, while the protagonists are strong and likable. The show debuted in late 2020 and the ratings were strong right off the bat before declining a bit. I hope the show continues but it’s up to me and people around the country to keep tuning in so it gets picked up for future seasons. Here is another post about the show I wrote a few months ago.
