2010: 10 Things I've Learned in 2010... - 12/27/10 08:07 AM
2010 was again a year of learning experiences. I am happy to say this because when you stop learning, you stop living. There should always be a level of learning in your life.
This list is more on a personal level with a little humor attached.  Life is too short not to have a little humor! 
1. I've learned that a smile, a sweet text message or an encouraging comment can make someone's day (that's why I love Social Media!). It's those little things in life that truly add up.
2. I've learned that #TequilaTherapy with friends needs to happen at … (2 comments)

Oh, Parades! My heart races like it did when I was a child. The anticipation when you hear the sirens is so exciting, the sound of the big bass drum passing by with the marching bands, trying to catch the most wonderful throws, the excitement of the big finale...Santa Claus! I love a parade!
We have some wonderful Christmas parades in the Baton Rouge/Ascension/Livingston areas this year.

2010: 2010 Gonzales Jambalaya Festival - 05/26/10 12:08 PM
It's that time of year again folks!  Time for the Jambalaya Festival here in beautiful Gonzales, Louisiana!
For 43 years, we have celebrated the wonderful food that put us on the map, Jambalaya!  What is Jambalaya you ask?  OK, I know I have readers not from here so here ya go.  Jambalaya is a wonderful blend of pork, chicken, sausage and/or andoullie cooked down to tender perfection, married with the flavors of onion, bell pepper, garlic and other seasonings then cooked all together with rice.  Melt in your mouth goodness!  Jambalaya is probably one of my most favorite foods.

2010: 2009 A Year of Speed Bumps and Road Blocks - 12/31/09 12:54 AM
2009…it’s almost over.  As I sat down to write this, the first words to hit the keyboard were this. “Thank God this year is over. I am so ready for a New Year!” As I sifted through the past months in my mind, I pulled up the thoughts of seeing friends, family and strangers struggle with hardships, grief, pain and so much more.  Again the thought of “Thank God this year is over. I am so ready for a New Year!” crossed my mind.

As I thought about each of these challenges a little more, I found myself doing some … (5 comments)
