Everyone is Irish on St Paddy's Day and St. Paddy's Day weekend.

When we grew up Friday Dinner was always a variety of fish. The standard meal was fried fish and fried potatoes.Well as you know I try to make dinners healthier than my parents did. So here it is baked potatoes, baked cod, baked Marylin style crabcakes and baked carrots.Homemade Tartar Sauce the only thing not homemade is the cetchup but only Diane uses it:) and if you are wondering the lemon is from the backyard.In all fairness I had a true Real Estate Day, and this was the quickest easiest meal to put together on a Friday Night. Hope you will appreciate a simple not gourmet but fun dinner. Easy to make Fish from Trader Joe's, Crabcake from Wild Fork and potatoes from Ralph's/Kroger.Wishing you a relaxing and productive Real Estate Weekend.   Wishing you a safe and healthy life and I l...

Wordless Wednesdays:    life in a boring Pet friendly Realtor's Home in Los Angeles, CA. 90045Well, when Diane is at work in her office, (once a week and not working from home), you can see what the animals are doing in the house.

Speechless Sundays: If you think cats do not communicate, clearly you have not been exposed to cats. Now with that said, Jill has been coming up to me in my home office... talking, yelling and I ignored her.... then I went in the kitchen and look at the main photo.The empty hole is where she would eat kibble. Lately she has been on various medication and has some teeth pulled on top, hence she has become a fan of wet food and prefers wet food over kibble. Well, see for yourself.Now when she is content and full look what she does. Something we should do ourselves:)))Wishing you a safe and healthy life and I look forward to your comments.

" Men and women are limited not by the place of their birth, not by the color of their skin, but by the size of their hope." John JohnsonThis message is the beginning of Chapter One of Zig Ziglar's book called Over the Top. What a powerful quote hence I thought I would share here today.Let me share another part of this first Chapter of Zig Ziglar's book:"Fifty two percent of the CEO's of the Fortune 500 companies are from lower-middle-class or poor families and 80 per cent of the millionaires in America are first-generation millionaires. Opportunity is alive and well.Now with that said this book was written in 1997. if you want my take, nothing has changed.As Zig Ziglar said way back then I am in agreement with him " Is the top a destination, or is it really a journey?" I believe and al...

Speechless Sundays: Observations from a pet friendly Realtor in Los Angeles, CA.

Well  Debe Maxwell, CRS  posted a recipe about chicken Gnocchi, I thought what a great recipe let me see if I can incorporate it and make my own version.Well with that said, I had baked chicken breast from the other day aka leftovers. I always have the ingredients she listed, then I thought maybe I should add some Mushrooms and some Sun-Dried tomatoes to bring it up to the next level.I also added some chicken stock as well as some heavy cream at the end.Needless to say, I chose to use a different pasta. Her recipe was great, but I needed to bring it up to the next level:))Anyway,https://activerain.com/droplet/HY77 check out her recipe and look at my changes, no pepper or paprika other than that all the same:) Debe Maxwell, CRS  thank you for the inspiration:) Wishing you a safe and heal...

If you are a fan of true crime, specifically of serial killers, this is a must-read book for you.Terror in Ypsilanti John Norman Collins Unmasked by Gregory A. Fournier a book review. As a bit of background, I seldom read non-fiction books. That said, this book was gifted to me by one of Diane’s Goodreads online reader friends, a woman who hails from Michigan and who knew that I attended Eastern Michigan University (EMU) for two semesters from 1972-1973.  While I was waiting for my US Citizenship papers and subsequently hearing whether I would be accepted into the U.S. Air Force Academy or the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, I chose to go to EMU on a scholarship and grants rather than hang around my parents' house.  Yes, I was always up for an adventure back then! When I arrived as...
