Day 115- Iced Tea

a warm day
a refreshing drink
the clink of the cubes
floating, rolling, cooling
the first taste of summer

ahhhh... thirst quenched.


Thank you, iced tea, you made my day.

Day 116- Chicken Piccata

It turns out that Trisha Yearwood is more than just a wonderful singer.  I saw her on tv recently promoting her new cookbook, and the foods looked absolutely delicious.  I don't mean to be rude, but after looking at her husband (Garth Brooks), I decided that I just might be able to trust Trisha as a cook too.  She also said something that went straight from her mouth to my heart, "Butter.  The thing that makes my food so tasty is lots of butter."  Since the time my roommates caught me drinking a bit of garlice butter in college and made fun of me/were totally disgusted by me, I am constantly on the lookout for vehicles to deliver delicious buttery goodness into my diet.

Last year= Domino's pizza fun and deliciousness This year= A donation to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, a Domino's favorite "Find cures.  Saving children. St. Jude is unlike any other pediatric treatment and research facility. Discoveries made here have completely changed how the world treats children with cancer and other catastrophic diseases. With research and patient care under one roof, St. Jude is where some of today's most gifted researchers are able to do science more quickly. St. Jude is the only pediatric cancer research center where families never pay for treatment not covered by insurance . No child is ever denied treatment because of the family’s inability to pay." http://www.stjude.org/stjude/v/index.jsp?vgnextoid=f87d4c2a71fca210VgnVCM1000001e0215acRCRD ****** I got to do a lot of things that made me very happy today.  I started a tradition last year.  I created PowerPoints for my classes at the end of my student teaching ...
