Skip down to the divider line for the actual recipe instead of reading my drawn out lead in..... This is my first food blog.   I'm only blogging it because I posted the pic on Facebook and someone asked me for the recipe.   Maybe this will be a new trend for me....., its been a while!   I guess in a little selfish because i love to cook (i bought my house for the

I believe that a writer doesn't write the words, the words write themself through the writer, or at least that's how it works for me. So, if its been a year and a half since I have posted something on here, its just because I have been busy, being happy and enjoying life, and the words... well they must of been on vacation drinking to many margaritas.Just WordsAnd one day the words will run out

"Art never comes from happiness." Choke - by Chuck Palahniuk.I definitely write more when things are stressing me out, but it doesn't necessarily have to be unhappiness, sometimes I just need to be rattled a bit. In fact it has been about 2 years or more since I have written anything deep.So, Yes, I am a little rattled right now. Its like they say "Everything happens for a reason". Who

I bought a new camera recently. Nothing grand, just something that had a few new settings I could play with so I could try taking some shots after dark. Here are some of the fireworks from Lakemont. The photo's are a little grainy from converting it into an animated gif, the originals are very sharp and clear. But I like the animated effect. Hope you enjoy!

So last night we were roaming around without a purpose, kinda like most Saturday nights. We ended up going to see the wrong band, but decided we would risk paying a 2nd cover charge to go see one of our favorite bands British Invasion. Liz & I always end up talking to the lead singer. Its usually about Pink Floyd (my fav band) or Led Zeppelin (her fav band). First he told us about a really

The following is a blog entry written on Aug. 30, 2008, by Army Specialist Stephen Fortunato, who was killed October 14, 2008 in Afghanistan when the vehicle he was riding in was blown up by an improvised explosive device.

This blog is all about my new fav tv show "Lost". I vaguely remember there being a lot of hype about it when it first came out, but I really had no interest in a show about people being stranded on an island. So about a month ago I tuned in to the Sci-Fi channel to watch Star Trek. Instead there was some other show, it started out with a plane crash and even though I didn't know anything about

The latest version of Y2K hysteria & panic passed through the night with hardly a notice. I think most people didn't even hear about it or it was to complicated to understand.

The Americans Who Risked EverythingIt was a glorious morning. The sun was shining and the wind was from the southeast. Up especially early, a tall bony, redheaded young Virginian found time to buy a new thermometer, for which he paid three pounds, fifteen shillings. He also bought gloves for Martha, his wife, who was ill at home.Thomas Jefferson arrived early at the statehouse. The temperature

Another long overdue blog.Wow, what a long weekend, but well worth it. 2131 miles in a weekend. 33 hours of driving, and very little sleep. DJ & I left Altoona around 6pm. We would have left a little sooner but fortunately in my rush to get everything packed, maps printed out and locations entered into "Fritzy" (the nickname Leanne gave my GPS when we were in Puerto Rico, but that's

You may or may not have noticed, but sometimes I like to be vague & cryptic about my blogs. Sometimes it may seem like the blog is nothing more than a cool picture I took and a poem or quote. These usually have some crazy sounding name.Take this one for instance. It may look like a picture I took in Old San Juan, of an old dark fort and a cemetery. With the ocean in the background and a old

I'm back from Puerto Rico. I am uploading my pictures right now. You can see them in my Picasa Puerto Rico album. I will probably write a blog about my trip later in the week, once I have caught up on my sleep. I will be adding pictures later in the week so keep checking back. I have more pictures that need sorted through and some panoramics to make. The trip was a blast.

Its 2:30am, so I should be on the road to Pittsburgh right now. Our flight leaves at 6:15am. After a brief stop at JFK we will be headed to sunny Puerto Rico. We rented a beautiful hacienda that’s real close to the beach. Check it out here. We are staying in Humacao, pronounced \u.ma.'ka.o\.

Two weeks ago I was in Pittsburgh for a Security + class. Its a class on protecting computers from hackers and other interesting stuff. I learned lots of fun things :)I was able to find a nice overlook and take the above picture. If you click on it you will get the full view. I also have the same picture taken during the day.

Ok, it’s Sunday morning. I was out a little late the night before, but I’m on call for work, so I have to be up. The phone rings at 9:13am, I have to go to work. So I drive to State College, flip a couple of power switches, and everything is back on-line. What to do next?Next, I decide I will kill some time by checking out a movie. It’s been a while since I have seen a movie. So I drive to the
