I'm sure this is not new to some, but just experienced a fast food order/pick-up experience that just got me hooked." Normally, I can walk into a major pizza chain and say "one pepperoni please." On a very rare occasion, they may not have a pepperoni and I may have to settle for a cheese if I...

I acknowledge I am an absolute cynic. I disdain Hollywood actors for their lifestyles and beliefs, yet I enjoy their ability to transcend me to a different place via their acting ability. Having said that, wondering if British actors have a Holliwood equivilant where the general population...

Very lucky I did not live on Ramen noodles in college. However, in retirement, I have since used them as a quick lunch item accompanied by a toasted peanut butter sandwich and lots of hot sauce in the Ramen soup. So local grocer had Ramen noodles on sale so I stocked up. I plan to not use the...

I've been watch Acorn TV via Hoopla and have discovered many shows that I want to continue streaming beyond the limitations associated with Hoopla (5 selections per month via local library). In researching, I discovered Britbox as an alternative to Acorn and is about the same monthly fee. I...

I'm watching a global athletic event on TV (The Open) which will go for 6 hours or so. Decided to treat myself to non-healthy calories to accompany me watching the event. So what junk food(s) do you indulge in to watch a televised sporting event? Mine is Twizzlers and/or peanut M&M's.

I recall this time of year as a youth when I would go out to the garden as requested, pick tomatoes, and Mother would make Bacon, Lettuce & Tomato Sandwiches for lunch. I never cared for fresh tomatoes, so I just had a bacon sandwich. I rarely buy bacon, but I did last week on a whim and just...

Coincidentally, I had to search for a CD certificate that matures in November and couldn't find it. I started going through shoe boxes of "collectibles" (to me anyway) and came across years of old birthday cards and father's day cards and decided to start the "purge." After all, when I leave...

figuratively speaking that is. Retired from MegaCorp 18 months ago at age 58 but went immediately to a part time job which required living full time at a local historic mansion assisting with social events, house keeping and responding to security alarms (which spoke to me frequently). It was...
