It’s funny how certain things that appeal to our senses can trigger all kinds of memories for us. One that seems to be particularly powerful, at least to me, is our sense of smell. We notice or smell certain things, whether in our own house, someone else’s, out at a store or in a restaurant […]


Wow, I got lots of good responses about snack cakes! It’s obviously a subject that many people feel quite strongly about. Michelle and I decided that if she hits the PowerBall this week we’ll take some of the winnings and buy Hostess so we can be sure we’ll have all the snacks we want :). I think […]


It’s been over a week since I have had time to any blog postings. I really need to try to get myself in gear to do this more often. I really enjoy it, it’s just been finding the time to do it that’s the trouble. I guess I really just need to put my mind […]


It’s funny when I sit down to write things. I have little notepads and notebooks all over the house where I write ideas down all the time. I keep one on my nightstand, one on my desk, one on the table next to my chair in the living room, I even have one in the […]

We all chipped in and did some cooking, which will provide me with recipes all week at onedadskitchen.com if you want […]


I took the weekend off from blogging to do some fun family things and we had a nice time all weekend, but now it’s back to blogging. First, I want to thank everyone who had comments about the story I am working on. If you want to check it out, you can see the first […]


Thanks to all the answers to yesterday’s question. it was fun to see what everyone would pick. In case you missed it, here was yesterday’s question: What is your favorite donut? Since yesterday was National Donut Day, I figured why not ask. it seems we have a national day for something just about every day, […]


I took another day off yesterday to relax with some friends, although the heat and my medication got the better of me for a little bit, we still had a very fun day (Thank you Hauser family!). Back on Sunday, I asked everyone this question: When you go out to a bar or restaurant, what […]
