Oh Humble Ground Hog

All eyes are on a famous rodent in Pennsylvania this morning to find out what Mother Nature has in store for us. When the ground hog emerges from his warm and cozy burrow, will he see his shadow and doom us all to more winter? Or will he grant us a reprieve from the cold and the gloom, and bring us an early Spring?

Christmas tree

This year I have put off getting a Christmas tree, I just plain have not been in the mood needed to get out the tree and all the decorations and setting the thing up. I guess as I get older i get more and more cranky and just plain mean. I mean if you do not like the fact that I do not have a Christmas tree set up go home and look at your own dam Christmas tree. My world is still in orbit and it will be the same the day after Christmas no matter if I put up a Christmas tree or not. I may set mine up on July 4th, kind of start a new tradition.

BBQ time

This year on the 4th of July we have decided to grill some ribs, this is not one of the items we cook on the grill very often. We bought a couple of racks of ribs for the grill, we are going to use two different marinades on the meat and we are having corn on the cob cooked on the grill and a salad. Not a huge meal but it will be great eating. We try to have the family over on most holidays and this is no exception. For the 6 year old grandson we will be cooking him some hot dogs he is not a huge fan of ribs. Happy July 4th to everyone, make it a safe holiday.
