Do the Dew

I’ve been turning to Moountain Dew an awful lot lately. I don’t really like sodas, especially any of the dark sodas like Coke and Pepsi. I guess I just lost my taste for them. But Mountain Dew seems to kill the thirst and it’s been so hot this week (every day in the 90’s and up!) that I have felt dehydrated every day. A girl can only drink so much water. So I’ve tried all the different flavors of Mountain Dew. I think I like the Voltage flavor best.

Mother’s Day Brunch

There is a little coffee shop in Franklin that I stop by at least once a week. I just love their caramel coffee and it is much less expensive than Starbucks. So when I stopped in last Thursday I noticed a little sign announcing a Mother’s Day brunch. Since this isn’t really a full service restaurant, I was surprised. But it turns out that one of the owners is a retired chef, and once a year, on Mother’s Day, he likes to cook up a huge special brunch menu for his wife and daughter, and they decided to offer the same delicious spread to their customers. I thought that was an awesome story.

Joyous Easter

Although I won’t be spending the day with family, I am determined to relax and enjoy my Easter. I considered going to a restaurant to eat a nice Easter brunch, but I realized that I enjoy cooking some things and would like to spend the time in the kitchen. I boiled a half dozen eggs and will color them bright blue and green and then paint them with markers just for fun. I guess I can eat a hard boiled egg each day this week and not crash my cholesterol numbers too badly. What is Easter without Easter eggs?
