June 19, 2019

Mr. Ken is a Jersey boy, but his family, including his mother and two brothers have moved to South Carolina. So now, instead of talking with Jersey accent, e.g. saying “dawg and cawl” for dog and call, they say “y’all.” Mr. Ken and I recently went for a visit. It was a lot of fun. […]

A quick post this week, nothing too deep. I am so excited! Coconut Cold Brew Coffee is back at Trader Joe’s! My favorite. This is just a summer thing. Oh happy days! What little things bring you joy?

Password blackhole

June 5, 2019

So I went to sign into my cvs.com account the other day. I got one of those dreaded messages, “Time to change your password. Click here to get sent a re-set link.” Darn it, I don’t want to change my password since my cvs one is one of the few I actually remember. But I […]

Big brother is watching!

This mysterious package showed up on our doorstep the other day. This box looks like a box for expensive men’s cologne. I was confused since I know Mr. Ken does not wear cologne. Mr. Ken quickly absconds upstairs with the box. I hear nothing more of it until the next day. I came downstairs and […]

Technically spring starts on March 22. That isn’t always true here in New England. We have been known to have snow then. Finally, our spring has arrived. Here are a few of the sights: 1. Hummingbirds. Do you know these tiny little creatures fly all the way from Maine to South America for the winter? […]

So I finally bought a Smart TV for my exercise room. A Smart TV means you can access the Internet from your TV. I wanted to be able to access the myriad of exercise videos on YouTube. As if my collection of 100’s of exercise DVDs wasn’t enough! The picture is crystal clear and big! […]

So the flights have been booked and the flat reserved. See, I am already turning into an Englishwoman, by saying flat, not apartment. Here is the next installment of our London adventures.     1. The mobile phone data black hole. Another random fact I remember is that one probably needs a different SIM card […]

It’s Peep time!

As Easter draws near, it is time for my annual Peeps post. As most of you know, I love Peeps almost as much as I love chipmunks. I searched far and wide to find some fun new Peeps pictures. 1. The famous Peep Mobile! Do you know in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, the home of Just Born, […]

Any tips for visiting London?

April 10, 2019

Mr. Ken and I are planning a trip to London, England this summer. Neither of us has ever been to England. Mr. Ken is the doer in our family and I am the planner. So I have been a busy little bee doing lots of research. I’ve been very fortunate to have several friends who […]

Ting, ting, ting

This sounds like a bell chiming doesn’t it? Well, it’s not. Rather it is the name of my new cellular network. Leave it to my dear Mr. Ken to find the best and cheapest network, along with the best smart phone. The phone is a Blu (android) and it does everything an iPhone does, except […]
