Food Trends For 2014 …Check These Out!   As we bid 2013 goodbye and usher in 2014, with the new year comes new food trends according to NPR's Kathy Gunst.    Apparently, 2013 was all about Southern cuisine from collard greens to cobbler, however, 2014 brings a fresh array of new foods you might find in your trendy restaurants:   1. Midwest cuisine - from corn to beef, stews to casseroles, the midwest will be featured on Food Network for their wholesome dishes   2. Local instead of organic - organic food from a large corporation is being questioned... the demand for local food from local farmers is growing   3. Vegetables are the new beef - vegetables are becoming the star of your plate with new ways to prepare cauliflower and kale     4. Alternative grains - these aren't your Momma's gr...

Christmas Traditions …The Christmas Tree Lights!   Have you ever wondered where it began and why we have Lights on The Christmas Tree?       I will not bore you with a lot of history, but to make it short and sweet ....   They were first put on the Christmas Trees long ago to symbolize what the sky must have looked like the night that Jesus was born in Bethlehem!   They began as candles and eventually turned into the lights we know and see today!   What a great way to start a Christmas tradition that will never fade away!   I hope this is your best ever!   MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Christmas Traditions …Buy A New Book and Read it During The Holidays!   I'm really big on Christmas Traditions, so this year I wanted to start a new one .... So ... I decided to go out just a few days before Christmas and purchase a new book and I also set a goal to read it during the Holidays!   You have to understand ... I'm not a big reader .....Aimee reads all the time and it's seems I always have an excuse ... So ... Recently I just completed my first book in years ... "The Secret Six" ... It was great and I now see what I've been missing all these years- so I thought this would be a great time to start a new family tradition!   On Saturday the 21st of December I went out and purchased "Killing Lincoln" by Bill O'Reilly ...I''m already in 100 pages and can't put it down!   It's Gre...

Christmas Traditions …It's a Great Time To See A New Movie! A special Christmas tradition is to always go see at least a couple of new movies right before of just after Christmas ....Aimee and I went to see Saving Mr. Banks yesterday for our first one ....Aimee got to pick this one ...mine will be the Hobbit in the next day or so! So here's our take on the movie ... It's about the author of Mary Poppins and the trouble Disney went through to get her story on screen for so many to love.  To transfer a story from paper to live characters takes a deeper understanding of each character and their contribution to the story.  This movie brought many in the theater to tears... including us! This is a great movie to see this holiday season - you never know whose life you will come into to "save"...

5 Days Before Christmas in Bristol TN~VA …12.20.2013 Ok ...here we go ...can you believe it ...it's only 5 days away! Here's one of my favorite decorations that happened to be a gift from a local business owner ...every time I would visit her store I would tell her that I would love to buy it if she ever decided to let it go ...Then this summer I went in to pick up a few things and she handed it over and said enjoy! She would not even let me pay her for it! Gwen's Herb Shop is a great local business ...stop in and say hi to her today! Merry Christmas!
