Ok, this time of year, I start buying plants...and I don't stop....mind you I have been growing seedlings in my baement all winter too. I especially over do it on peppers. There are so many varieties! I already have 7 tomato plants and 6 pepper plants....Don't even get me started on the herbs! then the next problem...I simply don't have the room. I ended up filling pots with vegetable instead of flowers and then I am a slave to watering them twice a day. You would think I would have learned by now. But the promise of whats to come is making me so anxious that I overdo it...oh well....there are worse things I suppose. |

So all that nice weather-see ya! We really did get spoiled huh? On one hand it was great to get a jump start on the season in my garden...now I want to continue. I have my seedlings in my mini greehouse, since they will freeze otherwise. I'm also having some decorative curbing installed around my front border and if it doesn't get warm they won't install. I'm dying to have it done. Oh well. At least its not snowing...Mothers Day is around the corner. Make mom feel special. |

There is no doubt in my mind that I can polish off a bag of Starburst jelly beans in one sitting. I'm not bragging. I just love them. I am going to be glad when Easter is over and the temptation is gone. Easter baking this weekend. Homemade deep dish peach pie and homemade carrot cake...yum yum |

I probably did it too early, but the weather has been so gorgeous, that I opened my ponds! I worked out in the yard two days straight! I am much further ahead than I usually am in the yard. Woo hoo! So bring on Thursdays at the Square, Drinks on my deck, walking Delaware Park....the list goes on and on! |

did you break your new years resolutions yet? Mine was to live a healthier life...I've made some strides....some I totally blew....(that one glass of wine thing gets me every time) I eat helthy food. lots of fruits and vegetable, whole grains and very few sweets...Portions-well, thats a work in progress...but then again isn't everything? so if you messed up your resolution...resolve today----don't wait for Jan 1 2013. |

I spent the better part of last week in South Beach...OMG beautiful weather, beaches and people. Food was the freshest and most innovative I've had in ages...Fun clothes, Sick ass cars-hundred thousand dollar cars-everybody's got em...Its a little harder as I get older to say-theres no place like home, especially in the cold weather...I wonder if that means I will end up a snow bird...Won't that ruffle a few feathers....Anyhow, I love my job and Buffalo 90% of the time...I don't even mind the snow...just now for as long as we have it...But I'm thinking of spring and how much I love the feeling of a new beginning....theres no place like home....theres no place like home...theres no place like home...theres no place....like home :) |

The weather hasn't really been conducive to hibernating, although I did a pretty good job this weekend....Tons of pillows and blankets on my couch, Hot tea before 5. Red wine after 5. Fat free potato chips and lots of naps. Who says Winter isn't fun in Buffalo, NY. And now back to reality, a 5 day work week (huh) and cleaning off my car. Oh and I actually had to put make up on...Rough....I'm still ready for a weekend snow storm that gives me every reason to not leave my house...Just schedule it for a weekend please! |

Bad hair today with this rain....temps gonna drop and its gonna get icy tonight...still not expecting much in the way of snow for the city...never ever thought I would be making a list of why it should snow big time...but here goes
1. I actually don't mind shoveling snow...its a crazy calorie burner and a chance to clear your head outside.
2. It looks pretty
3. I have 4 wheel drive
4. I can hibernate
5. I can cook comfort foods like chili and bake pies
6. sweaters!
7. because I live in Buffalo
hows that? don't be mad....:) |

So Christmas is over, New Years Eve has passed...Now what? Is the next event I look forward to a snowstorm? Snowstorms aren't the same for people in broadcasting as for everyone else. We HAVE to get to work to get you the information you need, news, traffic and of course WEATHER. Now curling up in our jammies with hot chocolate and an old movie. But, frankly, I'm good with that. Four wheel drive and fleece conquers all.....I am getting tons of gardening magazines. Which of course means I will seit thinking about the gardening I cannot do and order a thousand dollars worth of seeds and plants simply because they look pretty in the pictures....This year NO tomatillos....maybe edamame.... |

So I have two gifts to buy on my list....It was a relatively easy year for me to find gifts...Hubby is set, son-easy...coworkers-done...all sorted, wrapped and ready! But now I feel empty-I'm not frantic, I'm not worried-and now I don't feel like its Christmas because I'm not frantic....I think I like frantic...I think I like the deadline looming. I think I like the worry.
So as the holidays approach, I want to thank everyone who has been so awesome in my life and wish you all Merry Christmas! |
