Mr. Picky-eater’s birthday is today. He stayed home from work and made this. Another fund raiser for 4-H. He secretly loves it when I post these on my blog even though he protests the entire time! Thought I would put in a little humor with this one since we now officially look like Oliver and…

Farmer’s Market and Fins Up!
See all that? We purchased those at the Farmer’s Market Yesterday. It was great! We saw so much and even though it was hot and muggy, we strolled around the market while I took these pictures. Then we walked over to the Sweet –n—Sassy and had some donuts. Today is father’s day and I would…

Yard, Garage, Tag, Rummage, or a White Elephant Sale
Mr. Picky-eater has decided it is time to have our annual yard sale. People know our address now and anticipate it every year, or so they tell us. We have become so successful, my daughter and I wrote an eBook about it – The Garage Sale Guide to Greatness –. We do things very differently…
Fried Pickles a Southern Delicacy
Have you ever tried fried pickles? Mr. Picky-Eater loves them. They are widely available here in Oklahoma at many different venues, most notably Sonic. Sonic Drive-In was started in 1953 in Shawnee, Oklahoma – coincidentally where Brad Pitt was born and many family members still live – and now, Sonic is the largest drive in…

Dreamsicle Jelly
I remember my mom standing out by the side of the road, in her cat-eyes sunglasses waving down the Pinky-Dinky man. She would buy me anything I wanted as long as it didn’t cost more than a dime….yes, a dime! She always bought herself a push-up. Always. Mom loved those things, still does. As a…
