Pearl #3 ~ Not Every Dish is a Delicacy

Currently reading:  The Jefferson Key, by Steve Berry and 2666 (book 1 of 3), by Roberto Bolaño
Today's six-word memoir:  All things happen for a reason.

As legend has it, I was about two years old that fateful day.  I was with my dad, mom, and grandma in our backyard, enjoying what must have been a beautiful summer day.  I don't know if Dad was working in the garden, or what, but wherever he was, he discovered a great big juicy night crawler.  Now, night crawlers are pretty fascinating with their ability to change genders and grow back body parts that got cut off and multiple hearts and all.  Not that I knew any of that stuff back then.

Pearl #2 ~ Plaza Bib-Rambla

Listening to:  The clocks ticking in the silence

Today's six-word memoir:  Oh to walk Granada's streets again!

Looking through to Plaza Bib Rambla from The Alcaiceria 

When studying abroad in Granada, Spain, one of my favorite pastimes was wandering the streets, most of which were cobblestone, and all had this wonderfully uninterrupted rhythm of life happening as it does day in and day out.

Pearl #1 ~ Tim

Today's Six Word Memoir:  Live every moment to the fullest.
Listening to:  Smile at the Fishies, Tim (2002)

I always considered Tim a little brother, mostly by default because my sister and I grew up playing with him and his siblings and spent so much time at his house that they became an extension of our own family.  Being three years older than him, I was closer to his older brother and sister than to him, but he was always there, a piece that completed the puzzle.

Shout Out to My Peeps! . . . Really? I Just Wrote That?

First, I want to extend a HUGE thank you to all my amazing family and friends for your support!  Yesterday, when I was working on preparing this blog, there were about nine page views, most of which were my own collected over the last several months.  Today, the number was up to 122 between yesterday and this morning!
