Marriage is like a peanut butter & jelly sandwich… the husband and wife are the peanut butter and jelly. They’re much better together than apart. God is the bread who holds it all together. When it’s done right, it’s a simple recipe that never goes out of style ~Author unknown Marriage is hard. It’s…
The classic King Cake is a traditional cake that is generally eaten in Louisiana during the season between 12 days after Christmas and Fat Tuesday. A King Cake is oval-shaped, like the pattern of a racetrack. Trademark decorations–sugars in the royal colors of purple (justice), green (faith), and gold (power)–honor the three kings who visited…
I decided to be informative today… sorry, sometimes it happens, since I did my homework, I thought I’d share what I found out. With Mardi Gras coming up this next week, I thought I’d ponder on what Cajun Cuisine was and what separates it from Creole… +x*+x*+x*+x*+ I sometimes have a very inquisitive mind, especially…

So I really didn’t mention this because it sucked, but Josie was stolen from us a couple weeks after we got her. The strangest part about that is she was gone for about a week, came back and was missing again the next day and we haven’t seen her since. We looked high and low…
In a way, I feel like Miller is part of an old stomping ground for me. I spent Friday’s of one semester and an entire semester 5-6 days per week in Miller back when I was in college. Why you may ask? Well, my degree is to be a High School Agriculture and Miller has…
