Happy Easter

I hope each of you had a blessed Easter holiday this year. Our day was filled with fellowship and family. We enjoyed a nice meal and a slightly competitive game of Pit (I highly recommend this game). It's nice to be able to take time from our busy and hectic schedules to connect with friends and family. My wish is that you are able to reflect on your circumstances (whatever they may be) and find peace and joy in your life, even if things seem bleak. Have a pleasant Monday and I will see you soon.

April showers bring May flowers...


The weather around here has been very unpredictable lately. I have been itching to go on a hike so I can photograph the first wildflowers of Spring. Sadly, I haven't had the opportunity but that didn't stop me from making some funky flowers with my patients.

I bought the PT I work with a desk calendar with the hopes of converting him to an active environmentalist. Well, that didn't work but I managed to save the "days" and recycle the calendar pages. I had my patients randomly paint designs on several pages. Once the paint dried they cut various flower and leaf shapes. Add a little hot glue and you have yourself a colorful bouquet.

Happy birthday to me......





Last month I turned 38 years young and to celebrate the occasion we took a trip to Asheville........one of my absolute favorite places!!! We ate at Tupelo Honey (another favorite) and while we were there Dennis surprised me with a Tupelo Honey Cookbook. I must say.....those recipes rock!!! I loved the Tomato Pie recipe so much I thought I should share it with you. Enjoy!!
