For the First Time…

LBJ | August 29, 2008

In the Garden of Eden, Adam and Eve were given strict instructions, by God, not to eat the fruit from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil.  Since they let curiosity and temptation get the best of them, Eve ate the fruit from the tree as did Adam.  There was a heavy price to pay because Adam and Eve [...]

Did you watch television last night?  If so, I hope you were tuned in when Senator Barack Obama accepted the Democratic nomination for President of the United States of America!  History was made.  I must admit, I did wipe a few tears from my eyes watching the Obama’s and the Biden’s celebrate after that perfect speech!  [...]

Thirsty Thursday

LBJ | August 28, 2008

Grab a straw, a comfortable chair and a need to have your thirst quenched!  It’s Thirsty Thursday! For me, one of the best beverages to sip, at any given time, is iced tea.  For some strange reason, Sweet Tea has been at the forefront of the iced tea world.  Well, I know why.  It’s because [...]

On the Grind

LBJ | August 26, 2008

Going out to eat has been a part of my life since I can remember.  In “A Chesapeake Feast” I shared that I was ordering lobster at the age of 3!  One thing that always fascinated me during our meals was the moment the waiter walked to the edge of our table holding a long narrow [...]
