To say that lighthouses are extremely amazing and simultaneously terrifying to me. I do so enjoy looking at them, even exploring the ones I can. The thought of living in one or just plain being in one during a storm? I shudder to think of it. Makes me sick to my stomach. National Lighthouse Day is one that gives me […]
I realize that there may be some who have never heard of a root beer float. If you are a fan of root beer and vanilla ice cream then you need to try this. The classic float only consists of a 12 oz. can of root beer and 1-2 scoops of vanilla ice cream. Oh, and let’s not forget the […]
We all wear them. We all have our favorites. We all have our codenames or slang words for them. Skivvies, undies, panties, tightie whities, boxers, knickers, briefs, drawers, BVD’s, loincloth, bloomers, britches, or jockeys. This list is endless.

Some of my favorite people hail from or moved to the Peach State. That’s why I chose to focus on National Georgia Day. There’s some great history in Georgia as well. Georgia is known for its peaches. For haunted Savannah. It’s home to the oldest state park in the nation. It’s also home to the largest single mass of granite […]
National Coloring Book Day; This has got to be one of the more fun National Day of’s for me. I tend to fancy coloring a might more than my seven-year-old does. That’s no exaggeration either. It’s comical to see her hanging MY colorings on her wall because she says, and I quote, “Momma, you’re an expert colorer and artist”. Oh, […]

Either because we are parents or because we have parents. #RespectforParentsDay is in recognition of our own parents, ourselves as parents, and even friends that we think are great parents.
