If I knew you were coming . . .

January 21, 2010 by admin

By Megan Parker, CV&T Lifestyle Columnist Word travels fast… especially in a small town like Irvine.  Last Friday I received a phone call at work from my mom, Sheila. Surprise! She was on her way to Kentucky for a visit and they were coming to my house. All because of my article I wrote a […]

Driving Miss Daisy, er Tish

January 21, 2010 by admin

  Recently I bought a new car. Well, it’s been over 10 years since I’ve had a new car and boy have things changed.   When I put the key in the ignition and turn it on, the dash lights up like a Christmas tree. I’ve never seen so many different colors of lights and […]

Snow dazed

January 14, 2010 by admin

  It’s funny how you age continually, but don’t realize it or admit to it until you find yourself upside down in a ditch full of snow.  This is how my dose of reality was given over this past week.  With the ground covered in snow and our driveway hill perfectly coated for sleigh riding […]

Kick it into soup gear

January 14, 2010 by admin

By Megan Parker, CV&T Lifestyles Columnist When the weather starts to turn cold I go into SOUP mode at the house. We have chili for a few nights, then vegetable soup, soup beans, potato soup… I could keep going but I think you get the picture.  This part of me had to come from my […]

Those were the days

January 14, 2010 by admin

  Enough of this foolish snow and wintery stuff—I’m ready for spring! When I see snow and ice I think about my childhood days.    The road in front of our house was a slight hill, but enough to sleigh ride on. The neighborhood kids would gather on that street and build a big bon […]

We better muffle our moos

January 7, 2010 by admin

  At a time when our nation is facing one crisis after another uncertainty lurks with every news report.  It seems every newspaper and magazine holds some new unseen danger that is sure to threaten the very existence of mankind.  As my family was spending time together on New Years Eve my brother was thumbing […]

New Year’s Resolutions? Not me!

January 7, 2010 by admin

By Megan Parker, CV&T Lifestyles Columnist Those dreaded New Year’s resolutions. Why do we do this to ourselves? I’ve been asking myself that question for a while now.  Don’t get me wrong, I did make a few but then I decided I wouldn’t call them my Resolutions. So, here is my “List of 10 Things […]

A bad hair day

January 7, 2010 by admin

  I don’t know what is wrong with my hair lately, but when I wake up in the morning it looks like a rat’s nest it is so matted. Well, maybe not a rat’s nest, I’ve never seen one of those, but more like a bird’s nest—stiff, matted, frizzy and feels like straw.    I […]

‘Auld Lang Syne’

December 31, 2009 by admin

‘Auld Lang Syne’

  Auld Lang Syne is a familiar and popular tune that is sung traditionally as the clock strikes twelve on New Year’s Eve.  The Scots title is translated into “Days Gone By” or “Long, Long Ago” and I always assumed it was a jovial tune meant to uplift the spirits.  It is one of those […]
