Discoveries

I have found the most perfect morsel of heaven that anyone would want;  Starbucks Caramel Macchiato. 

What?  This have been around forever; what is she smoking?

Yes, my friends the Caramel Macchiato has been around forever and it is nothing new, nor is it new to me.  However the Starbucks Caramel Macchiato ICE CREAM is new to me and Starbucks has hit the nail on the head!  Three distinct flavors and when you get a bite of all three it is like an explosion in your mouth.  Absolutely divine!


In the past two weeks we have celebrated the aging of both my parents, PU#1 is 59 & PU#2 made it to 60.  We had a wonderful time celebrating.  For PU#1 I made creole shrimp and grits and they were fantastic.  Even Mother liked it and she doesn't like grits!  For PU#2 The whole gang was there, so Daddy roasted a chicken and I made salmon fillets stuffed with spinach and feta.  We also seared some wonderful Parmesan crusted scallops (my favorite!) and then we spent some time dancing around the living room.  The pics are blurry because I only had my phone but I think you will get the general idea of fun had by all.

In other news; one pretty little lady scored 2 goals in her last soccer game helping to lead the Fireflies to a 5-3 victory over whoever they were playing.


And last but not least it was Scooter's turn to stay with me this past weekend.  We went to the Space & Rocket Center, mainly because he wanted to, and we had an okay time.  The only major problem I had was that the place is not worth the price of admission (even with my corporate discount).  Most of the exhibits are the same ones that were displayed when we moved here in 1985.  Only one ride was open and the grounds and buildings look unkempt and rundown.  Having said that, we did enjoy the IMAX movies on the Hubble telescope and Scooter had a blast on the rock wall.
