Female professional football quarterback MJ Rooney has her eye on the prize, a record-breaking, championship season. Sure, it would be nice to have family support, but she believes in herself, and she has her teammates. That’s all she needs to win … until a scuffle at a baseball game sends her over the railing and onto the field with a concussion that threatens her season.

Dr. Tag Howard isn’t a baseball player like his brothers, but that doesn’t mean he can’t contribute to the game. He’s poised to become Major League Baseball’s go-to sports medicine doctor if he can rehabilitate Gold Glove Centerfielder Grey Kemmons, who happens to be his estranged brother. It’s a lot to take … until an unorthodox angel crashes into his life with a concussion and a fresh perspective.

MJ doesn’t need a man. She needs a championship ring. Getting messed up with a sexy, doctor and his family baggage isn’t going to get her there. But the attraction is undeniable, and there’s surprising freedom from expectations in each other’s arms … until Tag’s brothers want a reunion that requires him to own up to his ugly past, and MJ’s season teeters amidst the distractions. Would life apart be easier?

M.J. watched as people passed the open door to her exam room. Some looked in and smiled, but she couldn’t manage to muster the strength to smile back. In fact, she was just about to get up and close the door when a handsome man in a white coat passed. They made eye contact for a brief second before he disappeared in the same direction the nurse had.

But then he was back.

“You,” he said, smiling.

It was a wonderful smile, bright and white, balling his cheeks and squinting his eyes, defining his chin with a sexy v-shaped crease.

“Me?” M. J. questioned.

He stepped into the room, wearing the same smile along with a pale blue dress shirt and crisply pressed gray pants visible from the split in his white coat. “You don’t remember me, do you?”

“No.” One word was a better bet than letting her incredulity slip out amid a full sentence. If she’d met a man like that before, she’d certainly never forget him.

“You’re Miss Rooney, aren’t you? I examined you on the field after you fell.”

M. J.’s jaw dropped. “Oh,” she managed, despite the embarrassment heating her face. If she didn’t remember him, God only knew what she’d done or said during their exchange. She wasn’t exactly mealy-mouthed.

“How are you feeling?” He tilted his head and rolled his gaze over her, a hint of that smile lingering in his beautiful hazel eyes.

Physically? “Better.” Mentally? Like a fool, because she was trying to place him, but nothing that happened after she toppled over the railing and before Felicia arrived at the hospital made sense. And now she was gawking at this crazy-attractive man.

“How’d you end up at Fellows’ clinic?”

“Dr. Ridge.” She matched the tilt of his head with her head. “He’s my team physician.”

Dr. Sexy’s eyes widened. “Which team?”

“Clash,” she said without hesitation, maybe even a little too fiercely. She’d just been laughed at too many times to count.

When he chuckled, she wanted to slap him, but he looked so damn good doing it.

“Now it makes sense,” he said. “You told me you belonged on the field when I asked how you got there, and then you asked if you’d been sacked.”

He wasn’t laughing at the fact she played football? Interesting.

“Knock, knock.” Dr. Ridge stood in the doorway. “Go find your own patients,” he directed at Dr. Sexy. “Better yet, go get some pizza before I finish it off.”

Dr. Sexy smiled again as he nodded, exuding a nonchalance that had M. J.’s muscles bunching, bracing against the attraction.

“Miss Rooney,” he said. “It was nice to see you again.”

It was, wasn’t it? Even if she didn’t remember seeing him the first time.

My Review:

Arden is off and running with this brilliant new Kemmons Brothers novel. She presents her story in the same fluent and well written manner that we’ve come to know and love from her. Her descriptions and narrative provide the reader with a clear picture of what is going, drawing them into the pages of this captivating novel. This novel was both emotional and exciting. I don’t remember the last time that I laughed AND cried so much in the same story. At the same time this novel is exceptionally unique. Arden breaks the mold on many stereotypes, showing how just being yourself is what one should strive for.

The main characters in this novel were such captivating individuals. I love the way that Arden develops them. She does so little by little as they get to know one another. It’s quite intriguing to see these characters come to terms with who they are. You also get to see them realize that they don’t have to change to be what is expected of them. They still struggle with this, making them even more real and lovable, but the realization is there. Even though we’ve gotten to know the elder Kemmons brothers in previous novels we get to know their family dynamic and history much more intimately in this instalment. This adds an extra layer of depth to the story as a whole.

This is by far my favourite Kemmons Brothers novel yet. Possibly even my favourite novel by this author so far. I can’t wait to see what Arden comes up with next.

Policy engagement at Queen’s

Competition Policy after Brexit: Ending the One Stop Shop?

As the process of the UK's withdrawal from the EU continues, Professor Lee McGowan looks at the policy considerations and implications of the UK taking back control of competition policy.

Competition Policy after Brexit: Ending the One Stop Shop?

In a week when sudden concerns about the implications of the UK’s departure from EURATOM are finally picked up by the press, when leading pharmaceutical firms raise their concerns about conditions outside the EU and when the prevailing uncertainty and lack of clarity from the government has already led some backs and businesses to start moving staff away from London, we are starting to hear a new vocabulary about implementation periods, transitional arrangements and pragmatic responses. All such suggestions will add to an already febrile political atmosphere. With the clock to the UK’s departure ticking ever more loudly, many more policy considerations have yet to be understood, and few are more pressing than competition policy.

Competition policy provides the best (and the first) example of a genuine ‘supranational’ EU policy and the EU competition policy regime has established itself as one of the world’s leading antitrust regimes, alongside its American counterpart.

So little was heard during the referendum campaign about competition policy.  True, the technicalities and mechanics of both economic theory and legal analyses rarely make for dramatic reading for the wider public, but fewer policies have been more important from a consumer’s perspective. These include:

  • the imposition of record fines on hard-core cartels that have deliberately engaged in price fixing activities to the detriment of the consumer (in areas such as bathroom fittings, car parts, vitamins and canned mushrooms);
  • the decision to fine Google some €2.4 billion for abusing its dominant position for favouring its own shopping service;
  • the step to remove roaming charges and to push for lower charges when using credit cards;
  • a renewed commitment to further liberalising the telecommunications and energy sectors
  • efforts under existing EU state aid rules to assist schemes that boost competiveness and the environment, and include allowing the UK power station at Lynemouth to convert coal to biomass.

For many Brexiteers, however, the very design and architecture of the EU competition policy regime represents all the worst traits of the European project as decisions on cartels, monopolies, state aid and mergers are made by the European Commission (without any involvement from either the Council of the European Union or the European Parliament), and with all appeals being determined by the Court of Justice.

While the original EEC Treaty contained provisions for competition policy, a powerful EU regime only truly emerged in the 1980s on the back of a neo-liberal drive to enhance direct competition between businesses, to improve product quality and bring cheaper processes for consumers. The UK spearheaded such moves and overturned earlier notions of industrial policy and national state subsidized champions, and alongside Germany, strongly and successfully advocated for the establishment of a European regime for the supervision and control of mergers in 1989.

The UK’s contributions to the EU architecture have been considerable and were clearly evident again after 2000 in the reform of the merger control rules and the changes to the handling of abusive monopolies. As an integral member of the European Competition Network, the UK shares information on cases and is alerted to best practices across all other 27 national competition authorities.

Brexit provides the opportunity for Theresa May’s UK government to take back control of competition policy and to free the UK from the jurisdiction of the Court of Justice in Luxembourg, but is this a serious option for consideration and in the best interests of the UK?

If one of the government’s red lines is to escape the Court of Justice, there are really no other options but to leave the European Union. It is important to note that this position automatically rules out membership of the European Economic Area (EEA), where the existing EU competition rules would have to remain in play and the European Commission takes charge of merger investigations alongside the European Free Trade Association Surveillance Authority. It also makes the idea of a UK arrangement such as the Swiss/EU agreement on competition matters (signed in 2014) involving particularly close cooperation between Brussels and Bern, potentially problematic for Brexiteers.

Outside the EU, the UK’s voice would still be heard in for a such as the OECD, the World Trade Organisation (WTO) and the International Competition Network (ICN) and it would be in a position to enter into bilateral cooperation agreements with other countries such as United States and members of the Commonwealth such as Australia, Canada, New Zealand and South Africa. These may not compare in substance to the influence the UK has exerted on the European stage but are doable.

Outside the EU arena the UK Competition Act of 1998 remains in force. The UK is not expected to change its stance towards the idea of a competitive market and the efficient allocation of resources. It is to be expected that any Brexiteers (au fait with competition law) will seek the removal of section 60 of this Act that requires the UK to maintain consistency with the Court of Justice’s jurisdiction.  EU competition law would no longer be binding on the UK. This means that the EU treaty articles pertaining to carteIs, abusive monopolies and state aid and other legislation relating to mergers and liberalisation would no longer be applied in the UK. The enforcement of competition policy in the UK would become the sole responsibility of the Competition and Markets Authority.

Such a scenario allows the government to determine its own state aid rules but also presents an immediate problem for the UK business community as Brexit brings to an end the much vaunted one stop shop (especially for mergers) and essentially leaves firms facing two parallel competition regimes. This means that firms looking to merge in the UK with other EU players would be expected to submit two separate applications to Brussels and London. This translates into greater administrative costs for companies, raises uncertainty and even conflicting views between the two authorities which will subsequently impact on how the firms need to respond. For example, if a such a merger were approved in London but rejected in Brussels, the British company would find it difficult to trade in the EU.

Other questions also arise. Would existing cartel members be expected to pay fines twice if their anti-competitive activities were unearthed in both London and Brussels? How will Brexit impact on the existing leniency programmes that are in place to attract whistle-blowers? Do cartel members inform the UK or EU competition authorities and do they need to complete the paperwork twice? Currently, some UK businesses are protected by a number of block exemption (notably in the car industry) but If the UK parliament repeals the European Communities Act (1972) through the European Withdrawal Bill, British firms will no longer benefit from the existing block exemptions. There are also issues for practicing competition law specialists to consider as there are already signs that many British antitrust experts are requalifying in Ireland to be EU trained.

Competition policy raises another set of questions for the UK government to contemplate. The easiest and most pragmatic option would be membership of the EEA, but is this just too pragmatic and contentious?

The story of an Hour by Kate Chopin has a very profound meaning about the marriage institution. In this particular story, we can find that even though love is the element that keeps a couple together, however, the relation between Mr Brently Mallard and Mrs. Mallard was far to be a true love relationship. Mrs. Mallard waited all her life for something to happen, to feel free and to express herself all the irony in that relationship.

In Kate Chopins short story The Story of an Hour, there is much irony. The first irony discovered is in the way that Louise reacts to the news of the death of her husband, Brently Mallard. Before Louises reaction is revealed, Chopin indirectly noticed how the widow feels by describing the world according to her perception after the dreadful news. Louise stated not to hear the story as many women have heard the same; instead, she accepts it and goes to her room to be alone. Now the reader starts to see the world through Louises eyes, a world full of new and pure life. In her room, Louise fall gradually into a comfortable chair and looks out her window. Immediately, the image of comfort seems to hit an odd note. A person reading this story should question the use of this word comfortable and why Louise is not beating the furniture instead. Also, the newly widowed woman is looking out of the window and sees spring and all the new life it brings. The descriptions used now are as far away from death as possible. The delicious breath of rain...the notes of a distant song...countless sparrows were twittering...patches of blue sky.... All these are beautiful images of life; the reader is quite confused by this most unusual suggestion until Louises reaction is explained. The widow whispers, Free, free, free! Louise realizes that her husband had loved her, but she goes on to explain that as men and women often restrain each other, even if it is done with the best of intentions, they exert their own wills upon each other. She realized that although at times she had loved him, she has regained her freedom. Although this reaction is completely unexpected, the reader quickly accepts it because of Louises adequate explanation. She grows excited and begins to fantasize about living her life for herself. With this realization, she wishes that life might be long, and she feels like a goddess of Victory as she walks down the stairs. This is an eerie for shadowing for an even more unexpected ending. The reader has just accepted Louises reaction to her husbands death. When the most unexpected happens, her husband is actually alive and he enters the room shocking everyone, and Louise especially, as she is shocked to death. The irony continues though because the doctors say she died of joy, when the reader knows that she actually died because she had a glimpse of freedom and could not go back to living under her husbands will again. In the title, the story refers to that of Louises life. She lived in the true sense of the word, with the will and freedom to live for only one hour.

Irony indeed, is the way Mrs. Mallord was living all her marriage life. In the presence of Mr. Brently Mallord’s she seems to be having a normal marriage, however deep inside, ironically she expected something to happen and that is to be free. As soon as she heard that Mr Mallord was dead she jumped of joy. She felt released from the terror of the years she had been living next to Mr. Mallords; but ironically, “She loved him sometimes”Mrs Mallor was already in another world, a place full of joy and freedom with no pressure of any kind. She was dreaming of long years of happiness living by her when suddenly Mr. Brently came home He had been far from the accident” He is alive. Mrs. Mallord was in shock and soon after She died, ironically, she rather died in her new world of joy and freedom, than continue to live with Mr. Brently.

My Opinion

Kate Copan’s Story presents the reality of a marriage couple. Many families have been living for years similar to the story of Mrs. Brantly. Many people have different factors that keep them people together such as Children, financial status etc. but in reality, the love is gone and one of the partner’s continues living in the marriage, but deep inside he or she is waiting for that moment of freedom and joy to be able to reach that happiness they never reached during their marriage life.

Lonestar – Reloaded

Well I’m really excited!!

I will be getting some fabric soon to start a new Lonestar quilt.  I am pattern testing for a friend, so not only will I be using some hand dyed fabrics, but I will be putting it together per their pattern.  And all I can say is, the pattern is STUNNING!  So I will talk more about the specific project, etc once the pattern is published.  But will give you some sneak peaks on the fabric and construction as things progress.

I’m still on the job hunt, but have settled into the idea more.  I’m a worrier….so the first month was REALLY hard, now I’ve accepted it and am looking for new opportunities.  Other than that, I can’t wait to get back to the Quilting Studio and get some sewing done!

Happy Quilting!

Wonder Woman

Wonder Woman

So yesterday I was having a particularly though day.  My cat needed an emergency visit to the vet, and I’m still on the hunt for a new career opportunity.  Needless to say, my normal cheerful disposition has been slightly stressed as of late. So after getting back from the vet (Thank goodness it wasn’t anything life threatening for my cat name Chicken) I went back to work, and was just in a foul mood.  I hate being in limbo and not having a clear path forward, but it is what it is, and there isn’t anything more I can do to hurry the process along.

wwSo yesterday afternoon I get a text from my friends at The Fabric Patch and the text immediately turns my frown upside down.  It read “Wonder Woman is in the HOUSE!!”

Now I am a LONG time lover of Wonder Woman, ever since the series starring Lynda Carter aired.  Love, love, LOVE me some Wonder Woman.  So needless to say I have some of this fabric on it’s way to me.  Then I thought, what do I want to do with it…and I think I will make a travel bag.

Just amazing how you can be having a terrible day, and then a fond memory from your childhood and turn your day around.  So  big thank you to Cindi and Brianna at the Fabric Patch!  My day was made!   😀

Love the Lone Star!

Love the Lone Star!

Lone Star Quilts & Beyond by Jan Krentz

Lone Star Quilts & Beyond by Jan Krentz

I love a Lone Star in a quilt.

There is something about all those rings of color that I just love.  I’ve been getting a project together to make a Lone Star of my very own.  I asked friends and other quilters what technique they used, some used a template, some used a pre-printed interfacing.  Then a friend of mine told me to check out Jan Krentz’s book “Lone Star Quilts and Beyond” (which I purchased).  There is also a video on YouTube, and you could rent it for $4.  (Money well spent, GREAT companion to the book I believe it’s a hour and 40 minutes of instruction if memory serves me)

It’s an interesting technique.  I like it because it all makes perfect sense, and she’s very methodical about the process.  So I decided that is the technique I’m going to try.  So wish me luck!  And hopefully I will have some samples to show you soon!

Also a note that my blog will be quiet for a few days, as Karl and I are off to sunny Florida! We will be spending time with our “Philly Family” at Disney World with our god daughter Clare.  So I might post a photo or 2 but nothing quilt-related….unless I find one while I’m there.  😀

Happy Quilting!!

Well! I Never!

Okay, now this will set my self confidence back a bit. Hmpf...I can not imagine WHY Brian Dennehy would NOT want me to be in one of his plays or movies. Gee...just because I have never acted before, or don't have any real talent, or can't act my way out of a paper bag...gee. It is all so harsh...and unexpected. I will just have to gather my courage and move on with as much dignity as I can muster...
On that note, Grace and I will be drawing the name of our belated 300th post comment winner tomorrow evening! You all have outdone yourself with such sweet and funny and silly comments lately. Even when I forget to say it, I do thank each of you for visiting here and leaving a comment or two. Hey, even if you can't leave a comment, I LOVE that you are here!
Thank you from the bottom of my acting challenged heart...
Susie Q

TK Angels said...

Umm Should I boycott Brian's movies since he will not allow you to play even a bit part in his new movie? :) :0 :)

Just kidding. We will have to watch more Brian movies in the near future.

Take care and give kisses to all==even kipper and the cats :)

Andi said...

It’s with no hesitation AT ALL, that I dedicate my krush of the week to BANKS. Her album is very appropriately titled, ‘Goddess‘, and YES. JUST YES.

Banks is the type of beautiful that will smother your soul. She’s–eat your heart out–GORGEOUS. I mean, seriously…it’s just not fair.

When my ears were blessed with her track, ‘Begging For Thread’, it was all over. Her seductive tone, elegant style, and general mega-babeness had me krushin’ hard.

Banks recently performed ‘Begging for Thread’ on Letterman and watching it will definitely have you thinking, “I’m not worthy! I’m not worthy!”

P. S. Here’s to hoping she has a thing for chubby, jewish dudes that peaked in high school.

Above and Beyond

As i was going crazy taking pictures of perople all around me (check my last post), my eyes kind of fell on the framed certificate on Harish's Cube... the Macromedia Above and Beyond Award.

It invoked two emotions in me... one, the fact that we have all gone above and beyond the horizon called Macromedia and attained the Valhalla of our life. One journey is but a prelude to another... As Tennyson says (in Ulysses)

Come, my friends,
'Tis not too late to seek a newer world.
Push off, and sitting well in order smite
The sounding furrows; for my purpose holds
To sail beyond the sunset, and the baths
Of all the western stars, until I die.
It may be that the gulfs will wash us down:
It may be we shall touch the Happy Isles...

I tresure what was Macromedia and look beyond the horizon, to what is Adobe and to the exciting journey that is to come...

The other thought was of humility, one of respect for the work that he has done and the that "I'll be there someday"

Cheers Harish... for what you have achieved and I'll strive to reach there... Someday (I hope to read it as SOON)

Harish Sivaramakrishnan said...

You are already kicking maximum ass brother! U will have the award soon too! I have no doubts about that at all! Keep it high!!

Abdul said...

Right...You both doing great job...

BTW! Raghu, it seems you deleted the other post (about your visit to your college for flex sessions...)

The world view : Afghanistan

Since the time I wrote this post, the realism has started to dawn and it has started to look that we might be witnessing Bush term-three presidency. Well fine, one doesn't need to descend into such crass cynicism but how does one reconcile to the statement of General Petraeus that Iran can be bombed. The headline in the Daily Telegraph reads "Iran can be bombed says General Petraeus ". Then again if bombs were controlled by the Daily Telegraph, then many things wouldn't exist by now. God have mercy on our soul! One used to think in utter naivety that powers to be may at some time take a cue from Robert Fisk's column "Only thing we learn from history is that we never learn" in the Independent. Hypothetically, if Iran were to be bombed that would certainly not solve the problem, thus, sending in ground forces would be imperative. Would there be any possibility that Obama's election is declared technically invalid and the presidency handed over to McCain, after all he was the guy who once while campaigning in primaries burst into singing 'bomb bomb bomb Iran'. At least then General Petraeus will have a perfect match. I was wondering as a member of national Security Council has Hillary Clinton suspended disbelief of her disbelief or that was just to garner headlines as a member of senate committee.

The world view : Afghanistan

It is quite refreshing to see overall optimism and definitely a new sense of purpose on the world stage ever since Obama ascended Presidency of United States. The gratification stems from the fact that despite economic down turn one can see a glimmer of hope over the horizon. Down side of such a world view is that it can accompany complacency as the towering problems, regional imbalances and the wide spread chasm and deprivations cannot and will not disappear without being addressed squarely. The wrongs committed since time immemorial and aggravated and neglected during the Bush presidency due to lack of shear willingness or capacity to understand have created fragile situation which demand immediate genuine address. Unfortunately, there are no solutions, which can be pulled out by use of a magic wand but would require delicate hard work, willingness to understand and work towards assuaging the hurt sensibilities caused by years of ignorance and arrogance of powers to be. The region that requires immediate and without fail any attention is the conundrum in Afghanistan, which has has now almost overtaken much of polity and geography in Pakistan. One can be forgiven for being cynical about genuineness of the efforts being made, which brings the realization if problem is really understood. In the absence of basic and unbiased understanding no solution is going to have any lasting effect. Increase in the number of NATO troops in spring and a decrease in autumn, in an imitation of out of depth federal reserve and other world bankers in a desperate attempt to save capitalism, will definitely will not have any impact and will certainly not stop swelling of jihadi ranks. The impending implosion of Pakistan has its roots in its very creation and subsequent failure in establishment of a genuine political system and long unchecked periods of unbridled military regimes who did bidding for Western alliance up to the near end of cold war era. And the Western power while prophesying democracy had no scruples to deal with and encourage dictatorial military regimes in the country starting from Ayub Khan during to cold war era to Parvez Musharraf in the reign of war on terror. The parallel happenings in Afghanistan with deposition of King Zaheer in 1973 and subsequent violent changes of regimes until the ill conceived Soviet invasion in 1979 created a ground for the proxy battle between two super powers and both had no scruples in forwarding own interests at the cost of the fragile region including its impoverished population. The turmoil in Afghanistan spilled over to Pakistan in the form of refugees and the overlapping ethnic affinities in the frontier regions of two countries generated a common state of crisis, which regime in Pakistan set out to exploit to the hilt. The new found status as a front line state against spread of communism brought legitimacy to Zia-ul-Haq regime in Pakistan and opened the flood gate to Western and Middle Eastern aid in the form of cash and weaponry. Fighters of all hues, nationalists to fundamentalists, were all heavily rewarded for fight against soviet occupation and opium cultivation never was never a problem. In fact, the cash generated from the proceeds of drug pedaling was spent on arms for fight against Soviets. Westerner and Pakistan intelligence agencies joined hand in training jihadis. The scenario started unraveling after the collapse of soviet block and withdrawal of occupation force. Mujahideens and ward lords who had made profession out of their fight against communism, now turned on each and like never before a total chaos over took Kabul and rest of Afghanistan. This was the very opportune moment when west took its leave from the forsaken place and left it to fend itself.

Dorothy Burtz Fiedel,
Haunted Lancaster County Pennsylvania
(Science Press, 1994)

Lancaster County just isn't all that scary, unless you're frightened by overdevelopment or poor municipal planning.

But Dorothy Burtz Fiedel gives it a good effort, anyway, as she tries to scare up a few spooks in Haunted Lancaster County Pennsylvania. (The missing comma in the book's title is an immediate warning that this book was not well edited.)

Although Fiedel boasts of receiving a large number of local ghost stories in response to her call for submissions, this slim volume (only 77 pages, including acknowledgements, footnotes and an "about the author" blurb) is padded with several non-ghosty yarns, including Pennsylvania's one witch trial (which didn't take place in Lancaster County) and a possible UFO sighting.

The ghost stories that remain fall largely in the Columbia region of western Lancaster County, so much so I think Fiedel should have written a "Haunted Columbia" book and put all those unused submissions in a book about the greater county region.

One might wish this history-rich county had more ghost stories to tell, but the superstitious Celts who settled this land quickly moved westward, and the practical Germans who followed don't seem to have much truck with the supernatural. What's here, however, is presented in a lively, casual narrative that convinces readers that Fiedel enjoyed her subject -- and probably wished she had more exciting stories to share, too.

As the Philadelphia suburbs encroach further into Lancaster, perhaps a few of those Philly ghosts will come along for the lower cost of living and the manure-scented air. Perhaps then we can prevail on Fiedel to give this another go.

Randy Russell
& Janet Barnet,
Ghost Dogs
(Blair, 2001)

This is such a wonderful book, it is just precious (a word I rarely use). Ghost lovers, dog lovers, folktale lovers -- this is your book. The stories are wonderfully tongue-in-cheek, folksy tales that capture much of the oral traditions from whence they assuredly came.

This is in no way, I should say, a parapsychological study of ghosts; in a couple of stories, a ghost is only briefly mentioned. This is all about the story and the storytelling. We are treated to the internal thoughts of the characters, including the dogs, which might sound silly but works wonderfully. Seeing things from the eyes of the dogs provides a lot of unique perspectives and leads to many smiles and laughs, and it strikes me that we can learn more about human nature (at least the good part of it) from dogs than from many people.

My favorite stories involve heroic actions performed by beloved dogs for their masters and even for strangers. The dog who saved a child from getting run over by a car and who returns each Halloween to watch over trick-or-treaters is incredibly touching. There are also some sad, even heartbreaking aspects to some stories -- even the bravest, most loyal dogs sometimes pay the ultimate price for their devotion, and some are brutally and senselessly hurt and killed (as are other poor animals). Any dog lover will tell you that the bond between a dog and that dog's human is stronger than death; those who scoff at such a thing will not enjoy this book.

I know all dog lovers are wonderful wherever they live, but the fact that these stories take place in the South certainly made them much more meaningful to me as a Southerner. These are our stories; several of them come from places "just up the road a spell" from where I live. Each tale features a tidbit of Southern history I was not aware of. You certainly don't have to be a Southerner to enjoy this book, but those of us from Dixie will feel a little closer to these stories than others might. You may notice that the term "Civil War" is never used in these pages; old-timers (and some of us younger folks) know to refer to that tragic period as the War Between the States. There are a lot of little things like this that help make this book so special to me. As an added bonus, you will learn the difference between ghost dogs and dog ghosts, and you will even get to find out why dogs' lips are black and why dogs chase cats.

Finally, this book is a work of art. The care and effort that went into the production of this book deserve some kind of award. Besides the touching cover photo of a boy and his dog, there are old-time photos of men and women, girls and boys, blacks and whites and their dogs interspersed throughout the book. These pictures are not pictures of the dogs whose tales are told in these pages, but they give the book a wonderful, personal touch that evokes the kinds of feelings that are only understood by dog lovers the world over.

Fresh Ingredients with Blue Apron

Blue Apron

I had heard of Blue Apron before but never tried them.  Being able to team up with Blue Apron has changed that.  I am glad I had this opportunity.

Blue Apron sends them packaged really well so the food won't spoil.

This is the cold bag that the ingredients is in.

To keep the food cold and fresh they are packed with a large ice pack.

   When they say that everything you will need to make the meal in the box they mean it.  The only thing that isn't included is the oil if needed.

There was two meals included in the box which is enough for a 4 person meal.

The first night we had Fish Po' Boy Sandwiches with Cajun Sweet Potatoes & Remoulade.

We cut up the the sweet potatoes and placed them in a pan to bake, drizzled some oil on them and sprinkled the Cajun seasoning on them then baked them.  While they were baking we prepared the remoulade sauce and fish (catfish).

Once everything was completed we had a delicious meal that even the pickiest eaters in our family loved.  Everything think had a nice fresh taste to it not a frozen taste.

The next night we had Seasoned Steaks and Sage Butter with Cauliflower, Beet and Apple Hash.

The one item that took the longest, which was the first thing that we started was the hash.  The cauliflower, beets and apples were cut up to nice bite size pieces then cooked in a small amount of oil till tender and browned. Once that was completed and set aside we cooked the steaks.

The steaks were nice and tender and had a great taste to them.  The only thing that I was a little disappointed in was the uneven cuts of the meat.  Some were small and thin while others were thick and round.  Even with that each one came out nice and tasty.

Now that I have made you hungry let me give you some more thoughts on this subscription plan.

1. Taste, quality and freshness of the food is outstanding
2. Ease of making a great tasting and looking meal is outstanding
3. Portion size is outstanding
4. Instructions easy to follow is outstanding
5.  Steak cuts could be better in being more uniform
6.  Everything you need with the exception of oil, and seasonings - fabulous

I love that this subscription meal comes with everything that you need to make a fantastic meal but I think what would make it even better is if you could choose which sides that goes with your meat.  After all not everyone will like some of the sides like when we had the steak, not everyone like the hash because of the beets.  Also, the largest plan they have is for a 4 person plan which not every family has just 4 people.

Common Questions

Do you accommodate specific diets or allergies?

We accommodate a variety of dietary preferences - e.g. vegetarians, pescetarians, or if you don’t eat red meat, fish, shellfish, pork, or lamb - and personalize your menu each week based on your preferences. All of our boxes are assembled in the same processing facility, so we don't recommend ordering Blue Apron if you have a serious food allergy.

We deliver Tuesday - Friday in most locations, and select locations are eligible for Monday and Saturday deliveries. Delivery is always free.

Where do you deliver?

We deliver nationwide to most addresses. See if we deliver to you.

Where do you source your ingredients?

The quality and freshness of our ingredients are incredibly important to us, so we work directly with artisanal purveyors and hundreds of family-run farms that support sustainable practices.

Can I skip my delivery for a particular week?

Yes, you can skip any delivery before the weekly cutoff (6 days before your next delivery). Visit your account to manage your delivery schedule.

Do I need to be home to accept my delivery?

Our refrigerated boxes are packed with ice packs and insulated liners to ensure your ingredients will stay fresh for the full delivery day, even if you’re not at home to accept the delivery.

Overall I love this subscription plan.  It gives the busy family pre-planned meals that are easy to fix, healthy and taste great. This would make a great gift for someone you know that could use a little extra help during the week or during the Holidays when things are extremely hectic for most.

Sweet Tooth Sunday

This week on STS, an impossible to beat treat.

A favorite of mine, discovered during my last pregnancy. It had been many months since I'd indulged, but the heavenly bliss is back.

I'll admit, I've gone with one of the simplest treats of all, because I'm much more worn out than I should be from yesterday's race.

Who knew a sunburn would ramp up exhaustion? Blech. Live and learn.

So follow along closely, and hopefully you won't get lost.

Haagen-Dazs Peach Sorbet
(Or I suppose you could go with whatever your favorite flavor is. Pick your Poison.)

A spoon

Remove lid.
Insert Spoon.

As much.

as. you.

(by the way, it's really hard to take picture of yourself eating when using a big camera)

God Bless Haagen-Dazs.

Oh, and have you ever thought about sewing 'baby legs'? Kaitlyn has eczema on her legs and she does so much better when they're covered.. I have a couple of pairs of them but they're all pinks.. I need some other colors (purple, brown, etc). Let me know if you ever do so I can order some!!

~LL~ said... poison was Blue Bell Chocolate Chip....1/2 gallon per week per pregnancy. YUM!
