I am on "staycation" this week! Much needed time off (2 years since substantial and true time off) and looking forward to a week of not really doing much at all. Inflation and high gas prices have really forced us as well as just about everyone else to evaluate how we do thing so we are staying close to home. Maybe we can get a little work around the house taken care of?
Last night, we went to the local AA pro baseball game and it was very cool. It is a fun time and not really that expensive. Our team is not all that great right now but we still root for them all of the same!
Today, we went to WoofStock, a festival celebrating "Mans Best Friend" in downtown Roanoke. Every breed of dog you can think of every where you look. Monies collected go to a good cause hopefully and we did take our little pooch down there for some fun in the sun. Elmo seemed pretty disinterested and like some other dogs, would of liked to stay home in the AC!!
I am teaching a class on Chocolate soon at my church. It is free to anyone who wishes to attend but we do ask that people coming help provide product so I do not have to cover all of the expenses. A donation can be made if you like but it is not required. As soon as we have the date set, I will let everyone know here and on my web site. We are going to cover some hopefully interesting topics like the history of chocolate, and we will make some savory as well as sweet creations. I am going to keep everything kind of basic and simple. Yes, I did say "Savory" chocolate dishes so we will see how that goes.
You can catch me on the Weekend Diner on June 8 at 8:00 on WDBJ 7 right here in Roanoke. Nothing much more of consequence to speak about for now. Have some fun and if you are not on vacation, think about me and I will try and work in a little relaxation for you as well!
