Posted on March 9, 2013 by Jacky Hackett

St.Patrick’s Day comes early to our parts, it kicks off today with the local parade.  One of the highlights of the year!  It has been a busy few weeks, months, and I am heading out of town Sunday night so I haven’t had much time prepare.  If I had more time I would be in…

Pardon me while I get this all out of my brain, lots of random goodness… We are all caught up on our current TV shows now that Downton Abbey wrapped up for the season.  Anyone watching House of Cards on Netflix?  Good stuff so far, about half way through all the episodes. Lots of great…

Top Chef Day & Night

Posted on February 28, 2013March 1, 2013 by Jacky Hackett

Anyone watch Top Chef this season?  I swore off the show after season 6, but for lack of anything else to watch on Wednesday evenings I got sucked back in this season.  I was happy with the results last night, no spoilers!  Though really I would have been happy if either of the chefs won. …

Can you blame me?

Posted on February 17, 2013April 7, 2014 by Jacky Hackett

I mean, how could I not? It was just too easy and fun. I mean seriously, how awesome is that… I just wish I had done it earlier this month for the cake walk at the school carnival.  The carnival is one of the best days of the year.  Cake walk anyone?  Though my daughter…

Halfway Done

Posted on February 14, 2013April 7, 2014 by Jacky Hackett
