I am back from an easy trip to Wichita, KS and a few days in Savannah with my son, Nick, his fiancee, Jen & her three boys, Ethan-8, Clayton-6 & Trevor-5. This was my first time meeting the boys & I forgot how active little boys are. Great kids.

Dining experiences: Ate at the Green Mill Restaurant in the Holiday Inn in Wichita. Their dinner special was a half of a turkey club with fries for $5.99. What made this sandwich so special, the bread used was cranberry-Wonderful. In Savannah, we ate at a Longhorn Steak House-your average great meal and at Fiddler's Crab House down on the River Walk. I had a Caesar's Salad with blackened, grilled shrimp (lots of them, not the usual 4-6, I get in other restaurants) and Jen had fried oysters & fries. We sat outdoors on the 2nd floor patio overlooking the river, as a gentle breeze caressed us & most importantly-NO Humidity!

New within my blog: I am going to "try" and write a book review on at least one cookbook a day that I am currently selling on EBay on my listing-Valerie2901. So keep checking my blog everyday!
Cookbook Review: Samantha's Cookbook from The American Girls Collection. Activities from the past for girls of today. This is a peek at dining in the past with meals you can cook today. Enjoy the same gingerbread, ice cream snowballs and other treats Samantha loved in 1904. This cookbook is filled with full-color photographs, simple-to-follow recipes and elegant party plans. This book has been used, but it is in very good condition. Besides the great recipes, there are four different ideas for tea parties. I don't have a little girl, but it sounds like something I might want to do.
Remember to tell me if feed back on your EBay sales are important to you, because I am very bad about doing this otherwise.
That's all for now.
