For the Love of A Horse

I took these a year or so ago of my daughter and her new horse, Kiger Lily. 
We love horses in my family and Katie was so happy to have "a horse of her own!"

All About Chaah!

I spent some time in a local coffee shop the other day called, The Coffee Block .
I ordered an Earl Grey tea and settled down in a chair.  Yummy huh? 

Well...yes but....as I got to talking to Sam, he offered to make up the shops specialty, Chaah.  It is the same as Chai but the word is Punjab rather than Hindi.  This recipe comes from northern India where the plant is grown.  He showed me how it is made and why it is SO good.  He makes it on the stove, no mixes, no additives, just the real thing.  It is the difference that makes the Coffee Block's Chaah so good!

Cajun Mardi Gras....Eunice Louisiana

English Translation

The Mardi Gras come from all around, all around the center of town.
They come by once per year, asking for charity.
Sometimes it's a sweet potato, a sweet potato or pork rinds.

The Mardi Gras are on a great journey, all around the center of town.
They come by once per year, asking for charity.
Sometimes it's a skinny chicken, or three or four corn cobs.

Captain, captain, wave your flag, let's go to another neighbor's.
Asking for charity for everyone who'll come join us later,
Everyone who'll come join us later at the gumbo tonight!

My World Tuesday

I am sorry I missed last Tuesday.  I was in Eunice, Louisiana celebrating Mardi Gras.  What a fantastic time I had!!!!  Highly recomend it.  It is not like New Orleans...it is very traditional. 
So here is what My World looked like on Fat Tuesday.....

My World Tuesday

I had coffee with a young woman whom I had not seen on a long while.  She was feeling down because of some bad news she had gotten that morning.  I felt honored to spend some time talking with her and encouraging her.  But she wasn't the only on who was encouraged and uplifted, I was too! 
That's what is great about friendship....it is symbiotic!
So that's my world....see what other worlds are like... www.showyourworld.blogspot.com
