Blogging Experience

This was my first real experience with a continuous blog. I thought that it was really interesting and a great way to get to know some great people. We all knew that teaching was an interest but it was nice to talk about other passions in life. This experience made me realize that it is healthy to stay well rounded. Even though teaching is so important, it is not all I am. What did you think of your blogging experience?

FOOD

I will write about my other passion...FOOD. We had an amazing meal tonight! One of our best friends is a Chef "in training". He is working at Little House Bistro in Semmes. Let me just say how cool it is to have someone around that can make my favorite foods from scratch. Tonight we had chicken fettuccine with homemade alfredo sauce and baby asparagus tossed in garlic. Oh yes...the bread...focaccia that we dipped in olive oil and fresh herbs. It was wonderful! If you had a chef friend...what would you ask him to make for you?

"Name that Tune"

After my previous post about TV theme songs, my husband and I were talking about our favorites. He told me that he used to play a game with his friends called, "Name that Tune". A person says, I'm thinking of a song...can you guess it in 3 notes (or more)? The person hums it to the other person so he or she can guess. We played it last night with TV show theme songs. It was pretty fun!

TV Theme Songs

Most everyone loves to watch TV and we all have our favorite shows. Producers go out of their way to put a catchy song or tune to a great show. I'm willing to bet that most of you (if not all) could easily recall American Idol's theme song. Another show whose theme song has always stuck with me is the Beverly Hillbillies. Although I haven't seen that show in years, I can still sing every word to the song. What is your favorite theme song? Please share.

The Voice

The singers throughout The Voice competition did not "wow" me but I thought that the end result was good . The singers that remained were talented in their own way. The remaining contestants were Dia, Beverly, Javier, and Vicci. Each person really did possess a unique quality. I thought that Javier deserved to win the competition. His original song, Stitch by Stitch was catchy and memorable. Let me know what you think if you have been following the show.

Change in Thought

I know this blog is about music but I want to talk about food for a moment. Last Thursday I found out that I am 5 weeks pregnant. A few days later, the sickness started. I have had the hardest time eating and feeling sick at the same time. I have no taste for anything. Lately, I have been watching the food network because I love food. I will call my husband and ask him to pick up something that " I think" I want but when I begin eating it....it is a major let down. What is happening to my taste buds? I thought you were supposed to crave food when you are pregnant, not turn it down.

TV SHOW: The Voice

I would really like to know how everyone feels about the show The Voice. Initially, I was pretty excited about the show, but it really pales in comparison to American Idol this year. When the show started, it was advertised that these talents were amazing and would outshine the American Idol contestants. In my opinion, I do not feel that this is the case. I just laugh at all the positive comments that the judges give even to the worst performers. Where is the honesty? These judges have Grammys for crying out loud! Just let me know what you think.
