A friend in Scotland

Vicki, #1 Creek Girl @1creekgirl (41395) • United States 13 Nov

I just called a friend in Scotland to wish her a happy birthday. Winnie and I were in 7th and 8th grades together in Jersey City, NJ. Those two years we were stationed there (my father was in the Coast Guard) were some of my very...

Thanksgiving is coming up fast!

Vicki, #1 Creek Girl @1creekgirl (41395) • United States 11 Nov

Here in the US, Thanksgiving is November 28. Many families have big dinners with friends and relatives. It's never been a big celebration with us because when the kids were married, they would go to inlaws for Thanksgiving, and...

The second American revolution?

Vicki, #1 Creek Girl @1creekgirl (41395) • United States 7 Nov

With the win of Donald Trump for President of the United States, I see some similarities to our first American revolution. These last four years have hurt so many Americans through inflation, an illegal invasion across our...

Ever made an Impossible pie?

Vicki, #1 Creek Girl @1creekgirl (41395) • United States 2 Nov

Today I made a pumpkin impossible pie which turned out yummy. It's called that because it's made without a crust. Dale can't eat gluten (such as pie crusts), so this is a way for him to enjoy a pie. The only difference is it...

Oil in pasta?

Vicki, #1 Creek Girl @1creekgirl (41395) • United States 24 Oct

The post by Snowy about using a spoon to stop water from boiling over in a pot of food made me wonder about this. I started pouring just a little bit of vegetable oil in a pot that's boiling pasta. It's supposed to keep the sauce...

Eventful two days coming up

Vicki, #1 Creek Girl @1creekgirl (41395) • United States 18 Oct

I'm looking forward to Monday. Well, the MRI of my brain isn't exciting, but not painful and I praise God for good insurance. It's because my cortisol and potassium levels are very low, so my Endocrinologist (I have a new...

Hearing aids from Costco?

Vicki, #1 Creek Girl @1creekgirl (41395) • United States 2 Oct

Have any of you ever bought hearing aids from Costco? I'm reading some good things about them. I need new ones, but they're so awfully expensive at my Audiologist's (between $4,000 and $7,000) for two. My hearing is almost at a...

An incredible answer to prayer

Vicki, #1 Creek Girl @1creekgirl (41395) • United States 19 Sep

A while back I had a blood test (it's called a liquid biopsy) that tests down into cellular DNA and shows more than most scans. It came back showing a few positive markers which were concerning. My Oncologist immediately ordered...

Worst fast food?

Vicki, #1 Creek Girl @1creekgirl (41395) • United States 13 Sep

In your opinion, what's the worst fast food place to you? We've always said any half way good fast food joint (relatively speaking) gets ruined when it comes to our town. Have no idea why. Wait, yes I do. It's the people who...

Coincidence or God..incidence?

Vicki, #1 Creek Girl @1creekgirl (41395) • United States 13 Aug

I know not everything in life is orchestrated by God, (life would be a whole lot different if it were!), but I see His Hand in so many areas of my life. For example, I've been more unsteady on my feet lately than ever and very...

Sort of MIA

Vicki, #1 Creek Girl @1creekgirl (41395) • United States 3 Aug

Hey, I 'm alive and relatively well. Our internet has been down for three weeks and the tech isn't coming out for two more weeks. I hate Brightspeed. It's been a nightmare dealing with them. It's their equipment that's the...

We recently ordered some digital copies of old VHS tapes and they were hilarious to watch! Our 34 year old granddaughter Kristin was four in the first one and she was so hyper and funny. I put on a pageant in the living room and...

A really strange happening!

Vicki, #1 Creek Girl @1creekgirl (41395) • United States 1 Jul

Yesterday was wonderful (even though I'm in pain off and on. I know, but that's for another post.) Had such a nice morning at church. Dale preached and I sang, then one of the ladies invited us to lunch at a local buffet. That...

I hope I can get a photo to load...it's a few tomatoes from our garden. There are probably 40 or more green ones on the vines, but unless we get some rain, I'll be frying green tomatoes. Which are yummy, but we really want some...

The lumbar ablation went well

Vicki, #1 Creek Girl @1creekgirl (41395) • United States 19 Jun

I was finally able to get the ablation procedure (burning the nerve endings in my lower spine) yesterday. It hurt, but it wasn't unbearable and only took about an hour and a half altogether. All went well, thank God, no...

Have you ever made hot dog chili?

Vicki, #1 Creek Girl @1creekgirl (41395) • United States 17 Jun

Our son in law grilled a few hot dogs Saturday to go with the ribs and they were pretty good. I actually wanted them more than the ribs. We love chili, mustard, and slaw on hot dogs. I had mustard, no slaw, but had bought a small...

Men no longer need to envy women's footwear

Vicki, #1 Creek Girl @1creekgirl (41395) • United States 10 Jun

I saw a man on TV and caught a glimpse of the red soles of his shoes (normal looking loafers). I thought, "Well, I wonder if those could possibly be Louboutins because of the red soles." I had no idea Christian Louboutin now...

I know this is hard to believe, but after having this pain for almost four weeks now, I fell Friday night. After preparations for bed, I stood up, took two steps, and fainted. I fell on carpet and thank God I didn't hit my head,...
