Recipe Review
Today’s
Recipe and Location: Irish
Coffee
Found
in: The Pioneer Woman blog
Irish
Coffee came to the United States in 1952. The original recipe was created
between 1939 and 1945. According to history, the Irish used to add some Irish
whiskey to their tea, but tried something new and daring and added it to coffee
because Americans love, love, love their coffee. When I worked on the Capt.
Anderson Dinner Boat, many customers enjoyed an Irish Coffee after dinner.
Unfortunately,
I don’t like whiskey or coffee, so this is a big no for this Midwestern girl.
Gabbin’ About Gratitude
During
the school year, one of the things I am extremely thankful for are weekends. I
love my job and teaching, but it can be stressful, so the weekends are a time
to rejuvenate and catch my breath. Thank God for weekends.
Memory Musings
Games
were really important to our neighborhood. There were a lot of kids around and
games kept us busy for hours (which our parents loved!). One of the games we
played a lot was Blackhawk. I remember that we always played it in Stopka’s
side yard. They had the perfect yard for this game. I really don’t remember the
rules or anything, but I think it is like a version of tag, where teams line up
against each other and when someone yells Blackhawk the goal is to run past the
other team and into the safe zone without being tagged. Kathy, you are going to
have to tell me if that it right, because the actual game is a little fuzzy in
the memory.
