Laquo; Pressing Reset. A Healthy Version of Paula Deen Banana Bread. The Good, the Bad and the Ugly; My History with English Bulldogs. On January 10, 2012. If you know me or have been a regular reader of my blog, you know that I love English Bulldogs. As you can see in this post, In Celebration of our Faithful Companions. I grew up with them. Bullies literally make me weak in the knees. There is nothing cuter than an English bulldog puppy. Nothing. Gracie as a baby. Hearts could not handle another one.

The Dance | Willingness to Grow
https://leeannontheverge.wordpress.com/2011/11/14/the-dance
Laquo; Catching My Breath. Oprah’s and My Favorite Things. On November 14, 2011. Did you know that the gentleman who wrote. He does. I actually met him once. What an incredibly powerful song. For your listening/viewing pleasure:. However, this post is not about that dance; it is instead about a routine that plays out twice daily in our house. Oprah’s grandma (my mom) says that Oprah has an eating disorder. And she may be right; Oprah is definitely a little full-figured. Maybe it is because ...Oprah: R...

Laquo; Blue Cheese Potato Soup. In Celebration of our Faithful Companions. On November 24, 2011. I am so thankful for my many blessings – including my husband (we are celebrating our twelfth anniversary this weekend), my parents, my family (including my husband’s amazing family) and my incredible friends. Despite this, I have really struggled with this Thanksgiving post as I have friends and acquaintances who are alone and having difficulties this holiday season. My grandparents had a beloved Boxer named...

Laquo; Oprah’s and My Favorite Things. In Celebration of our Faithful Companions. Blue Cheese Potato Soup. On November 22, 2011.

The Importance of Kindness | Willingness to Grow
https://leeannontheverge.wordpress.com/2011/12/17/the-importance-of-kindness
Laquo; Surviving December. The Importance of Kindness. On December 17, 2011. It is the trait that I most admire in people. My husband’s kindness was what first attracted me to him. It is how I want to be treated by others. Ironically, I think people being unkind to me at various times has made me a kinder person. For the most part, I have been very fortunate to have kind people in my life. Last week, I was the recipient of kindnesses that overwhelmed me. And again I realized how tremendous the effect...

Laquo; The Dance. Blue Cheese Potato Soup. Oprah’s and My Favorite Things. On November 17, 2011. Fall is in the air, even in Savannah (kind of, sort of – it is eighty degrees today). For many of you, this may evoke thoughts of changing colors in the leaves, pumpkins, crisp clean air and winter clothing. Presenting – the first annual. Oprah’s and My Favorite Things. Am I going to have to get up for this? Oprah Aldridge loves snacks – she will pretty much eat anything. Because of her propensity (...My Opra...

Surviving December | Willingness to Grow
https://leeannontheverge.wordpress.com/2011/12/06/surviving-december
Laquo; In Celebration of our Faithful Companions. The Importance of Kindness. On December 6, 2011. December is somewhat tortuous for me. The type of law I practice (commercial finance) is extremely busy around year-end. Everyone, for various reasons, wants to get the deal closed before January 1st. While the poor economy has significantly slowed down the volume of my work (which is not necessarily a bad thing), there is still a year-end push. 2 Don’t sweat the small stuff – and remember that ...5 It̵...

Pressing Reset | Willingness to Grow
https://leeannontheverge.wordpress.com/2011/12/28/pressing-reset
Laquo; The Importance of Kindness. The Good, the Bad and the Ugly; My History with English Bulldogs. On December 28, 2011. That is what I am doing this last week of 2011 – pressing my reset button. This was a busy and stressful year-end for me, and when I get stressed I tend to develop some unhealthy habits. I have taken this week off and am attempting to rest, relax and regain my perspective. We are in the mountains and received a light dusting of snow last night. And then even closer…. Happy that you a...
