I love the bunny figurine behind that gorgeous tulip.

Re: How the Irish Celebrate St Patrick's Day
If you have Irish ancestry but no Catholics, your Irish ancestry is probably Scotch-Irish, from the north (think Belfast). Several centuries ago the English imported a lot of Scottish Protestants (Presbyterian mostly) to the north of Ireland, a sort of colonization project. That's why even today, th...

Re: Easter Bunny Lore: What's your favorite version?
Another movie of this type I own but rarely watch is Quo Vadis. I saw the movie on tv as a girl and liked it, though I'm not sure it's aged especially well. I believe it won an Oscar or two back in the day, though. Anyway, when I was about 15 I read the novel on which it was based and loved it. I'm ...

Re: G Fuel
So is G Fuel a type of soft drink, or perhaps an energy drink? I've never heard of it.

Re: Are y'all ready for Easter?
Well, we are hyper involved at our church. My husband and I both sing in the choir, so we started the week with two services on Sunday. Then we had a Weds rehearsal. Last night was Maundy Thursday, so, another performance. Tonight is Good Friday, so we'll sing again. On Easter itself there are three...

Re: Easter Bunny Lore: What's your favorite version?
I just watched Passion of the Christ this morning. It's my Good Friday movie. That said, lots of Christians don't like that film because it is truly horrific. I think, though, that if I'm going to claim to be Christian, I really should watch it once a year. No matter how bad it gets, it's probably n...

Re: Catching up
I haven't seen any of the newer Ghostbusters movies, but I've heard that the more recent ones (not the lady cast) are pretty good. I'm certainly hoping my older son can find his SO while I'm still young enough to enjoy grandchildren. For that matter, I wish they all would. You reach a point with adu...

Re: Catching up
So great to hear from you, HH, and many congrats to your grandaunt on her birthday! I've never been to Universal, but everybody around here says it's superior to Disney World. I haven't been to Disney World since before I was married, so I can't talk about what it might be like now. Each of my kids ...

Re: Red Boiling Springs, Tennessee
Lol. I'd be very surprised if that were true. It would be nice for the folks in that town if it were, though.

Oh, how pretty! Is that pink dogwood? Probably not. I believe it has too many petals. It's very pretty, though.

Red Boiling Springs, Tennessee
There is a town in Macon County, Tennessee, called Red Boiling Springs. The county is on the border with Kentucky. For about a century, from the early 1800s to the early 1900s, it was a resort town for people who wished to take mineral waters and mineral baths for their health. At one time it had ov...
