Find Joy In Life's Grand Adventures

---

This old gal…

Is all about the Grand Adventure…retirement…relocation…downsizing…winter in Texas…husband health scares…current cat mom…two cats…that aren’t ours…and now…this eating healthy cholesterol thing…gonna deem it…a Grand Adventure…make it fun…put a positive spin on it…

Cuz this old gal…loves her red meat…fried foods…sweets of all kinds…but in the land of Grand Adventure…opening a menu…offers a whole new world…look for options…never considered before…want a patty melt…in Grand Adventureland…salmon rules…or maybe the shrimp bowl…train the palate to crave new things…

Been a few surprises tho…found that not all salmon…is created equally…can’t judge the fancy marinated salmon filets…by that prepackaged frozen thing you once bought from the Schwans man…and then…there’s sardines…dusting off that memory tamped down these last 55 years…little me…that father of mine…sardines on saltines…

That husband of mine…chef in his own right…happy to whip up a can…chop it up…mix it with onion…taste testing brands…fancy vs cheap…laughing as we do…what’s more fun…than a Grand Adventure…featuring sardines…a stinky little throwback from days gone by…rearing it’s oily little head…ready to help save…this old gal’s life…

Nothing…Nada…Not a thing…
​
And this husband of mine…agrees…
