Fried Manchego Cheese

This recipe is a modification of Bobby Flay’s Baked Manchego with Yellow Pepper Romesco. Bobby didn’t bake the cheese, he fried it. I don’t know why the recipe had baked in the name. I wish I had taken a picture, as it was a beautiful dish, but with Bruce ready to eat it as soon […]

Rude Nox

July 4, 2022 One evening last week, we were walking Nox when a little light brown dog came running up. It was just a tad larger than Nox. The dogs sniffed each other and then the other dog took off running. Nox tried to follow, but her leash wouldn’t allow her to run off. Nox […]

Nox Ready for a Walk

July 3, 2022 After we got back from Winterville Mounds (https://retirementrvdream.com/2022/07/02/winterville-mounds-outside-of-greenville-ms/), we lazed about, reading and playing on the computer. When it was evening, Nox decided she needed to go for a walk. I put her harness on her and Bruce carried Nox down the steps. The sky was beautiful. We walked to the back […]

The museum was closed due to renovations. It is an interesting building, as it mimics a mound. There is a picnic area and a long pond at the font of the site. To get to the mounds, […]
