Nox’s Little Pink Belly

August 3, 2022 Yesterday, Bruce put the Missouri stickers on our USA maps. We also went to Lambert’s Cafe. It was really fun and if you enjoy Southern food, very good. Today, I am sitting with Nox. She was showing me her little pink belly and I wanted to share her nuttiness with you.

On to Sikeston, Missouri Along I-55

Southern Sweet Potato Waffles

This recipe is a modification of the waffle recipe from thestayathomechief.com. Bruce bought a chicken dinner that came with two sides. He got the sweet potatoes side since he knows I love sweet potatoes. The sweet potatoes were candied yams and way to sweet for me. Since I hate to waste food, I used them […]

Warfield Point Park in Mississippi

July 19, 2022 We visited Warfield Point Park in Mississippi, along the Mississippi River. We bought Nox along. The boardwalk was not usable and was blocked off with a No Thru Traffic sign on the side closest to the parking lot. The large sign was in sad shape. We walked over to the pavilion and […]
