Initially, I thought the book club I was joining was Steph Curry’s personal book club; that was not the case. The actual online book club is Literati, and Steph Curry is one of the book club’s “inspiring people” who recommend books. The first four books recommend by Steph Curry were true stories, and the last …
Welcome to Grandma’s Bistro, where meals are always made with love and served with a smile. I’ve shared my efforts to try new projects and my questionable progress, but I am successful in some areas. I am a home cook, and I have prepared more than a few meals in my lifetime, but everything was …
In my blog, “How Hard Can It Be?” I discussed that I have been trying new things. I started these projects hoping to relieve COVID-19 boredom and depression and challenge myself to learn something new. Even though I openly admit to not being the fastest squirrel in the tree, I want to update you on …
I’ve mentioned before that I joined Steph Curry’s book club, and I just finished the third book recommended by the club, A Team of Their Own by Seth Berkman. Before I discuss the book, I want to recap why I decided to join Steph Curry’s book club. I was not an athletic child growing up. …

Thanksgiving, a traditional holiday for a family gathering, was very different this year. Instead of our entire family gathering together, Jim and I and Teddy spent the day by ourselves. Focusing on what matters most, I am grateful that no one in my family has COVID-19. Dr. Teddy is enjoying the opportunity to relax! The …
I intended to start a new series on those crazy little ninja squirrels that are so active this time of year, but my world crashed with Candy’s loss. I will continue discussing the Ninja Squirrels at another point in time. I want to spend some time now sharing memories of Candy with you. Candy Candy …
Do you have an opinion on COVID-19 and masks, Dr. Teddy? Yes, I do. There are two known deterrents at this time — social distancing and masks. Mom was exposed to COVID-19 recently, and I know that she was scared. I make sure that mom always wears her mask whenever she goes anywhere, and her …

Thanks to …
