The Owl

The cool owl

We go exploring a lot and take pictures of all the cool things we find.

This day was certainly not lacking anything cool. After having breakfast out, feeding the ducks and geese at the park we were driving down a back road and saw this guy standing in the middle of the road. He was so beautiful and did not appear to be hurt or scared of us for that matter. When Scott went to try to pick him he rotated his head all the way to his back following Scott’s progress. That could intimidate anyone.

So with the owl distracted, I got a thick, quilted baby blanket from the far and put it over the owl and moved him to the side of the road after two attempts. I did not want to hold him to tightly in case something was injured.

He must not have been too badly hurt because after we got him to the side of the road he flew away.

I think getting to be so close to him made everyone’s day.

The Taste of Chicago-In Georgia

I have been living in Georgia now for almost fifteen years but still yearn for tastes from my childhood. Being an army brat could make that confusing but the place I spent the most time was the Chicago area. I remember th food fondly, right down to browns chicken where I would get an order fried mushrooms and chicken livers. You could not ask for a better meal.

I know it seems silly that I should remember fondly Brown’s chicken but it as a place my dad used to take me to before the divorce and one of the very last times I saw him. While my mom might think it was not very sentimental of him to take me there during our visits and maybe she is right, I will never knock it because I loved going there with both her and him.

Today my home-schooled son had CRCT testing in Douglasville so Scott, Ana and I stopped in this little place that adversed Vienna Sausages, We took him to get something to eat prior to going and knew he probably would not like this place because he is not a meat eater which is why we waited. Well now I want to take the whole family.

The place in run by a lady from Chicago who, like me seriously missed all the good food they had there and you could not drive a mile in the burbs with out seeing a little hole in the wall advertising Vienna sausages. She not only brought sausages but Italian beef , hot dogs pizza puffs, Chicago style fried mushroom and so much more here to Georgia!

Not only that but they have family night, ladies night, comedy night as well as jazz and soul food night.

The little place is called The Taste and is located on the main drag in downtown Douglasville. If you want authentic Chicago style food it is the place to be!
