    music snack : you don’t know me

    Posted in: Music Snack, rAin

    Driving to work this morning it was cloudy, drizzly rain that would turn into larger rain spouts and back to drizzled mist. Looking out my office window, the conditions haven’t much improved as I believe the sun might be taking a day off here in the Lowcountry. I would rather be back home in bed but, such is life.

    Out of no where this song makes its way into the corners of my mind. I say corners because I couldn’t think of the song itself, only a few lyrics here and there and not even a full lyric at that. I searched when I got to work and immediately found what I had been trying to hum in the car. A perfect rainy day song for all of you to enjoy. And for those of you who aren’t watching the rain fall outside your window, keep this one in mind for when it does.

    Dear Daddy,

    The hardest thing I’ve ever had to do was learn how to live without you.

    I love you Pops, happy Heaven day.

    love and hugs from your youngest,

    Jennie Boo

    *and I hope you are keeping up your end of the bargain, as we both know I’m trying my hardest to keep up with mine! ;)

    music snack : straight no chaser

    Posted in: Music Snack, home & family

    This week I called on my Sista Sista to provide a little Musical Snack inspiration for you all.  I’m rather exhausted and my mind is near mush-like status. I knew she wouldn’t let me {or you} down, so without further ado – I give you:

    Straight No Chaser – You’re My Best Friend

    (if you have trouble viewing this video, please click here)

    It’s been quite the week for Ms. Jennie B and this song is just what I needed to hear to help me get through my first day back in Charleston { and back at the office!}.  I’ll catch you kids up in tomorrow’s post — and of course announce the charmed & dangerous give away winner!

    Happy Wednesday, lovies! Hope you all had a wonderful Holiday Weekend!•besos•

    Music Snack : six pack summer

    Posted in: Glory Days, Music Snack, home & family

    My 3rd favorite holiday is just around the corner (trumped only by Thanksgiving and Easter) — and the 4th of July wouldn’t be the 4th of July without sweet memories of spending summer days at Beech Lake, the BBQ cook off they used to have every year which ended with the fireworks off the barge, and radios sending out country music as loud as they could possibly go.

    I do love my small town raisin’ and occasional livin’ and wouldn’t change it for the world. I could go for a good dose of front porch sittin’ and have a little six pack summer fun right about now.

    Happy Wednesday lovies,
