I love our topics because it gives me a chance to research some of the questions I usually just blow off.  Like – What is the difference between an herbs and spices? In case you didn’t know, Herbs are the leafy and green part of the plant.  Spices are the parts of the plant that aren’t leafy,...

Don’t know when the term Mancations was first spoken but in the 2006 film The Break Up, Vince Vaughn made reference to it.  What is it? A male only vacation.  No women allowed. Since Bonnie and I are a bit challenged in this area we asked a few guys we know about Mancations.  I must tell you...

About one and one half hour drive south of Bordeaux is the small city of Cognac.  The French country side is gorgeous!  Yellow flowers, blossoming trees, farmhouses and fields.  I see most of it when my eyes are open and...
