My Opossum Encounter

We have been having the prettiest days this Fall so far.  The prayer gardens at Oral Roberts University are just beautiful.  To get a little quiet time, I went out to the prayer gardens recently to sit and relax.  I heard something behind me, so I turned around and there was a little animal walking [...]

D’Novo Lean Gourmet - New Tulsa Treat

My husband and I went to a new restaurant in Tulsa called D’Novo Lean Gourmet.  The whole point of the restaurant is to provide gourmet food without the calories.  Each meal is supposed to be under 500 calories, which isn’t too bad considering some of the smoothies sold at Jamba Juice have over 1,000 calories.

My sister

Austria Pictures
