Tickled Red

Ocean Isle Beach Surf Off

September 15, 2011

*Warning: Two fun filled days crammed into one post-Enjoy! Five days ago we woke the boys up, long before the sun even had a inkling of peaking over the horizon and drove down the coast to another surf contest. This time it was for the First Annual Oyster Festival Surf Off. […]

In Remembrance

September 11, 2011

If tears could build a stairway and thoughts a memory lane I’d walk right up to heaven and bring you home again No Farewell words were spoken No time to say good-bye You were gone before I knew it And only God knows why. My heart’s still active in sadness And secret tears still flow […]

Good Morning! I hope that you’re up much later than we are and are easing your way into a fun filled weekend. Depending on what time it is, we are either on the road to Ocean Isle Beach, NC to enjoy the First Annual Oyster Festival Surf Off or we are already in the throws […]

Far From Home

During a storm we’re accustomed to the wind tossing old branches across the lawn.

Macadamia Nut Cream Scones-Pineapple Glaze

September 8, 2011

As y’all know I adore anything and everything about breakfast. For a self professed night owl this is a bit odd, I know. When you a marry a surfer though life changes. It becomes all about dawn patrols and falling asleep where you stand before your favorite late night show airs. Never mind staying awake […]

Taking Time To Enjoy The Beach

September 1, 2011

Ahhhh…I haven’t done this in forever. It has been some time since I’ve slipped into my holey jeans and strolled along the beach simply taking in my surroundings. No contests, no work, only the sounds of the shore break and seagulls crying. My little piggies have missed being tickled by the sand while cool waves […]

A Fund For Jennie Auction-Coral & Lichen Bowl

August 26, 2011

Tonight I am having a little bit of trouble writing this post. There is so much that needs to be done and preoccupying my mind, that the words keep swirling around in a jumble. Which I suppose is appropriate, seeing as how a giant swirling storm is the reason for my distraction. I happen to […]

Birthday Cake for My Girlfriends

August 20, 2011

Today is my birthday and usually I don’t mention it to anyone. Not because I have an issue getting older or anything but because I’m a lowkey kind of girl. Like Christmas, birthdays for me are more about kids, giving to others and sharing what you love… rather than being the center of attention. Now […]

Planting A Pineapple

August 18, 2011

Did y’all know that you can take this and turn it into… This? And that this will eventually produce… This? Yes, I’m talking about turning your average, ordinary grocery store pineapple into a tropical showpiece within your home. A plant that is not only impressive but will WOW! you with a succulent pineapple in 24 […]

Peanut Butter Pie-A Pie for Mikey

August 12, 2011

I have never met Mikey, nor have I ever had the pleasure of meeting his wife Jennie. Yet, I find myself choking back tears as I sit here writing this post. This post is not about perfect pictures, recipes or witty content. This is about precious moments and the strength of love. Jennie happens to write the […]
