More about the leader of the (Blue) Devils
As a follow-up to my prideful misery earlier this week, I had to share this article, written in 2006, about Coach “K” of the Duke Blue Devils. Read it and be inspired! Carolina Chick “B”

Isolated with the Devil(s)
April 6, 2010
As a North Carolina fan, I never would have planned this. Somehow my husband and I ended up in Durham, home of the Duke Blue Devils and Coach Mike Krzyzewski, on the day of the men’s national basketball championship. Carolina, who had won the title in 2009, did not even make the NCAA tournament this [...]

Fish-Hater Fridays- Succotash on the Southern Vegetable Plate
March 15, 2010
If you are a fish-hater like I am, consider the Southern vegetable plate for supper this Friday. Thanks to interstate transportation and the refrigeration/freezer process, vegetables that were once only sold and served in the summertime can now be enjoyed year round. Three to four vegetables make a great main dish, and you might be [...]
Say What?
March 3, 2010
The Chicks just returned from a lecture by Cardinal Walter Kasper- a friend of Joseph Ratzinger, an accomplished theologian, and a man dedicated to ecumenical dialogue with non-Catholics worldwide. His talk entitled “The Timeliness of Speaking of God” was brilliant, I think. I say that because, quite frankly, Chick A and I admitted to only [...]
Fish-Hater Fridays- Breakfast for Dinner!
March 2, 2010
It works every time here at our house- breakfast for dinner, that is. When the kids were young, we called it “Upside Down” day, when we would eat hot dogs for breakfast and pancakes for dinner. Now, we eat breakfast at night when the weather is really cold or when I can’t seem to get [...]
Fish-Hater Fridays- Black Bean Burritos
February 24, 2010
While I am not a fish-hater like Chick B, I don’t really like preparing and cooking fish at home. The whole experience just smells a little too “fishy” for me! So, if you are like me and prefer fish to be an “out to dinner” menu option, here is another great alternative to try on [...]
Fish-Hater Fridays
February 13, 2010
It’s almost Lent, and I have a problem. I hate seafood. It hasn’t always been this way, though. I have vivid memories as a child of eating salmon croquettes for supper. Also, our family shared a small cabin on a near-by lake with another family for part of my youth. There we often ate lots [...]
Who do we thank for this infusion of chocolate in February?
February 11, 2010
The Chicks love Valentine’s Day – mostly because of the chocolate and flowers. Who can resist an infusion of chocolate in the middle of a dreary, rainy southern winter? So in preparation for Valentine’s Day, we decided to do a little research to find out just who is responsible for those red heart-shaped boxes filled [...]
Southern, by the grace of God
February 3, 2010
You’ve heard the expression “I wasn’t born in the South, but I got here as fast as I could…” Well in the Catholic world, this saying may no longer apply only to people. Friend of the Chicks (FOC) Fr. David Dye, the pastor at Mary Our Queen Catholic Church in Norcross, GA has been doing [...]
