Timpanogos Storytelling Festival

We've enjoyed Donald Davis & Dave Novak for free. These renown tellers shared their great story, With local groups at the nearby library. Visit Timp's Festival this weekend, a must see!!
Donald Davis, from North Carolina is one of my favorite story tellers and well known. His nasal sound and matter of fact way of telling his stories keep you laughing. The Timpanogos Storytelling Festival has provided many opportunities to hear their best tellers for free. Thank you for whetting our appetites with these great folks. We loved it so much often many years, we have gone to the whole event. Get there early!!

Better Together

What do you think about, "Better Together"? Cooperating, no matter the weather. Not clashing like a kid on a tether, But both joining in like oil and leather.
This morning when I saw this employee with his company shirt one that says, "Better Together" I had to take this photo. I should have done it a little sooner to get a nicer view or had him pose. It is wonderful how companies are creative in helping their employees choose to be safe, cooperate, make the best of their jobs and so forth. Positive statements like this help us all have better days, together.

Calorie Counter & Cool Companies

I'm counting calories and recording them, too. This isn't something I used to do. But my weight is inching up, who knew? We must keep track, me and the body crew!
I don't ever do this, but my phone ap helps me keep track. It's easy to enter the info into it after each meal. We were at Noodles & Company for dinner last night. I first ordered the Alfredo MontAmore', until I noticed it was 1350 calories! Yikes!! The highest of any on the menu. So I looked for a meal with less and spied, Bangkok Curry for only 550 calories. Changing my selection wasn't hard. Yes, I imagined the savory, succulent flavor of Alfredo, but loved the sweet veggie taste of the Curry. I'm grateful that Noodles & Company posted the calories, to help me keep on track.
Thank you restaurants and eateries that do this. It really does make a difference. Some people notice and adjust to help us eat healthy.
