This little local place is called the Buffalo Diner. Its on Rt. 62 in Buffalo, WV across from the high school. Its located in a converted convenience store/gas station. Their official address is 3216 Buffalo Road.<div><br /></div><div>I just want to start out by saying that this evening I enjoyed one of the best racks of ribs there that I have ever eaten. They were to die for!!!! The texture and the balance of smoky and sweet was perfect! My sister had the honey garlic boneless chicken and she was equally as pleased!!!!</div><div><br /></div><div>We followed this meal up with desert. I had carrot cake and she had chocolate cake...very soft texture, and very moist. Was told by personable young man at the register that the owners wife made the cakes.</div><div><br /></div><div>We met the executive chef/owner Bill Desimone, he personally went from table to table making sure everyone was satisfied with the quality of their food... satisfied is an understatement! Bill even brought samples to our table of a smokey spicy cold shrimp... ummm also yummy!!!</div><div><br /></div><div>Anyone who travels through this area should stop in and try their food!!! Today they had rainbow trout on the menu, fresh rainbow trout!!!! Wow!</div><div><br /></div><div>If you would like to inquire about the restaurant or the catering they do email Bill at buffalo.diner@yahoo.com. I know we will return over and over again and we will check out their catering for any event we may have in the future!!!</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/299072864328776059-9158591989922400572?l=countrygatheringswv.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Debhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02892673915045624273noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-299072864328776059.post-71246020492209075992009-07-08T18:45:00.000-07:002009-07-08T19:03:00.535-07:00<div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">This past weekend was a marvelous Open House!

I still break into tears just thinking of him, or hearing a certain song on the radio, or seeing something blue and gold or....the list of reasons goes on and on.<div><br /></div><div>The tears come all to freely and unexpectedly and I wonder when that will cease or slow.... and Fathers Day, this first one without him is really tough,almost overwhelming and even seeing the advertisements on <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">tv</span> about Fathers Day makes me sad and so envious of those who still have their Dad to celebrate with.<div><br /></div><div>My Dad was an amazing Father... amazing!!! He always made my sister and I feel important and that he had all the time in the world to spend with us, when in reality he sometimes worked multiple jobs to keep our family fed, helped raise many other kids in our household, some related some not and spent the better part of 50+ years of his life coaching other young people. </div><div><br /></div><div>I cant fully comprehend all the things my Dad (and Mom) went through to raise my sister and I, to make ends meet, to deal with incredible stresses and strains, to instill morals and values in us, and I am humbled and awestruck by it. </div><div><br /></div><div>My Dad loved my mother with a passion I can only hope to see one day after many years spent with my own new Hubs. Mom always knew how much he loved her and never ever had a doubt from very early on in their relationship. My earliest memories of them together involve him caressing her shoulder as he passed in the hall, holding her hand any time he had the chance and even winking at her when she caught his eye and didn't know we were looking! (in fact they were so in love that you could never get a picture of just one of them alone, as indicated by the picture I included above.) They were blessed with 52 years together!</div><div><br /></div><div>I could blog all day and into the night and still be unable to tell you just how much my father meant to me and how much it hurts right now to know I will never hear his voice again on this earth and I must wait until my Heavenly Father calls me home to see Dad again. </div><div><br /></div><div>If I could share anything with you who still have your father I would say don't miss any chance to say I love you, don't miss any chance to spend time with him because the terrible thing about life is you just don't know when the good Lord will say...ITS TIME.... and no matter how they go or when they go... it will be to soon!</div><div><br /></div><div>Happy Fathers Day.....</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/299072864328776059-6408340674700762078?l=countrygatheringswv.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Debhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02892673915045624273noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-299072864328776059.post-90593274946071844272009-06-13T18:25:00.000-07:002009-06-13T18:48:42.753-07:00<div align="center"> This week two special painting projects were finished up in the shop by my sister Terry. The two vintage all white cabinets were brought in by Sherry, a longtime friend and customer. The cabinets had been in storage in her basement for sometime and had once belonged to her mother. </div><div align="center"> </div><div align="center">One was a white painted chimney style cabinet, and the other white cabinet was larger and had a pair of glass doors on the top above a drawer and two solid doors on the bottom. </div><div align="center"> </div><div align="center">Sherry wanted to have them finished in such a way that she could give them their well deserved pride of place in her home. So she asked my sister if she would tackle the job of painting, sanding, staining and priming them. Terry said yes. </div><div align="center"> </div><div align="center">The pictures that follow show the cabinets nearing completion and finished. My sister spent a lot of hours and elbow grease on them over a few week period, and they were absolutely beautiful when they were completed. They both had a cranberry under glaze, prim treatment, hand applied stars , refinished hardware and an oil rubbed finish when completed. </div><div align="center"> </div><div align="center">Every customer who was privileged to see them wanted to take them home before Sherry picked them up.</div><br /><div align="center">Sherry was so thrilled when she came to pick them up that we all got a bit teary eyed, and her generosity in paying for the commissioned work was overwhelming! She went above and beyond what we priced the job for and ever expected to receive. It's unlikely that we forget her act of kindness for years to come! </div><div align="center"> </div><div align="center">We hope to see completed pictures of the cabinets once they find their new place in her home.</div><div align="center"> </div><div align="center">See what you think about the multiple step finishes they both received.</div><div align="center"> </div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_D2ztZ5EPH4Q/SjRSU4azclI/AAAAAAAABxw/pJNRBogHQbU/s1600-h/K800_IMG_3790.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5346989176291291730" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 150px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_D2ztZ5EPH4Q/SjRSU4azclI/AAAAAAAABxw/pJNRBogHQbU/s200/K800_IMG_3790.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_D2ztZ5EPH4Q/SjRSUjgzo2I/AAAAAAAABxo/XtFgrz2uD4I/s1600-h/K800_IMG_3791.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5346989170679325538" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 150px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_D2ztZ5EPH4Q/SjRSUjgzo2I/AAAAAAAABxo/XtFgrz2uD4I/s200/K800_IMG_3791.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_D2ztZ5EPH4Q/SjRSUgpdOGI/AAAAAAAABxg/Vii7jYnwniU/s1600-h/K800_IMG_3889.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5346989169910298722" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 150px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_D2ztZ5EPH4Q/SjRSUgpdOGI/AAAAAAAABxg/Vii7jYnwniU/s200/K800_IMG_3889.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_D2ztZ5EPH4Q/SjRSUfvOCRI/AAAAAAAABxY/J2SmQnsNHXY/s1600-h/K800_IMG_3905.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5346989169666033938" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 150px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_D2ztZ5EPH4Q/SjRSUfvOCRI/AAAAAAAABxY/J2SmQnsNHXY/s200/K800_IMG_3905.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5346989182364745106" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 150px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_D2ztZ5EPH4Q/SjRSVPC0_ZI/AAAAAAAABx4/8yP252jjFnQ/s200/IMG_3907.JPG" border="0" /><br />Awesome job Terry!

I had been scheduled by my doc for some routine outpatient surgery coming up this Friday. The doc wanted to make sure cardiology would give me an all clear since I did lose my Dad recently of a heart attack, so they scheduled me for a routine stress test and echocardiogram on Monday.<br /><br />But on Monday during the routine stress test they saw a "blip on the radar screen/something in my EKG" and stopped the stress test in the middle. A bit scary since I thought these tests were just one more thing to be endured in preparing for a routine procedure.<br /><br />So they scheduled me for further testing including a CTA scan this morning. For those of you (like I was) who don't know what this test is let me tell ya. They inject radioactive dye into your veins and then take multiple pictures of your heart and surrounding arteries and etc inside this funky noisy tube you have been inserted into. The dye makes you feel funny, (not funny ha ha either) and the nausea isn't nice... but I am to call tomorrow afternoon for preliminary results to see if my surgery can go off without a hitch on Friday or more procedures have to take place with my heart first.<br /><br />Wow, talk about an eye opener...I never even dreamed I could have a problem with my heart! Granted the tests may show I don't but just going through all this so close on the heels of losing my father to a heart attack is really scary and tough! I have always wanted to be more like him but not sharing heart problems, this wasn't the way I had in mind.<br /><br />Then to top this fun stuff off my Dad's headstone was delivered and set on his grave this week which just adds the whole cherry to the top of the sordid sundae for me...<br /><br />It seemed like we (the family) were just starting to get a grip on our loss of Dad and not crying at the drop of a hat and now whammmmm we are right back where we started all over again! My sis, Mom and I have spent the better part of several days this week crying again...doesn't get any easier does it???<br /><br />Have you lost a parent??? How are you coping with it???? I would love to have any golden nuggets of information you can share to help us get through this.... and also any prayers for getting me through this whole crazy medical craziness!<br /><br />Thanks for letting me vent my friends!<br />God Bless!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/299072864328776059-2254117865227574400?l=countrygatheringswv.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Debhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02892673915045624273noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-299072864328776059.post-61822784993567641162009-04-23T19:20:00.000-07:002009-04-23T19:38:40.647-07:00<div align="center"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_D2ztZ5EPH4Q/SfEiesGugUI/AAAAAAAABdo/fjeYFOyx6zc/s1600-h/K800_IMG_3248.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5328077744786800962" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 150px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_D2ztZ5EPH4Q/SfEiesGugUI/AAAAAAAABdo/fjeYFOyx6zc/s200/K800_IMG_3248.JPG" border="0" /></a> Spring Sale!

Now with the shop and all my traveling and wanting to check online banking and shipment verifications and email I needed a phone with a wee bit more capabilities.</div><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div>But alas I may be many things but a genius with electronics I ain't! I have trouble with simple tasks like setting the time on the VCR, Who knew it wasn't supposed to flash 12:00???? Setting my alarm clock after a power outage can melt my cerebellum...you get the picture???? KISS that's my motto! </div><div></div><br /><div>So today I had to admit I needed more.... and off I go with the Hubs to the phone store to search for a better option. First I would just like to ask this question...Is anyone else intimidated when they walk in the phone store besides me??? I don't know what I am looking for and I cant understand half of what the sales people are talking about...sigh....good thing the Hubs is an electronic wizard!!! </div><div></div><br /><div>All I did know was I needed a real keyboard so I can send a text message that is spelled correctly, I need to be able to access my email while I am mobile and want something user friendly.....and would rather have something small to fit in my pocket too. </div><div></div><br /><div>We looked at a few that had QWERTY keyboards that also didn't involve selling one of our children to buy them. It came down to two choices, one of which was more like a Blackberry, you know PDA type phone....tooooo many bells and whistles on that one, and one called the Samsung Propel. </div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5311348030211215362" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 118px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 118px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_D2ztZ5EPH4Q/SbWy5Is10AI/AAAAAAAABNE/P0fYf2Dsy6k/s200/my+phone.jpg" border="0" /><br /><div>This phone has a full keyboard, hands-free talking capability, which is good for one who cant walk and chew gum at the same time much less drive and talk on cell!!!!
