Menu Item Monday (June 4th, 2012)

Happy Monday everybody. This week I went to Johnny's Dock Restaurant and we tried dishes from their "Twilight Menu." Everything on that menu was just $14.95. Did you know that you can buy Johnny's Dock Seasoning Salt right there at the restaurant? I usually get mine at the grocery store but I noticed City Grocer IGA (which is the closest store to me) didn't have it. Now I know that I can just go straight to the source and get it at the restaurant!

I also visited the Grand Opening of the South Tacoma Farmers Market at the new Metro Parks STAR Center and it was really great! You simply must go check it out one of these Sundays!

The view from this place, even on an overcast day, is stunning.


Steak salad - WOW! Doesn't that look amazing?

Chicken Fettuccine - this was enough for two meals! I took it home and had it for lunch the next day. Delicious!

Salmon Salad - pretty, delectable and healthy! Gotta get those Omega 3's in in your diet! :)

Nana Bell's BBQ - we got giant ribs and bread. They called it a BBQ sandwich but it had bones in it so I'm skeptical about the name. Still, it was yummy eaten separately.

Purdy Pickle Company

 Organic Hand-dipped Corn Dogs and Kettle Corn

Stone Ground Bakery - I love buying locally baked bread!

Blue Rose Dairy - this guy seems a little cheesy to me, but something tells me that's on purpose.

Seattle Bagel Bakery - I ran into a friend near this booth who swore that these bagels are amazing. I wasn't in the mood but I think I'll get some next time.





That's it for today folks. Happy eating!


XOXO,

What's in a name? Who are the Jossy's and where did they come from?

I decided to research my Jossy Patriarchal line as far back as I could. I made it all the way back to the 1300s and along the way I learned some things. For one thing my last name has evolved over time. My father spelled his last name Jossy but a few generations back they spelled it Jossi. Go back a few more and it becomes von Jossa. This journey took me from Washington State to Oregon to Switzerland and eventually Germany. I also learned that the "von" represents nobility.  I also noticed that they repeated the same first names a lot. There were a lot of Peter's for example. Peter is a very old name. The people of ancient Greece used it and its said to mean "rock." Of course Peter was also one of the disciples of Jesus which is probably where most people know it from but Peter the disciple was nick-named that by Jesus. He was born with the name Simon and I found that name in my Patriarchal line too.  Simon is also an ancient name. It means " hearkening or

Elon Musk isn't the only one interested in the underground

I've always been fascinated with tunnels. As a young girl I went spelunking on a school field trip through several caves in the Ozark Mountains. I couldn't tell you where exactly but I vividly remember one cave that we had to go down through a small opening down into a huge cavern where we camped inside for the night. It was as big as a football field. Another cave we had to wade through red clay almost knee deep. As an adult I visited Montana and we went into a small narrow cave just tall enough to walk upright and narrow enough to be able to touch both sides of the cave with my hands. Probably to the annoyance of my companions, I couldn't help but to sing as we walked because the sound was so amazing in there. Cave resonance I learned recently is a real thing and can be very powerful at healing and accessing our third eye spirituality. If you study religion at all, you know that many mystics and spiritual leaders received inspiration and messages from beyond while spendin
