Chicken Parmesan From Rafael’s

This chicken parmesan is a simply made dish with lots of flavor. The meat sauce brings this Italian favorite together.

Rafael’s is a local chain with a few locations in the Chattanooga area. They have a great meatball sandwich too among great deals on pizza.

A Great Memory From Four Years Ago, A Fresh Start At Blood Assurance

Four years ago today I started at Blood Assurance which is a regional blood bank.

After a two-year spell of unemployment I was hired on at a much needed time. What started as a part-time position turned into full-time and I’ve done a lot in my time there. I’m grateful to still be there.

These knockout roses started popping up. Once all the bushes start popping its like a fireworks display. We can tell its spring when these beauties start to bud and bloom.
