That is unusual for her. Still as I wrote earlier I'm not sad to have the extra time to get going on the soup for work tomorrow. I've never made it before and I am using way less leeks than called for (um I'm not paying $5/leek...

I've gotta give Smoky McSmokerson credit. He truly is committed to his cigarette and pot smoking. It has been freezing cold around here lately. It has snowed. It has rained. That guy is out on the landing at all hours of the day...

Anna gave me permission to post this. For those of you who don't know she is in the process of moving. I think they are packing boxes now. Although she loves where she lives now, she wanted a place that would be safer for her...

Last night was our final Trivia Night, as it’s being discontinued at the location closest to us. It takes place at another location on Tuesdays, so I think it was just a lot for the hosts. That’s understandable. My therapist asked...

I was making some baby lamb ribs on the stove in my Staub la cocotte. This time I decided to add vegetable stock and wine. I usually use water. The ribs cooked for about 2.5 hours at my husband’s insistence. I would’ve taken...

Hello everyone. I hope your day is off to a good start. It is 32 degrees F and raining here at the Jersey Shore. At least it isn't snow. Well that 90 minute delay today seems totally unnecessary. I mean I don't mind going in later...

That's crazy. They are saying that we are going to get less than an inch of show. The announcement said we are having a delay due to predicted icy conditions. Damn if that was the criteria then we should have had delays for like...

The supposed anti-war "America First" president has had a wild first 2.5 weeks of his second presidential term. He kicked it off by threatening to use the military to take control of both Greenland and the Panama Canal. Then he...
