Hello, my lovelies. Back to Sundays. I woke up early this morning, and I have a TON to do, so I decided to not procrastinate and just write this one right now. Also, I started this blog to fangirl over books, and boy do I have some books to fangirl over this week. But we… Continue reading Sunday Post: May 8, 2022

Hello, my lovelies. Sunday Posts continue to be tardy…but at least this week I have a reasonable excuse—I was out of town at a memorial service. I’d love to use this space to tell you a story about some remarkable people, if you will indulge me. Back at the VERY beginning of this milennium, I… Continue reading Sunday Post: May 2, 2022

Hello, my lovelies. Another Monday Sunday Post. I really had all the good intentions yesterday…but I slept late, and then the lovely roomie had a free day, so we played games and made cookies in the afternoon, followed by book club at 6. After that, my bestie had the evening free, so we talked till… Continue reading Sunday Post: April 18, 2022

Hello, my lovelies. Today was all about cooking and games, as is the case on a least one Sunday a month. I tried two new recipes, and played four not-new games. The first thing I tried was a honey-balsamic chicken in the instant pot, which was incredible. But it was eclipsed by the Asiago and… Continue reading Sunday Post: April 10, 2022

Hello, my lovelies. In the fall of 2016, I took Jake to the vet, likely for something completely benign, like a booster shot (his daycare had draconian requirements for booster shots). It was a couple years after John died, and the vet asked how he was doing. I said that he had adjusted pretty well,… Continue reading Sunday Post: April 3, 2022

Hello, my lovelies. It’s again terribly sad here, as we mourn with the rest of the music world the joyful, infectious, tortured genius that was Taylor Hawkins. We have been Foo Fighters fans since “This Is A Call” leaked early on WHFS back in ‘95, and Dave Grohl fans for longer than that. So, falling… Continue reading Sunday Post: March 27, 2022

Hello, my lovelies. Fifteen years ago, I watched a video about bread baking. There was a baker in New York who claimed that he had revolutionized home bread making by perfecting a method of making bread with NO KNEADING. Now, I have always wanted to be someone who bakes bread. Right about that time, I… Continue reading Sunday Post: March 20, 2022

Hello, my lovelies. As weeks go, this one has been pretty sad. The lovely roomie lost a family member after a three-month illness, which really sucked beyond the telling of it. (That he passed on the same day that her mother passed last year was just too much.) I did not know Tim—her brother-in-law for… Continue reading Sunday Post: March 13, 2022

Hello, my lovelies. Lord. It’s Monday, which makes this a weird day for a Sunday Post. But I spent the evening making cookies, like I do, and struggling with a new royal icing recipe, which never did turn out the way Alton Brown said it would, and when I sat down to write, I literally… Continue reading Sunday Post: March 7, 2022

Hello, my lovelies. Today was a game day here en casa, with our friend Lowell coming over for Spaghetti and Clank!. I made the sauce, Lowell made bread and dessert, and the three of us each won one game, which was pretty satisfying. I decided this morning that, in honor of the very lovely homemade… Continue reading Sunday Post: February 27, 2022
