Speaking of cooking…
My cousin Lynn has an interesting post entitled "Chili Apologetics" (you're curious, aren't you?). You'll even get a recipe if you read the comments. It makes me hungry, and maybe a wee bit frightened... She's talking about some serious chili! Stop by and say "hey!"...

When you take your supper out of the oven then snap a picture of it, you know there's a post about it in your future. That's what happened last week when we had homemade pizza. I seem to have a cooking blog this week. I've considered starting one - and even have a...
The Word Association Meme
I have come to realize that a meme is usually for the author, not the audience. For this tiny meme, I have recalled fond memories of my mother, my grandparents, and a comedian (he doesn't really count), all deceased. I have resisted jumping on this word association...

Ray Swings, Basie Swings!
I am excited about a new CD I downloaded Friday night from eMusic, before the release date of October 3, called Ray Sings, Basie Swings. The last time I mentioned Ray Charles, I found out Melanie was a fan, so at least one person may get something from this post. In...
