Happy Thanksgiving (a bit belated)! I know, it is 2 days after Thanksgiving and all I’ve got is cookies. But here is the deal. A. I don’t actually care for traditional Thanksgiving food, and since everyone else wants it I rarely cook it. B. My life is totally chaotic right now so I was super…

Phew!! The computer is home!
OK and we still do not know what was wrong with it–apparently it checked out fine. We are going to try to install Windows again. But big thanks to Chrissy and especially Jason (since he did the work đ ) for looking at it. I will be back with a recipe tomorrow–cookies–but since it is…
AAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHH! (Taste & Create)
OK so first let me apologize for disappearing for a week. My computer is still MIA (and so far nothing can be found wrong with it, which is so NOT reassuring) and we were out of town for 4 days. I went to the Ohio State/Michigan football game. Bring on basketball season! ‘Nuff said. đ…
Bowties with Roasted Winter Squash Arugula and Pine Nuts

So many of our (children) gift giving occasions are dominated by big gifts that they can share, but this…

A Virus Has Struck
And for the first time in my life I don’t mean me. Â My nasal passages are 100% clear, thank you very much. Â But anyway my computer seems to be involved in some prolonged crash of sorts. Â I am using my husband’s laptop, which I detest, and so for now I am going to try to…
Yam Neua (Thai Grilled Beef Salad)
Happy Election Day! I hope you all got out and voted for your candidate of choice. If you live in the northern U.S., welcome to Daylight Savings and short days and long nights. It is now officially quite dark before I get dinner on the table–I am hoping to either get a photo box for…
