Kitchen

It’s not a secret I love my kitchen. When we renovated this house we built the kitchen as though we might never do such an over-haul ever again. And we might not. That’s how much I love it. Hindsight being 20/20, there are a couple of things I would do differently, but overall, I love [...]

Now: Sleepy But Happy

Right now I am collapsed in a heap on my sofa. It’s been a busy day, but wow… so much fun! After a quick trip to the Strip District for a few last minute items I was off to the Hebrew National Better-Than-A-Picnic picnic in Highland Park. We had great hotdogs (I mean really, really [...]

Iron(ic) Chef Point Breeze

It all started with a harmless little tweet back in December, and my inability to let such things slide. What I didn’t reveal at the time is that I couldn’t remember the last time I made a crab cake, or even if I had ever made them. (I had. Once.) I like eating them, though. If [...]

I was going to link to all the other bloggers [...]

my kingdom for a couple of toothpicks

Need something to prop my eyelids open. Too.much.hockey. Way.too.late.

Maybe bring a really big box of toothpicks, for the whole city. We’re tired, but it’s a very good kind of tired.

Eleanor didn’t wake up to nurse this morning, probably sensing her mum didn’t really need to be up at 4:30am after staying up to watch the [...]
