I am thankful for: my husband, my best friend, my everything our mutual childfree belief our two cats and one turtle who bring us many giggles and lots of love that I still have two grandparents living; two finer people might not walk this Earth technology that is more often my friend than foe reasonable […]
Thanksgiving, my third favorite holiday. I’m craving real/traditional comfort foods for this, my second vegan, Thanksgiving. So, while I can easily “cheat” and have the non-vegan (but mostly vegetarian) versions of these foods, I’m making my own. I think this will be easier than last year’s meal of the traveling Tofurkey with sides. Vegan Stuffing […]
Dear Alamo @Drafthouse, Thank you. Thank you for creating a place where adults can routinely enjoy a movie among the company of other well-behaved adults. Thank you for the No Talking/Texting” rules and the No Little Kids policy. Coupled with the ever-changing menu, gLous drink list, and fabulous service, it’s an adult oasis in an […]
So, E (as primary on the insurance) gets a bill this week that the dentist wants the rest of the money for the bridge replacement. Insurance didn’t pay their part due to “a pre-existing condition….missing tooth”. I know this is a big “shock” to you all, but I’m seething. I know “receptionist” (in quotes and […]

This is a “trashcan” or “dump” recipe that can be made completely from not-very-perishible[1] ingredients. These are great for cold or rainy days when you just don’t want to leave the house. Even if you haven’t been to the store, you might have these on hand. The beauty is that if you have a little […]
Thanks to @idodoodle, we have now seen a Blue Lime (Internet Cafe) in the Philippines. Yay for the “franchise”! Now, if we could only get them to pay their fees…. hmmmm? 😉 “Czech” it out!
If you find @TheBloggess to be anywhere near as funny as I do, add her book to your 2012 wish list! I mean, anyone who will willingly take a dressed mouse on a plane has some funny stories to share, right? I hope I end up next to her on a plane one day!

Two years ago, I was far to ill to attend Thanksgiving–my third favorite holiday. I tried to get E to go to Bryan without me, but he wanted to stay here and take care of me. yippie. j.k. Actually, he was quite kind to check on me but otherwise leave me alone… I think he […]
