Wrong pizza weekend

One of my favorite shows is “Renovation Realities” on diy and occasionally hgtv.  A new episode was on this morning about a couple by the last name of Fingers who are renovating their bathroom.  The wife is extremely industrious and isn’t doing a bad job at all, but the husband…….does just about everything that you [...]

Our deck, our weekends, ourselves

Last weekend and this, we’ve been relatively busy doing various and sundry things: catching up on our Netflix rentals just lying around (Testament of Dr. Mabuse, Story of the Weeping Camel, Rammstein Live aus Berlin), grocery shopping, spring cleaning, new recipes (espresso mocha cake, orange radish salad, whole wheat spinach salad from Ellie’s cookbook), taking [...]

Dueling horticulture

Duelling horticulturalists in our minds, only.  Despite the relatively heavy news updates as of late (disc, ill grandparents, nefarious ear infections of doom), Mike and I are having a bit of fun with our dueling tomato plants.  Now that the weather is finally warming up, both plants have blossoms.  Mike thinks the Better Boy will produce a tomato [...]

Chocolate biscuit, chocolate biscuit, chocolate biscuit

So normally I would blog mid-week, since Mike and I decided a rotating schedule of posting would work.  And since I’m not in the habit of blogging regularly, I forgot.  :p    Ah well–will get it done mid-week, next week.
So the good news is that it was a relatively calm week.  The weather was good up [...]
