I found these recipes on Pinterest, and I’ve always wanted a good mac and cheese recipe, because I love the stuff, but I don’t want to use a box mix. This is my first attempt, and I’m not very happy with it. It curdled on me. There are comments in … Continue reading →
You probably would never know it now, but when I was a kid (pre-ten), I was bonkers for monkeys. I was serious in my request to have one for a pet. Alas, I was to be perennially disappointed in that quest. My parents did the best they could though, and … Continue reading →

Delicate girls couldn’t be expected to run up and down a full court, so we had three forwards and three … Continue reading →
The beauty of recipes is they can be varied. My friend Tammy has some great recipes. The one we’re trying today is BBQ Ribs. (Tammy hasn’t added any new recipes in a while — maybe she’ll consider it.) I’ve made this numerous times with boneless pork ribs. Today, when I … Continue reading →
