Countdown

So Shaun and Sue begin about a two week countdown tomorrow with it being the first of the month.  I don’t know about all’s you’s guys, but I’m pretty excited for them!  This will be the first baby born to our generation in our immediate family.  They both love children...

So sweet

Last night as I was about to go down in the basement to throw in a load of laundry and do some vacuuming I heard a tap at the back door.  I went to it and there was my neighbor Myrna.  Her son has been in Japan for a few...

Clowns are creepy

So last night I made my clown cake.  A little creepy, but I couldn’t find any other type of heads in the cake decorating section of the store.  I made a two-layer torted yellow cake with white icing in between the layers and on top, then yellow sides.  A star...

New theme

So that pretty theme that I had up with the purple background and butterfly kind of sucked.  Nobody could post comments, and some of my links were stripped out.  I don’t think that I’ll be using that one again. I just finished icing my cake for this week’s class.  Yellow...

Oh what a windy day

Coming up the Pike this morning to Waltham was a very windy ride.  I expect that it will only be worse on the way home.  Wind-chills are expected to take us below zero tonight.  On a different note, I got my ass back to the gym today for the first...

Attention span, what’s that?

I think that I have less and less attention span with each passing day.  Things get old for me very quickly now.  I keep changing the look of my site ’cause I’m bored with it.  I keep cutting my hair for a new and different look.  What the heck.  Something...

Roasted Green Beans

Yeah, so although they sound really good, roasted green beans suck. The most basic recipe that I had said to preheat the oven to 425, drizzle the beans with a tiny amount of olive oil and salt & pepper them. Roast on a sheet for 10 minutes, pull ’em out,...

So many decisions

It’s barely even the beginning of winter and the catalogs are coming out for gardening.  We really need to decide now if were going to attempt to start from seeds, or if we’re going to chance waiting for spring and hope that the local nurseries have all of the vegetables...
