Super Sunday

You know it.   Family and friends (and regular readers) know I’m into football, so it’s no surprise I scheduled myself off for this entire weekend.  Priorities people! Sadly, neither the Pats nor the Giants really do it for me.  I think Tom Brady is too pretty and I think Eli just rides the coat tails of the older Mannings. I’ll still be watching the game though.  Obviously.  Who are you rooting for?  Or are you also apathetic about the match-up?

A trail of oats & seeds

  When I was younger I hated nuts and seeds in all forms, but I especially detested them in bread.  When my parents took us to fancy restaurants it made me so sad when the waiter would bring out the bread basket and it looked like the rolls were infested with ticks.  [The image of my dad using a burned out match to get a tick to crawl out of our dog’s skin was clearly very traumatic for me]  Aaaand now that I’ve grossed you out with that lovely visual… Would you like a recipe?… Read more >
