  • Sore

    My Darling B woke up totally knackered this morning. Or, if she wasn’t completely tired out the minute she woke up, she felt like it just moments after finishing her shower and settling onto the sofa with her morning cuppa joe. After spending close to seven hours working her garden Sunday, and maybe six or Read.

  • Heepah!

    I think our dusty house may be trying to kill us. By the time we get to the end of the winter season, when the windows have been closed more or less continuously since October, our house has dust bunnies so numerous that the president takes them off the endangered species list. Granted, that’s mostly Read.

  • Seed

    I very nearly woke My Darling B from her beauty sleep this morning when I looked up from browsing over the morning headlines, saw that it was twenty past six and was shocked to realize I had yet to hear her up and around. She usually emerges from the bedroom shortly after six and hits Read.

  • Smooove

    My Darling B made an avocado smoothie this morning and kept some aside for me. I eagerly slurped it up, and I say that as a man who would not have slurped up anything with avocado in it until B started experimenting with foods like this. I was not a big fan of avocado because Read.

  • Tractors. Cows. 14. A Monk.

    My Darling B and I spent all day yesterday in downtown Madison and all we saw was a lousy two hundred thousand union supporters rallying around the capitol! Man, did we feel ripped off! We started off the day normally enough, washing up and heading into town to stock up our pantry with various and Read.

  • So Close

    ,

    My Darling B has been in the kitchen all morning stewing a batch of chicken thighs in saffron and a bunch of other yummy-smelling stuff, in preparation for turning them into meat pies. After stewing them, she piled them on a platter, placed the platter on the dining room table, then went to work on Read.

  • Weekend Fun

    ,

    And so ends a lovely three-day weekend we filled by reading books and watching videos. I’m still working on A Crack In The Edge Of The World, Simon Winchester’s history of the San Francisco earthquake, only he’s so into geology it’s more like a history of the entire planet’s geological past. Seriously, he goes all Read.

  • Beddy-bye

    I had almost as much trouble getting into bed last night as I usually do getting into the center seat of a commercial airliner. My Darling B turned in early because she’d been sick for the past few days and has been doing her darndest to get as much sleep as she can. She stayed Read.

  • Hello Kitty!

    One of the Christmas gifts I bought for My Darling B on-line arrived in the mail yesterday, a t-shirt with an adorable kitty on it. I’m giving away the surprise because I’ve already showed it to her. I had to. When I opened the package I found out there was no way I’d be able Read.

  • Cod Milt

    My Darling B visits many, many food porn sites every single day. She is a devoted, almost obsessively compulsive foodie, and that’s fine by me because those web sites give her the inspiration to do things in the kitchen that are deLISHous. It’s amazing to me, really, that she can throw together stuff that looks Read.
