I had picked up Felix at the airport Friday evening and we had just walked in the door: "What do you want to do for dinner?" "I don't know, I'll check and see if Opentable has anything interesting to offer."...
The other day I learned the single worst dinner to cook up when your husband has an unpredictable job. In reality, I should be making stews and soups so that if they sit on the stove or in the oven...
There are awful icky sicknesses trotting their way through the population at my high school. Like whooping cough. I didn't even know that was around anymore! I thought people who did things like, I don't know, come over on the...
