How super-stylin’ is my nephew Cooper while he scopes his Halloween pumpkin? The little pumpkin with his pumpkin, awww, Coop! Good thing he’s keeping toasty warm in his hat and scarf on such a cold day! Brrr! Nathan, John, and I are keeping toasty warm too, with bowls of chewy rigatoni tossed with a sauce…

Rain, rain, go away! Especially on a Monday, sheesh. I stumbled out of bed, pulled on my walking clothes, pulled my hair back, brushed my teeth, made my way out to the kitchen in the dark, turned on my coffee…and then realized it was pouring and I was going exactly nowhere after dropping Nathan at…

Badger Homecoming, the weekend of October 26, heh, heh, heh! Thanks to our friend and co-Badger alum Jon, who pulled together tickets from our other mutual friend Niko – woo hoo Jon and Niko! And this time, I’m taking Nathan (and Jon’s taking his daughter Sophia), which will cast a verrryy different (read: sober!) view…

I braved the heat and humidity to snip some herbs from my deck (OK, it was only a few steps, but it’s HOT out there!) and found a couple of colorful visitors (black swallowtail caterpillars!) feasting on my parsley. And some pretty little blooms on my rosemary. Very not October (poor buggers, I don’t think…

Happy Birthday (yesterday!) to my mother-in-law Dot! Yikes, where did this week go? Crrraaazy around here, as I’m sure it is for all of you too, wow. It’s nice to finally see that gorgeous October sun! (Rain much?!) And all of the leaves slowly turning. I keep trying to remember to look around – and…

Turns out this is one of those rare Sundays that I won’t be cooking. Weird, huh? I love to cook on Sundays, especially in the fall, oooh: cool air + time = soup or stew or roast or bread or vegetables or, or, or… But not today, man, our fridge is bursting with tasties, a…

Moving Day! No, not for me, heavens no, but for Susie. So, instead of Friday Morning Coffee with Suz, it was Load Up My Car with Suz’s Stuff, ha. It was…fun! Yes, fun! I’ve given her and The Coreman all sorts of crap about being too old for a do-it-yourself move, but it’s all actually…

It’s been a Cooper-ish couple of days, or is about to be, lucky for me! Nothing like a dose of Cooper Cuteness to brighten one’s day. He’s really into cheesy, buttery quesadillas right now, it’s great fun to make one for him and hear his “mmm” when he takes a bite, ha. His reactions are…

Happy Almost 40th Birthday Kim! Yes, even the darling Maven of Mischief has (almost) finally joined us old gals in the Over-40 Club. Yuck, not a club I aspired to join, but there it is, nothing to do but accept it. Still catches me a bit off guard – 40. Yeah. Forty, Kim! Forty and…

Oops, I Did it Again! Somehow I accidentally slow-roasted another pork shoulder, this time an Italian version (think fennel seeds, tons of garlic, oregano, and thyme). Same technique as carnitas, same silky, porky result. Rarrrr, LOVE it. Nice to have sitting in the fridge over the weekend, ready to eat as is, or toss with…
