Yawn! I’m TIRED after my Kim & Suz Slumber Party! We had so much fun. Nice dinner, great wine, time to talk, an after-dinner stroll around the neighborhood, lots of silliness – basically, a total blast. We all padded off to bed around 1 a.m. – not quite like the good ol’ days when we’d…

I had to give up Cooper and Stacey today because of my dumb cold. Cooper Cuteness! I didn’t want to make him sick, of course, sigh. I feel so much better today than yesterday, I hope this is a short-lived annoyance. I must be in good shape for tomorrow night’s Slumber Party! Since John and…

I have a damn cold. Damn! Came on yesterday afternoon, seemingly all of a sudden, but when I think back to how tired I felt on my walk on Monday morning, and how sore my throat and head were on Sunday afternoon…the writing was already on the wall. I was in denial and hoped it…

Happy Birthday to my awesome mother-in-law Dot! (Aka Dottie the Kid, so-called by her loveable, dorky sons John and Tom, I doubt they even know why. And oh, aka M-Bear, as in Mama Bear, by same dorky sons, aka Puppy and Boogles. Got that?) And a big thank you to Ana Scofield and Rudy Maxa…

If you’re searching for a hearty – but not heavy – and fabulously delicious Sunday night dinner, I have the perfect suggestion: Jacques Pepin’s Instant Beef Stew. It’s made with beef tenderloin (or tender lamb), so doesn’t require a long braise. In fact, a relatively quick turn in the saute pan results in vegetables that…

Nice day! A sensualist’s delight, and not just the weather (which is nothing short of perfect, rarrr…). I opened by breakfasting with my lovely aunt Marge at the Good Earth/Galleria. Love their yummy, spa-like, healthy breakfasts. I skipped the wheat grass (!) and went for steel cut oats with fresh berries, and an over-easy egg,…

This squash, delicata, was new to me in my CSA veggie share last week. I had to look it up – from whatscookingamerica.net: Delicata squash is also called sweet potato, peanut squash, and bohemian squash. This is one of the tastier winter squashes, with creamy pulp that tastes a bit like sweet potatoes. Size may…

Happy Birthday Polly! OK, today is not lovely Polly’s actual birthday. Nor was yesterday. August 7, in fact, was the big day, but we just got around to celebrating it last night (!), with a typically fabulous dinner at Lucia’s. Great wine (they make a terrific daily red and white suggestion, to suit the day’s…

Happy Birthday Maven of Mischief!!! I’m rushing out the door to meet the beautiful Birthday Grrrrl and Suz for a birthday walk and breakfast (Kim took the day off to celebrate – woo hoo!), so I’ll post more later. Suffice it to say that I hope, my dear friend, that you have a Fabulous Day!…

Happy Birthday Rudy! I sadly had to miss Rudy’s dim sum birthday celebration yesterday for Nathan’s baseball game, which was…chilly. Brrr… No need to ice my sore piriformis sitting on those bleachers, damn! And worse, some fan sitting near me was rocking so much heavy perfume that my eyes and nose were stinging and watering….
