From the Kitchen and Bar – I have committed a culinary sin….and it was goooood

A week after Snowzilla and we still have about a foot of snow still on the ground. I’ve been tossing out old bread and stale snacks for the local crows, squirrels and little birdies since they have little to eat. Yesterday we had a huge number of crows in the neighborhood. There must have been … Continue reading From the Kitchen and Bar – I have committed a culinary sin….and it was goooood →

What the Boss Likes – Snowzilla, and a couple of pics from last summer

Update:  The aftermath.  Husband is digging out the bug.   Here I am sitting in the belly of Snowzilla, the current nor'easter battering the east coast of the US.   We have about 12 inches of snow (30.5 cm for you who have a sensible measurement system), and we still have around 10 hours of snow … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – Snowzilla, and a couple of pics from last summer →

What the Boss likes – or what she thinks is mildly interesting

Arrgh, I have a cold. What tedious misery. The following is pretty much stream of consciousness nattering. Treat it as you will. Apple Pie moonshine from Old Republic Distillery is very good mixed about half and half with boiling water and with a bit of hot buttered rum “batter” aka equal parts of butter and … Continue reading What the Boss likes – or what she thinks is mildly interesting →
