In which my job is SO fantastic, and I truly enjoy it. (What a blessing, to not hate one’s job!) Last year, I worked in a cheese shop in Minneapolis. It carried hundreds of domestic and European cheeses, and it was really fun. I learned a ton about cheeses and cured meats, my palate evolved, […]
In which THIS IS THE WEEK the washer and dryer come!!! My favorite aunt bought us a washer and dryer. We ordered them back in October, but they had to be shipped in, I guess, and we had to wait a couple months for delivery. They’re due ON TUESDAY, and they’ll go in this very […]
In which it’s perfect and I love it so much! We got a kitchen table (from an old BMI co-worker of mine, who offered it via Instagram when I posted we’d gotten this house to rent and needed furniture — thanks, Mike!) and it’s in the kitchen now and it’s exactly the right size and […]
In which I’m already planning next year’s tomatoes! While there is a back yard on the west side of the house so enormous it could support an absolutely giant garden, there’s also a huge shade tree back there, and tall fences, so I’m not really sure about sunlight. Plus, to put a garden in the […]
In which there’s sodium citrate, aka melting salt, in American cheese, so it makes great nacho cheese sauce. You may be a human being who, from time to time, thinks to yourself, “I want some freakin’ nacho cheese sauce.” But when you look up nacho cheese sauce recipes online, they’re all roux-based, which is basically […]
In which I love this goddamned appliance, okay? I cooked three full meals in this kitchen today, for a total of eight courses, and I have not done the washing up. Look at it. Just look. It’s spotless. No dishes anywhere. THEY’RE IN THE DISHWASHER, off the counter, out of sight. It’s amazing. I never […]
In which I just don’t enjoy Facebook anymore because it’s full of disinformation and depression and conspiracy theories and none of that’s any fun. Just logged into FB for the first time in a couple of weeks and my last post turned into the biggest conversation on my page in years. I find this funny, […]
In which I’ve moved to Oregon, a state I haven’t lived in since the early 90’s! We found a house in Milton (or is it Freewater?) and have moved into it. It’s an eight-block walk from the cheese shop for me, and I’m grateful that it cuts his commute in half. Big old tree in […]
In which I’ve gone and turned 51, of all things, and here is a short paragraph about it. I’m fat as hell, my feet always hurt even though I only work part-time, my skin has no elasticity and is just drooping like fabric on the bias, I have a nearly constant stabbing pain in the […]
In which where DOES the time go? It’s September?! I’ve been at the cheese shop for a month and a half now and really enjoy it. My friend got a job there too, so I have someone to ride to work with now that my beloved is working at the casino and can’t chauffeur me […]
