Nicky has a new entry on his WordPress. The title is about progress on “the new entry,” presumably for his Codexed. Yet, when you read it, it’s full of whine and cheese about his finances. It seems that his grandfather didn’t have the foresight to pay the household expenses into perpetuity, and Nicky has to […]

Funniest Thing Ever

Susan Collins hosted a lunch meeting on Capitol Hill, to which Obama was invited, along with a number of Republican senators. On the menu were Maine lobster salad, and pie made from wild Maine blueberries. So far, so good, right? I would have tucked right into that lunch with gusto. Blueberries rank right up there […]

Oh, I’m going to get booed for this. The Vatican elected an Argentinian who has decided to go by Francis I. Mostly, I don’t give a rat’s patootie. There’s no way this guy is going to infringe on my daily life. But, hail Frankie!

Value for money this year, so far, has been the $110 I spent on materials for our cold frame. For that, we built a rather large one that’ll last for at least a couple of decades. I insisted on 1/4″ thick plexiglass for the top instead of the cheap thin stuff. It was approximately half […]

Your chicken, pork, veal, beef, bison, elk, or whatever. Poke it. When it’s done, it’ll spring back a little, and smell like it’s ready to eat. Same deal with fish. If it’s undercooked, it’ll still feel flabby. If it’s cooked enough, it’ll pass the poke test. If it’s something that needs to stew for a […]
