It’s hard to believe my love is 60 years old today. We have been together for over 51 years now and yes, I realize that dates us both. From the day I set eyes upon him until now, my feelings for him have grown 10 fold. Through all we have been through in our lives [...]

COMPU-RATATOUILLE UN-DELICIOUS Serves-Plenty Cook Time-Weeks This is the ultimate high-tech I love to have it all recipe.

Nothing makes me want to blog more than not being able to include photos with my random probably boring weekly news. My sweet husband is working on this recent problem with miniscule inching closer results. Questions to the web host resulted in answers that weren’t surprising: the problem isn’t on their end. Searches on the word press [...]
