I need to figure out a way to enjoy snow days again… School was canceled today and instead of being excited about it, I’m kind of bummed. So much for my “day off” – no long trip to the gym and no watching movies with my parents now. A day of staying home and cleaning [...]
Hey, its kind of a compliment! I fixed liver and onions and peppers tonight (and a loaf of homemade wheat bread). David doesn’t like liver and I didn’t like it when I was a child, but its extremely healthy – lots of iron and B vitamins – so I decided to make it for dinner. [...]

On the agenda: watching movies, playing boardgames, some baking, and cleaning house. I already have a big pot of italian bean-spinach soup in [...]
