I am a firm believer that breakfast for dinner is a-okay. I also have never been able to make an omelet.  Okay, truth – I’ve never actually tried.  Just looking at how it is done is enough for me to know this is something that I don’t need to try.  But I found a recipe…

A retail chain in Taiwan (RT-Market) was called to task for some size descriptions for women’s clothing. They designated size XL as Rotten. They designated size XXL as Extra Rotten. And they designated size XXXL as Rotten to the Core. The chain claims this happened in only one store and has apologized – one of…

I am still putting up Christmas ornaments.  The tree went up on Sunday. The last of the lights went on Tuesday. I expect I could still be putting on ornaments well into 2021; unless I exercise some self-restraint (not something I’m known for). I have sooooooooo many ornaments. And I love my ornaments.

You know that thing where you misjudge where the corner of the wall is (or just how FAT of a fat old lady you are) as you walk by?  And then you end up scraping some sticky-out bit of yourself against that corner? Well, I did that the other day. It hurt like the blazes. …

I know, it’s early.  But I need it for the background for my video for Sunnyvale Community Player’s Holiday At Home video.  I have been avoiding putting up the tree for all these years because I was worried how…

Been busy. Still fat. Still old. Fat old people exist.

First, congrats to yours truly for having a blog idea and actually starting the post before said idea disappeared in the echoing empty halls of my fat old lady brain.  (See, I do know better.) Second, I am so pleased that I have FINALLY mastered the art of making crescent dogs. You know, that delectable…

I like having a routine. Actually, I love having a routine. It is definitely not a good thing when something fucks with my routine. Like an election. No, I’m not talking about the politics – that’s a whole other blog post and I don’t do political blog posts because I don’t need anybody handing my…

Yes, I am going to be doing something theatrically.  Don’t faint (I may or may not be talking to myself.) Sunnyvale Community Players (SCP) put out the call for submissions for an online holiday show – Holidays at Home – A Memory Lane Special. I submitted my idea, and was invited to do a callback…
