I have a collection of Barbie dolls – don’t get excited, they are almost all reproductions – but they are wearing my favorite outfits from back in the day – because, as always, I am all about the clothes. I love my Barbies and they are mostly Mint – Not Removed from Box.  However, many…

For our neighborhood trick-or-treating / block party I made my favorites – salted peanut chews. (Yum) Here’s a word of advice. If and when you decide to do some baking, wear black. You do this because the flour will give you clear and convincing evidence of your efforts. This is the voice of experience.

Today is October 17th. It’s snowing! Holy crap! It’s too warm and wet to pile up, but wow! It’s snowing, y’all. And it’s only the middle of October! What the fuck have I done?

Y’all are not going to believe this. There was a comment on one of my Monday blog posts; from a gentleman, saying many kind things about my blog and asking me to e-mail him. Hmmmmm. What to do?  I don’t need anymore dick pics in my life.  I don’t need anymore dicks in my life. …

When we moved into this neighborhood, we were told that there were never any trick-or-treaters on Halloween.  Okay.  A teensy bit disappointing, but we were living in a community in San Jose (the 10th largest city in the United States), and we never had trick-or-treaters.  So, we can deal. Then we learned that on a…

It’s Fall y’all. And, although the leaves are taking their own sweet time in changing, it does mean HALLOWEEN is just around the corner! I have put out my Fall/Halloween decorations.  What seemed more than adequate in our bitty San Jose home, seem very sparce in our new home – so that means, the day…

I am feeling crabby and grumpy today. I have absolutely no reason to feel this way. I have a pretty great life; and yet here I sit. I even took a walk today.  Isn’t getting out in the sunshine and doing a little exercise supposed to be good for your mood? And I practiced my…

I know I have been missing for a few days.  Sorry (a teensy bit). We were “Up North” trying to see some fall colors. Learned two things.  End of September is too early for fall colors “Up North” and the colors change inland first and on the coast later (who-the-fuck knew this? and why didn’t…

(And yes, I know, I’m a day behind.  Deal.) We all understand the nature of comfort food – so it shouldn’t be difficult to understand what I mean by comfort TV. It’s the stuff that hasn’t much value, but oh, it goes down so easy and makes you feel all cozy inside. You know? RuPaul’s…

I went furniture shopping with my sister Karon.  Still had to get a couple chairs for the she-cave and furnish the living room (which currently has the bagged artificial tree under the low hanging chandelier – so we stop whacking our punkin heads against the damn thing (who hangs their chandelier so low – if…
