    Taking a Break . . .

    ‘ Unfortunately, I have no blog to publish today.  🙁  I had to rush my dad to the emergency room bright and early yesterday morning and wound up spending the entire day and most of the night with him in the hospital.  Which normally wouldn’t have precluded me from writing a post, but for some…

    Chez Cherie Cooking School from “I Love New York”

    ‘ This year for Christmas, I decided to gift the Grim Cheaper with tickets to a cooking class.  The GC is an absolutely FABULOUS cook, while I, on the other hand, can hardly crack an egg, as I mentioned in my January 2010 post about the home where Julia Child grew up.   So I thought…
