I’ll choose to call this morning crisp, not chilly, given it’s pleasantly sunny and green. I’ll not deign to call it glorious, however. Oh, wait, that’s right, I’m supposed to not tempt the weather gods. Then I take it back, I take it back immediately. A glorious morning, quite worthy of praise. (And it is,…

Going a little truffle this evening, heh, heh, heh. Just John and me, our usual Monday evening, and I’m itching to cook after a weekend of eating out. And I have this jar of white truffles, from Zabar’s, calling my name… I know, it’s nothing like having a fresh white (or black) truffle, I’ve had…

Happy Birthday Tom! Today is John’s little bro Tom’s birthday. Tom has assigned military codenames for the people in his life. His wife Valerie is Whitewater. His son Cameron is The General. I’m Smoky, so named a couple of years ago while John and Tom were on the phone on a Saturday morning while I…

Zabar’s baby! Oh yeah, oh yeah. NY-deli feast tonight, arrived this a.m., to celebrate round II of John’s birthday. Shrimp and lobster salads, H&H bagels, chive cream cheese, pastrami, corned beef, sour-dough rye, chocolate chip cookies. Basically, all of John’s favs. And mine too – OMG, can’t wait to sink my teeth into a warm…

Happy Birthday to the most amazing husband in the whole world – J..O..H..N!!! Woo hoo! John. My John. My best friend. Best other things too, but never you mind about that. Unashamedly selfish and unendingly generous all at the same time – that’s the key to his hilariously dichotomous core, that’s his charm. That and…

Burgers. Beer. No Brownies, though. Hmmm. I know, Bed! Bed works, to keep my alliterative barbecue triumvirate in power… I won’t be in bed while I consume burgers or beer, but soon thereafter, so I say it counts. Burgers. Beer. Bed. Have a good night yourself. (I’m rushing, back out onto the deck for yet…

Happy Bunny to You! One of the most entertaining Easter dinners I’ve experienced included a rendition of that song, sung to the dinner guests by one of my (to remain unnamed) friend’s usually teetotaller mom, after half a glass of wine. To the tune of Happy Birthday. Oh, man, it was fabulous, I thought my…

I burned a stack of arugula in offering to the weather gods last night – you should all thank me, at least here in Minneapolis, because apparently they were pleased and bestowed upon us once again a stunning day. Arugula is their favorite. None of this lamb or first-born son stuff. Arugula, baby. Sorry, a…

Lunch al fresco with Marge at the Good Earth today. Another glorious day here in Minnesota, as usual. Ha. Funny how easily arrogance settles in. No, I’m grateful, I’m grateful, I swear I’m grateful. I’m not attempting to tempt the weather gods, I’m no fool. I spent nine years of my life in Grand Forks,…

Big Birthday Month, April. Vivian (3rd), John (18th), my aunt Marge (19th), John’s bro Tom (20th), my friend Michelle (23rd), my cousin Michael and Nathan (29th). Wild! What with the Bat Mitzvah weekend, we haven’t done much birthday planning around here. Time to snap to it! Happily had ribs, cabbage salad, and cherry tart for…
