I'm actually waiting for the digital copy from my library (have it on hold). In the meantime, I have started The Buddha In The Attic by Julie Otsuka....

Great! Thanks Jane and rosa!

Again, beautiful picture, bae. Thanks for sharing.

What is the title of the octopus book again? I am now looking for something new to read.

I'm thinking noodles and cabbage with some chicken and veggies thrown in.

Maybe an attempt to broaden your horizons - at least in their eyes?? LOL. At least they thought of you. :)

Good job, beckyliz. You made me laugh about the clamshell packaging. So true!!!

Thimbles? These aren't sewing thimbles but rather collector thimbles, so I doubt it.

I also agree on finding a good home for things. Need to start looking for one (or more) for my massive thimble collection.

I'm hoping it's a clear sky when I get home from work tonight!

Great, Tradd! Congrats! Keep up the good work!

Not cooking this week and had a gift card to Panera. Got two of the "Get2" deals - two salads and two sandwiches for an out of pocket cost of about...

Happy Belated Birthday!!!

Finally got to the shredding! Big bag out to recycle and now have extra room in the file drawer for some of the stuff that has been sitting on top of...

I totally agree about the hypocrisy around alcohol.

It really is a good thing that hope - on anything! - is an individual choice instead of being dependent on politics, others, etc.

Just started A Brief History of Time by Stephen Hawking. Opening pages already very interesting!

Soup - some broccoli and ricotta soup with some potatoes and a little bit of chicken broth added in. Used an immersion blender to blend up the...

Hooking up with my bff today and we'll go out to eat to celebrate both our birthdays. Not sure where or what yet. LOL

I wear a t-shirt and men's Wrangler cargo pants to work. (I still can't find a pair of well-made, inexpensive women's cargo pants that seem to fit!)...

LOVE that video! Thanks so much for sharing it, dado. Happy St. Patrick's Day to all.

Beautiful and an amazing shot!

Homemade pizza. And since the oven is on, made a quick loaf of bread.

Thanks, everyone! And no worries, Rogar... main topic is Pi/Pie, so you were right on target. :)

Thanks, catherine. Love the poem!!! Do we share a birthday, Rogar??? If so - Happy Birthday!!! If not - Happy Pi Day!!!!

A week sounds reasonable, Tybee. Good luck!

Il, so sorry to hear about the events and death in your town. Prayers going out.

Yay! I feel this new fashion trend is permission to start pulling shirts out of my closet and wearing them without ironing them!!! :)

Wow! Very nice, Kay!!

ALL taxes are done! I feel like life can start moving forward again. LOL.

Quick and easy pasta with meat sauce.

The Little Prince. I've been wanting to re-read it again for a while and finally got a copy. Worth the hour or two to read again.

I've been trying to keep the grocery shopping down from once a week to once every two weeks - maybe twice every three. Also needed a new pair of...

Just dumped some chicken legs, potatoes and carrots into the cp. It's REALLY full! Hopefully everything cooks okay.

Hi Alan. Was wondering if donation time was coming up. Just looking for a little heads-up. Thanks.

LOL. I read this stuff, but actual understanding/absorbing/internalizing is definitely not instantaneous. I need exposure and re-exposure for many of...

Ditto on the Wintergarden! I like little things from each of the spaces - this piece of furniture, that built-in, etc. What gets me in a lot of...

Thanks everyone. Got one of the children's taxes done yesterday, so the "tax tasks" are almost complete for the year! Another accomplishment...

Finally finished the last (of three) volume of The Great Treatise on the Stages of the Path to Enlightenment. Not sure what I will start up next.

I don't use dry sheets either for exactly the reasons catherine state. But this has me wondering if the strong "laundry" smells coming from houses I...

Your book reminds me of the ones my father collected, which included the Jerry Todd series, so I was able to read all those when I was really young. ...

Wow, rr! Those are all so nice! I love the fish and like the little heart necklaces.

Went grocery shopping yesterday. I am finding that I will shop both Aldi's and ShopRite - both are in the same area, so travel is not an issue. I...

Made kielbasa and sauerkraut last night. Tonight will be pre-made stuffed peppers.
