    It was kind of a self inflicted wound on trump's part. If he would've just acknowledged that they had sex then she wouldn't have been needed as a witness.

    Driving home from dinner earlier SO joked ‘can you see the northern lights?’ It wasn’t dark yet so he was just being silly. Then two minutes later a friend texted that his mom had seen them in...

    This got me curious. A quick search on amazon finds that people make standalone induction burners specifically for woks. I don't know enough about woks to know how practical this is. For instance...

    Indeed! It will be sad when our neighbor passes, both because she's a total sweetheart and because the area in front of our house will look way less cheerful once she's gone. But she's only 92 and...

    Had a lovely hike about ten minutes south of us this weekend. That's downtown San Francisco in the distance (the salesforce tower is the tallest building) and the Bay Bridge off to the left.

    I've mentioned before that the old lady next door LOVES gardening and is very good at it. And that she also plants and cares for flowers on our side of the sidewalk area leading to our front doors. ...

    That's an interesting observation. And not one I would've ever thought of. But it makes sense since the surface area of a wok on the burner is actually quite small. I actually did a stir fry...
