Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Corn Arugula Salad, it turns out. Nice job, morning me.

I got my phone & set it up...I think. I can call it, at least.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I had what turned out to be THE BEST grilled cheese sandwich this weekend. Gruyere cheese, bacon pieces and corn--yes, corn kernels. It was a great combo of creamy/crunchy and savory/sweet. Can't wait to try it on my husband.

ION, I only have a week more of work from today! On the 1st, I fly off to Michigan and start a new chapter.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I love putting corn in a tossed salad, and now I really want to try it in a grilled cheese!

On the 1st, I fly off to Michigan and start a new chapter.

Yay! Excited to have you in the Midwest!

Woo, Scrappy! I am excited for your new chapter and for your new take on grilled cheese.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Corn/bacon/cheese is a killer combo, so I am sure that it would be even better in bread!

And now I'm sad I didn't get corn last weekend.

You know where I bet they have good corn? Michigan.

Excellent point!

Ooh, there's a thing on Sunday at the local wineries and so forth and as part of it the Olive Oil place is selling grilled corn. More incentive to go.

So I'm glad I only made one serving, because I have notes to myself for tomorrow, but the flatbread situation was delicious! I cooked up bacon and onions and kale and put them on top of goat cheese on the naan and then some pinenuts. MMM MMM GOOD.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'm not always here, but when I can't get here, I don't like it at all.

I updated my work computer to Win10, and afterwards I wasn't getting work email reliably AND I couldn't get here (because the cache had been dumped). GUESS WHICH ONE BOTHERED ME MORE.
