Well, my days of not taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle.

No one brought you a ham?

And you're in Boston, no one is gonna bring you a frito chilli casserole. Which was a staple of every midwestern gathering I've been to. That sucks. (Why I remember you getting the frito pie dish at Golden West, I don't know.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I loved that Frito pie! And basically had Frito pie for dinner twice last week. So that was satisfying.

No one has brought us a ham. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate and am enjoying all the baked goods, but it's not exactly healthy eating.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

We had so many pizza strips and calzones when my step grandmother passed, we didn't know what to do with them. We ended up bringing a bunch to the staff of the nursing home.

Mmm, frito pie. Tangentially, I nostalgically bought a can of Campbell's Chili Mac today. Not that I have had Campbell's version before, but I am confident it will be like my cafeteria lunch memories.

How interesting, the geographical differences in funerary food offerings!

So, I finished watching Dark Matter (boo on cancellation!) and can't decide what to watch next on my commute My spreadsheet of TV shows I need to catch up on us in some disarray. . Any suggestions?

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Everyone brought my dad food after mom passed, mostly because my dad's lack of cooking skills was the stuff of legends. He can cook, and he enjoys cooking. But the things he "throws together" make no sense and are really odd.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I just saw a job title I was unfamiliar with. Intimacy director?

Huh. That's a title that requires some context and possibly footnotes.

At least a disclaimer.

Because books.

Also a clue where it is. Intimacy director at the Playboy Mansion could be very different than intimacy director at ... pretty much anywhere else, I think.
