I'm Stale Like Last Week's Bread...

I know, I haven't been posting. I even have stuff on the camera card that I really need to upload to the 'puter. It was momentous: John ate green beans! And didn't complain!

Things You Never Want To Hear In A Kitchen:

CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHUNK

"Uh-oh."'

Quickly inspect thumb.

Whew. Disaster avoided, though my fingernail suffered a fatal wound. I had to put it out of its misery. It's now the shortest of all of my fingernails. I guess good thing for strong fingernails, eh?

Lobster Dinner: A Meal in Pictures


I recently spent a week on vacation in Cape Cod, Massachusetts, with my family. While there, I cooked a couple of meals, my mom and dad cooked a couple, we went out to dinner once, and we had the meal that everyone visiting the New England coast should have: a boiled lobster dinner. We ordered lobster from a fresh seafood place not even a mile away from our beach house in the morning and picked it up that evening, hot and steaming. Here, then, is that meal, told in pictures.
