Mark’s in Chicago so this is one of my single girl nights. I had a big salad for dinner and ate while I watched the Wire – that is, I re-watched selections of the season four finale. The selections where I fell asleep last night. I roasted vegetables for the crazy roasted vegetable sauce. I […]
I hung new blinds in the kitchen today, replacing the 13-year-old ones that were there. I still need to go over and do E. Wash. If I was really a landlord, I guess I would’ve taken the old ones over there, instead of buying all new. But the old ones were really dirty and faded, […]
