Little drinkie, little snackie
Saturday, June 5, 2010
Both Mary Corsini, my parents’ good friend and charmingly wacky, superstitious, next-door neighbor lady, and Lea Worcester, the Mary Corsini of my generation, would often have occasions when they’d invite you to come by, for a little drinkie, little snackie – basically cocktails and appetizers. When my brother lived in Minneapolis, and was married but [...]
Heat ennervation
Tuesday, May 25, 2010
My mom used to say that the heat of summer made her exhausted. I think that’s how I’m feeling today. Except it’s been going on for longer than just today. I’m not feeling too creative, and I think the posts show it. My stuff to cook list is not all that deep right now – [...]
Cupcakes with kids
Monday, May 3, 2010
On Saturday, I put on a cupcake decorating 8-year old’s birthday party, with eight little girls. And me and one nanny and the birthday girl’s mom & dad. It was a lot of fun. I made a double batch of yellow cupcakes – it was the batter that ate New York – it should have [...]
It’s Johnny’s birthday
Thursday, March 18, 2010

John went down to Iowa City last night to see Every Time I Die and I haven’t heard from him yet, though I did text him his [...]
David & Mimi at FHR
Thursday, March 4, 2010
Last week, in addition to my brother’s weekly post about the hijinks (in their own words “Bikes, beer can baseball with a U lock, random nutsacking, free beer, another perfect night.”) he and his bike gang get up to every Thursday night, my brother wrote about FHR – the Fucking Hills Race, a Sunday afternoon, [...]
My kid’s on YouTube
Monday, February 1, 2010
I know, I know, not so exciting, millions of people’s gots kids on YouTube …. But John got a new camera, and shot this vid of a building that burned down in Milwaukee. It was a pretty popular pizza place, plus the fire blocked off a major road in the city for a few days, [...]
The holidays are not quite over
Saturday, January 2, 2010
It’s kind of nice the way new year’s fell this year – the eve was Thursday, the day was Friday – so now it’s Saturday and it’s like our second Sunday in a row, and we still have another real Sunday tomorrow. Then I guess it’s back to cold hard reality Monday.
Here’re some pictures of [...]
