Sorry to be such a sucky reporter of cookie season. It was so compressed this year. I feel like I missed everything from Nov. 30-Dec. 14 when the party was because all I did was stay home and bake. With a few exceptions: we did go to the Madison Symphony Christmas show on the 7th. … [Read more…]
I haven’t posted in almost a month and I started a post about that, that also summarizes cookie season and the party. But I started that post on Tuesday and it’s already Thursday and it’s not ready to publish. But meanwhile, going through pictures, I discovered quite a few cookies shots. So, until the other … [Read more…]
I’m going to use this post to make an attempt at journal-ling, anyways. Since I haven’t posted for about a week, I thought I’d go back and try to come up with one thing from each day. Or maybe something I cooked. I suspect what is going to happen is some days will have more … [Read more…]

So, Mark went to Chicago for the day Friday without me, and … [Read more…]
Our AFS student is here on a State Department scholarship and at the beginning of the month, they took all the kids to DC, and we think she came back with Covid. The trip was from a Monday to a Thursday and she tested negative on the following Monday after she got back, but then … [Read more…]
It’s been awhile since I’ve written, and it sorta seems that long, but also it sorta doesn’t, like that carton of yogurt I pulled out of the fridge this morning that I thought was kinda new, only to see it’s actually only 2 days away from the end of that week you get after the … [Read more…]
Yesterday we passed a milestone of cookie season. All the leftover cookies have been transferred into smaller containers and they’re in the fridges. I also finished grading yesterday afternoon, although I did have to go back in and change a bunch of grades this morning because I forgot to add points for a lurking assignment, … [Read more…]
