Full Glass of Wine

I said I would be back with a full glass of wine, didn’t I?  And hey, what other plans would I POSSIBLY have on a Saturday night other than sitting here and chatting to you, or no one.  Luis is out to dinner with friends and I just stuffed myself to the brim with rice […]

It’s Been Awhile

Hello there, random people who read this blog and still check back even when I don’t post.  And hi Dad, this is for you. It’s been so long since I have written on here that I don’t know where to begin or what to say.  I can hardly remember the day before yesterday, let alone […]

Gettin’ Beachy

(I wrote this a couple weeks ago and never posted it, so I will post it now, though it is unfinished). Hey there party people!  How are you?!  I am writing this post from a quiet house- no one is home and the dog is asleep upstairs, but there is the most amazing breeze coming […]

Hello From My New Office

Stress-FULL

Today was Stressfull, with a capital S and emphasis on Full.  It didn’t start out stressfully (not sure if that is a word, but let’s go with it), but it got stressfull very quickly when I opened the first bin of bagels (we store them in fermentation bins overnight) to see that someway, somehow, some […]

I had a dream last night that someone I know (or I knew in my dream, but I don’t know who are they are now), we going to be raising pigs and I was explaining to him that he needs to crop the ears….snip the tails…maybe castrate the pigs.  See Mom and Dad…4H has come […]

Granola and Peaches

This post has absolutely nothing to do with granola and peaches except that I am eating a bowl of granola and peaches and warm milk for breakfast as I type.  The warm milk point is not by choice…it’s just that here in Spain, boxed milk is the common way to purchase milk (and it’s the […]
