Welcome!

I've finally decided that I am a writer - all the other things I do just pay the bills. Someone eloquent once said that if you do what you love, the money will follow. Well, let's just see about that.

RIP Aggie

RIP Aggie
Aggie was my fifteen-year-old cairn terrier - or maybe I should say I was her 55-year-old person! She was my faithful companion, spoiled rotten and I am still trying to figure out what to do without her.

Bee is Peter's buddy. He's eight years old and has made himself right at home. I guess cats really do come in pairs or sets of three!

And Jasper makes three!

Jasper is our new guy - the Cat From Another Place. He's four years old and we think he likes it here - so far, so good!

Yes, we have no bananas...

since I made banana nut bread out of them.  Too ripe to eat - just right for bread.  I made two big loaves and then delivered them to my friends Cari and Long.  They are so good to me - and baking is just a small way to show my appreciation.  I also made some honey raisin bran muffins.
They were good warm - but I'm not sure about cold.  Sort of dry.  The recipe needs more oil, I think.  I've never been a big bran muffin fan, but it sounded like a good idea at the time.  I've been trying new recipes with honey - and I'm trying to come up with a honey pie crust.  Wouldn't that be good with fresh peach filling?  Stay tuned...
