Pieces and Parts
I wasn’t going to write tonight, but dinner was so good I couldn’t help myself. I’m going to leave you this dinner in photos. No recipe, no step by step, no how to, no instructions. I was too busy watching No Reservations (again) to concentrate on how I made this [...]

Are You a Turtle?
I know, I know, it doesn’t make sense. I don’t think it’s supposed to. It’s like the question … Are you a turtle? These were the things of my childhood. Back in the day when things were simple and — well — just plain non sensical and silly. [...]

Seriously, Should the Digital Age Be This Stressful?
I find it difficult to believe Verizon FiOS could cause such a nightmare for me and I’m ready to launch a blog that is all about this, but why waste my time. What I need to do is get out of my contract and get back to [...]

Another Successful Grilling Event!
I rushed home after a day of errands. Who said a day off is really a day off anyway? I woke up and spent over 1.5 hours on the phone with Verizon. That was not a good start to the day. Verizon, you’re growing so fast you don’t [...]

Great Gift!
A couple of years ago my parents bought me a grill for my birthday. I loved it. It served me well. But this season when I went out to the balcony to fired up the grill plug in the grill, it wouldn’t heat up properly. The thermometer on the outside [...]

I woke up and knew I’d need to cook the chicken breasts I’d defrosted a couple of nights ago so as soon as I was awake enough to get into the kitchen I put on my apron and got to work.
It was nothing extravagant, just delicious.

Food and FiOS’
I raced home after work and another trip to the market to buy demo supplies for the store to hook up the set top box and see if FiOS TV was really working. André, the installer left me a message late this afternoon telling me he got the TV issues resolved and [...]

Verizon and That’s All I’m Gonna Say
Well, not really. I have a long and sordid story about the FiOS installation that is as of this moment … 11:07pm EST on June 17, 2009 … Unresolved. Unfinished. Unsatisfactory.

Debate ——–> Is it Supper or Dinner?
One day a customer asked me if I say Supper or Dinner and what the difference is. Good questions. I use both terms and the difference? I don’t use the term Supper much anymore but really, the difference to me is simple — Supper [...]

Come to Cyprus
So let’s start out with a fact. I’m not youthful. Well, not outwardly right now. In my head, sure I feel like a kid sometimes, but the inexperience, enthusiasm, idealism, innocence, or indiscretion of a young person, maybe not so much. Wiki says that the term Salad Days was [...]
