Sorry. Sorry for lying about the whole singing in public thing. Even sorrier for actually singing in public. I may have sounded bad, but there was a guy wearing only underwear and bunny ears that was also singing in public. It happened when friends we met on our last Seabourn […]
I have said it before and I will say it again: I think it is important to accommodate the dietary needs of my dinner guests. Within reason. Since I am on some version of the Paleo diet and not eating any grains, beans, nightshade vegetables and am limiting my dairy, […]
I know some of you may think I am a bit late with this post, but as it turns out, Passover is eight days, so there is plenty of time to still wish you a happy one. Plus, I have been very busy eating and eating at the Seders.
