                                               Banned in Yarmouth?


     Yarmouth is a town on Cape Cod. When I published Cooking for Dykes over a year ago, several local book stores agreed to sell my work. ...

For Instance: Bitching Time

3/31/13: Just lost it. Spent precious time composing a message for blog, but forgot to save as a draft and hit the wrong symbol. Lost. Ever do that? Anyway Joyous Holy Week to all.

I could title this message Ding-A-Ling for more reasons than one.   Recently, I purchased a cell phone manufactured in Europe. Reasonable and has no camera, who needs it, and other, to me useless stuff. I was using it in place of a land line phone, which ...

Recipes and Such

8/25/12: It never rains, but... Sometimes the precip is good, though. I had been inundated with electronic fixits between my new cell phone, two adapters for the TV and a modem I had to install. About that time I had starting a new venture, microgreen growing. It is experimental for me, and obtaining the equipment meant scrounging around the garden supply stores. Time. All this took time.
   The doorbell rang yesterday. It was my ...

But Who's Counting?

11/5/11: So, 179 hits yesterday, 40 looks at Who Said That, 99 at other categories. Now that we've gotten that over with--will have something more to say after today. Will be going with some Cape Occupy members as a presence at a political rally. Hope others throughout the country get involved. Keep it peaceful, folks.

11/3/11: If you wonder what I look like, go to "Who Said That" in Trivia category. Scroll down--way down. Of course, I was in my ...

FYI

7/25/12: Want to save money? To begin, my old clunker of a TV in the bedroom suddenly croaked. I called some local stores. A name brand was available, a 24"led with built-in DVD for $300. I checked with another store and they had it for a little less but i would have to wait for delivery.
   Okay, I checked Best Buy*. They had their own brand side by side with the big-name brand. It has the exact-same features, but. The big ...

Household Tips

Window Sills: Have trouble cleaning the dirt just outside your windows. You know, the grungy strip between the inside window and the screen and/or storm window. Where I live, the spring brings yellow pollen that eventually turns to dirty looking crud. You can suck most of it out with a small vac, but the little corner areas are hard to get at. Tried a toothbrush with some success, although when I went through my artist brushes, ...

Who Said That?

                            

    1.  "Life is something that happens while you are busy making other plans." 
    
    2.  "A hobby is something crazy you do to keep from going crazy."
     
    3.  "Who is Stevia?"    
 
    4.  "This American system of ours, call it Americanism, call it capitalism, call it what you
will, gives each and every one of us a great opportunity if we seize it with both hands
and make the most of it."

Outdoor Shows

4/27/12: Talk about benign neglect. I have not forgotten art, though I have been hitting into the Occupy movement of late, as you can probably see when you open my blog most days. For several years before the movement came into being, I concentrated on writing. My first book is out now, but I don't have the energy to push my literary contribution. The only way I can see it as a bestseller is if I murder someone and get in the newspapers. It's a crazy world.
   The reason I am telling you this is ...
