Proof that Bill and I were just ‘meant to be’ can be found in this video. This is the kind of stuff that entertains us for hours on end… we did a little experiment with some packing peanuts. I’m not sure if these have been around for ages but it is impressive to see what…
Have a hankie nearby…
I haven’t even watched an episode of this season of American Idol… I don’t like all of the audition episodes. But this screened last night… How beautiful was Steven Tyler when he was talking to her? I hope he goes far – I thought his voice was lovely.
Yes, Jenelle. Snow is actually cold.
Bill took this video of me making my first snow angel and the first time I’ve ever laid down on snow! In all of our previous storms I have never had the chance to really enjoy it. With this though, I didn’t realize Bill was filming. So embarrassing but a fun memory. For some reason…
Snow… again!
Last night we got hit with another snow storm that ended up dumping a lot more snow than what was predicted. It has been a couple of crazy weeks for me – I have been offered a job and will start on Monday and at the same time have been stuck in bed this week…

About ten years ago there was a movie on the Australian Hallmark Channel called Norman Rockwell’s Breaking Home Ties. I…
Snow day baking
Last Friday we had a beautiful snow storm here that created the most delightful snowflakes ever… they weren’t really flakes they were puffs! It was like cotton wool balls slowly falling from the sky. Just beautiful! I tried to capture it in photos but snow like this doesn’t photograph as beautiful as it looks… so…

Venice. 1999. I cannot cannot cannot wait to get back there!
On the 12th day of Christmas…
I finish up the 12 days of Christmas blogging challenge with a pretty mundane day actually! I started my name change process. UGH! The Social Security office here in Brooklyn is so crazy that it opens at 7am… yes a government office! The lines normally snake through the building and out on the street. A…

It makes me very sad that I cannot get hold of this in New York. A Double-Double from In-N-Out is one of the greatest meals ever. Ever. This photo is from my 2007 holiday. Love the In-N-Out on Sunset!
