Bread Maker, Bread Maker, make me some bread!

Be of good cheer.

Today I met with some people today to move the medicaid process along and it turns out we do not qualify this month because we are so dang wealthy. Oh wait a minute, we are still really poor and are just barely over the limit this summer because we have more hours. Fortunately (?), next […]

We like to pretend we are the chefs who have to come up with our own recipe, but usually we just […]

Miley + Fireworks

Holy cow, I cannot believe it’s been a year since last 4th of July OR that the summer is already half over. At least I’m not taking classes in the fall, so it’s not as sad it usually would be. We have a fun weekend ahead of us, starting with a free outdoor concert tonight, […]
