Okay, so it’s Thursday, not Wednesday. But Wednesday was wonderful, and you should know about it. It all started on Monday (or sometime thereabout). Scott emailed one of his best friends from high school/college and said that he wished he knew how to make said friend’s mom’s Chinese dumplings. Just a random, friendly email. Emails…
Normal at the Library
It’s been a big week or so at the library, and to celebrate my day off, I’m going to blog about public libraries. Yep. (Don’t worry, I spent a chunk of the day learning how to make Chinese Pork Dumplings. That deliciousness will be posted soon.) I already told you how awesome the blog “I…

Simple Apple Slaw on Cranberry BBQ Turkey Sliders
Well, it turns out that making an entire turkey for two people means meat for at least two weeks. We’re still working our way through last week’s turkey. Last night, that meant trying out Giada’s Cranberry Barbeque Sauce Turkey Sliders. It was good, even if I edited it a bit to make it easier. In…
