When she came visiting on Tuesday, she came bearing this dish with the Minnesotan hot dish her grandmother made legendary. The last time I had it was over 15 years ago when she was still with us. Aunt Judy…this stray of yours still misses you terribly! But you trained Meghann well… :)

I would have SO loved to have done something this cheeky when I've been made redundant and I'd be forced to attend an "exit interview" with HR under threat of them not paying severance (which is illegal as hell but HR counts on the fact that most people are usually so shocked that they don't think of ringing up the Wage and Hour Division and filing a complaint). If you've never experienced one, thank your…

My first visit to the site of the attacks on the World Trade Centre was in April of 2009.

Even though our current President's "negotiations" via Twitter with the Kingdom of Denmark over the proposed purchase of Greenland were at best ham-fisted and then petulant and insulting toward the good people of Denmark...there are times that he (or whoever tweeted this) does actually show something approximating a sense of humour. I don't care who you are...that was right funny!
