  1. The Unforgivable

    This is something I wrote up for fun. In lieu of my last post about my humur that others do not get. Well this is an example of that. I wrote this poem intended it to be a bit of dark humur

    The Unforgivable

    You know that it is true
    anything I would do for you
    my loyalty is without bounds

    Blood upon your hands
    not a question I ask
    while I throw away the gun
    and dispose of the body

    Upon the stands the

  2. Making Tomato Puree

    This blog is mostly for Motherhubbard and Scher since they were interested. But of course anyone might find this interesting.

    This is our home process for making and canning (really jarring) tomato puree. This is an annual ritual for my family. The only year of my lifetime when we didn't do this was the year my father's health had deteriorated and ultimately passed away. That was two years ago. But I don't recall any other year of my 46 years were we didn't can tomatoes.

    Thirteen Stairs

    “What are you doing, Edward! Let go of me! That hurts! You were choking me!” Fiona Travis accused. “My God, you could have killed me!”

    “I am going to kill you, Fiona. That was a sample. In three days at midnight exactly, I intend to rid myself of you. I have done it before, you know. Another murder won’t weigh on my ...

  5. Greetings from Gopher Prairie

    Just finished Main Street by Sinclair Lewis. Loved it. It's an interesting view into small town life. Carol Milford, a college graduate from Minneapolis, marries a physician from Gopher Prairie and moves to the town with the intent of reforming it with the arts and some modern ideas. She quickly becomes disillusioned by the extent of the satisfaction that the town folk are comfortable with their town and their lives in it. What results is an almost constant conflict between Carol and the 'way ...
