A little Ave Maria for New Years Eve

Ave Maria on Uncle Davy's Magic Piano from Fifth House Ensemble on Vimeo.

Madonna's a little less well off than we thought

They're using my font. Again.

Regina Pizzeria at the Solomon Pond Mall, you used the shareware version of the font. Pony up and I'll let you have some lowercase letters, and even an ß.

Also, what's a K1 (space) (space) (space) Kids Meal Kids?

Cheese and you

Got this in the Kitchen Store in the mall. The great part (apparently) was saying "when we get home, we'll have to cut some cheese."

Because, you know, like.

Glow golf. I'm not making this up.

Nothing says fun with blacklights like a golf ball.

You first.

That Winter light

Yeah, well, I EXPECTED it to be orange

Dinner

Kind of a drag

The 2012 Christmas tree is officially in its final resting place.

Curiosity filled the cat

The beginning of a snowstorm. In the dark.

Kickles

Two jars of homemade spicy pickles were in the holiday-pak™ from my sister Jane. Wow, do they have a kick. Eat one little slice and it's eye-opening. Two and you run for the fire hose. That's got to be either habañero or Scotch bonnet at the bottom of that jar.

Update: Jane informs me that the peppers in the mix are Trinidad Scorpion. I have no idea what that means.

No, really

I'm on vimeo! Really I am! Witnesseth

As sister Jane's holiday-pak™ arrives

And at least one of my siblings knows something about me. Maybe uncomfortably so.

And by the way, it's "badass". Or, as in the marking for prélude #15, in Italian, it's cattivoculo.

Why did none of you tell me this was out there?

I wish I knew of a use for all of these

And it's tuned in fifthes, like a violine

The first grilled cheese!

So ... we have a new panini grill. To test it, I made a grilled cheese.

It was lovely.

I am on vimeo

Really I am. This is obviously a closely guarded secret.

The Grammy people sound pissed

More of Christmas

Tacchino. Stufato.

E non cucinato ancora.

The retool year

2012 was the year of complete appliance retooling. Last piece of the puzzle.

Not pictured: panini grill. And Lean Mean Fat Reducing Grilling Machine (George Foreman Grill) — bye bye. We totally forgot we had you.

This one doesn't go to eleven

Making everything count.

First opened Christmas present

Four squeezy birds.

Grammy voting open

Can you believe I get to vote for song and album of the year?
