It was something of a surprise to me to get the notice this morning that we have been writing the blog for 5 years now! It’s our 5th Blog Anniversary!
Category: Musings Page 1 of 2
Deep-ish thoughts, philosophy, and discussions on the meaning of life.
We hope all of our family and friends enjoy time with others and good food on this Thanksgiving Day!
We’ll be back with more family history next week. We are looking forward to opting outside Friday. Walt’s work is always closed on the Friday after Thanksgiving.
You can find my stuffing recipe here.
America celebrates the 4th of July with family gatherings and festivals. Walt and I always enjoy seeing the fireworks.
It’s been a busy few weeks from Thanksgiving to Christmas. We want to wish everyone a happy holidays, whether you celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, the solstice or any other winter celebration.
We’ve decided to stop posting new content every Tuesday, starting this week. We may still post on Tuesdays occasionally, as useful subject matter arises. Michelle will continue to post family history stuff every Friday, at least for now.
For the bold few that read my posts, I extend my heartfelt thanks!
Walt
I’m posting this a day early. Tuesday is Election Day in the US. Whatever your feelings about the candidates might be, Election Day is your opportunity to do something about it. If you can vote, please go vote. I know we’ve written about this before, but it bears repeating. Please go vote.
After so recently relating the death of our kitchen range, it pains me (and my wallet) to inform you of a further loss. Our dear washing machine, Maytag 712, has passed. Born in Newton, IA in 1989, Maytag served two families faithfully until succumbing in June to a sudden transmission failure.
We regret to inform you of the passing of a trusted home appliance, our dear stove, Kenmore Plus. It has featured on this blog many times, being the background for many of the pictures of posts on cooking.
We had a good month off and are back on the blog again. And we did do some fishing. We spent a few days out in the Black Hills of South Dakota with a day trip into Wyoming.
