Rain Does Not Inspire...


the other addiction...

A lesson was learned yesterday afternoon. Doug was busy watching the football game so I decided to make some chocolate chip cookies from scratch. I am actually quite good at this and I brought all the ingrediants from NYC to Greenwich.

The one thing Doug didn't have was a proper cookie sheet. He did have a grill from his broiler, so I just covered that in aluminum foil and figured it would work. Strangely, all the cookies came out flat. They tasted great, but they just looked a little strange.

Then I realized that the grill was jagged and wasn't distibuting the heat evenly. Talk about a total science project. It has now become my business to make sure Doug has proper cookie sheets, at all times. (I may not cook a lot but I do like to bake.)

It's a lazy, rainy day here in New York. I can see everyone kind of dragging.

Tired of going to Aruba every winter? Me, too. Maybe a dog sledding tour is a better idea.

The real "O" of approval is not Oprah, it's Osama. This man sold more copies of his book because Osama gave it a mention.

New York is a funny place. You can sleep on the subway, you can pandhandle on the subway, but you absolutely must wear pants.
