Happy Monday, and happy Autumn to those who observe. The only decent thing about cooler temperatures is that I feel like baking again. I baked THREE brand new recipes over the last month, and all three were a success. The…

A letter to Past Me

graphic that says no photos, just words

I was searching my blog to see when I had my last Covid vaccine (October ’24 – I’m not lying when I say this is my diary) and stumbled upon this post from early August of last year. Dear August…

Hello!

About Me

I've been blogging for over twenty (2 decades! 2-0!) years and I'm apparently one of the few over-50 female bloggers who haven't sold out to THE MAN yet; hence this blog remains quirky, homespun, and unprofitable. No big. However, if you're from Disney, Doritos, or Dave Matthews Band, I'm open to talk about selling out.

I live in Southern New Jersey with my husband WM, and our dog Murphy. I'm an adult who likes Disney but not a Disney Adult. I used to work a fun (really!) office job in Philadelphia, but since March of 2020 I'm a work from home hermit. So if you're looking for a childless, slightly round, marginally boring GenX woman's blog to follow, you've come to the right place! :)

A plucky heroine and academically minded hero? A road trip to Key West? Optimism v pessimism?? Adults being adults and using their words to keep disagreements from lasting more than a few hours? Sign me up forever.

Well, that happened.
