...If Jon would ever let himself be photographed, we could post some of his old photos.
(*hint hint* Jon's family!) But as he himself said in protest at having his school photo
taken for his elementary school yearbook, "You don't need a picture of me, you already
know what i look like!" Sooooooooooo Jon.

Asian Sunday Dinner

Shiitake & Tatake !!!



This Sunday evening, we gathered around the geeked out table of nerd games
to partake in Jon's Iron Chef Challenge-winning Chilled Beef Tatake
and Susan's (stolen recipe) Asperagus-shiitake seasame stirfry. Now, one of my
least favorite things is half-cooked (or as fancy people call it "medium rare") meat,
nor do i like cold meat when not in the middle of two pieces of bread with mustard
and all the veggie fixings... But, i ate the CRAP out of this beef tenderloin marinaded
for hours. It was truly tender and flavor-bursting. Compliments to the chef!

Anyone can cook!

Welcome!

I am still in the process of collecting photographs and organizing my information, but I invite you to come back later. I am so excited about this site, and hope to have some hairstyles up soon. Do you have a favorite era, movie, or even specific style you would like to see? Comment or email me - your selection could be the first to debut on Historical Hairstyles!!

Best wishes,
Amy

Flaming Fall

The best part of the year is when the leaves unmask and reveal their true colors.

Sweaters, fires in fireplaces, crisp blue skies, red crunchy apples, pumkin spice candles...

Here are some snapshots of our Lind-Bohanon neighborhood:

Look how red this bush is!

A bouquet of red maple leaves.

My favorite ... Fall. The beginning of the best time of year and all the best holidays.

And smells.

Bratty catty & Good dog

This one (aka Napoleon) nearly bit the dust last week when he almost bit my face off.

For the FIFTIETH TIME!!!

It was "new home" or "death" ...



Not even Margie's sheparding skillz worked.



...He seemed to sense that something was up and had a cat conference about it over dinner one day.



...afterwhich he seemed unbelievably cuddly, as if to prove himself to me.

And i decided that he could stay. How could i break these two up?




Or these two?

Jon's Beloved.

Another Sunday Dinner

This was Chicken with apple, pear, and Camembert potatoes.

It was screamingly delicious.
