Special Note to Fellow Bloggers
Please be aware that there are now wonderful tools, like Akismet (http://akismet.com/), for blocking spam comments that drive bloggers nuts. Actually, the number of blocked spam comments to this blog far outnumber the number of legit comments. I occasionally check to see if perhaps a legit comment may have been mistakenly blocked - I've never found one yet! I say this only because, as a heavy blog reader and commenter myself, some of the spam blocking devices (such as Captcha and other word verifiers) used by bloggers are both irritating and noneffective as well. And I always wonder if blog authors who use those devices realize that they often drive potential readers and commenters away. Think about it folks, if you use a word verifier, you are undoubtedly losing many readers and commenters.

And Just How Friendly Do You Get With Your Pizza?
I’m going to blame our new refrigerator for my almost total escape from my usual and customary baking routine – when we moved the contents of our old freezer into the new, we realized that we had a lot of … Continue reading
The Well Traveled Pancake, in Yet Another Guise
Last week, I read Joanna’s well written post, http://zebbakes.com/2011/06/23/soup-and-pancakes/ on what she delightfully calls, Swedish Evening Pancakes. I love the concept of dishes which can’t be tied down to a particular meal or time of day, such as for example, … Continue reading
Thinking Cheesy Thoughts
Our daughter Melissa’s beloved hails from the Carolinas in the deep South (many non-U.S. southerners do not understand why the Carolinas can be ‘The Deep South’ when Florida is not! Culture and history, my friends.), and has been our guest … Continue reading
