A New Dishwasher (and a few games along the way)
We’re gearing up for Christmas, a process that is in no way enhanced by having to deal with a broken dishwasher. The problem with having a lot of stuff on is the lack of time to write about it. I have managed to squeeze in some games though. Neon White Part of the beauty of…

Baking and Caking
When life gives you, or rather, doesn’t give you yeast, make sourdough. I have been on and off sourdough since encountering it in Von’s 1000Spirits in Seattle in 2012. I was relatively late to the party (compared to the Epgyptians in 1500 BCE), but in my defence, it wasn’t much of a thing in Northern…

Almost 140,000 novel coronavirus cases and over 5,000 deaths globally. It’s a officially a pandemic. (though we pretty much knew that already,

Destination Disney (and musings on coronavirus)
