PS: gracias

LOOK

if sending a picture through this series of wires and pipes makes you feel threatened by "big brother"

send an old time one- you know eastman-kodak thru the u.s. mail

(i've lost my younger readers-

once upon a time we had a machine with a shutter that controlled time & light.
you could aim it at someone and take their picture. ((after paying someone to develop it))

((you know- eastman-kodak))

you could expect the government to deliver it for 14 cents.

people whom became good at it were called "shutterbugs""

{we are all bugs in amber (kurt vonnegut)



PS: i believed until i was aboot 13 that the only way the machine worked properly
was to point it at your subjects and say " say provolone"

my mom always laughed

yet, in her pictures

all the heads were cut off...

A DAY IN THE LIFE

Let me tell you how i spent the last two days...

(a zookeeper among the upright walking uncaged)

Yawn...


{coming soon to a blog near you)

sweet dreams

DAMN

Today,

i cut myself

burned myself

&

broke a nail.

The triple crown

of manual labor.

PS: i wonder how the less fortunate spent their day.

CONCERNING

That picture never taken-never sent

You. (You know who you are)

in your N.Y. winter caps

:(

one is a jet fan the otro an eagles...

gimme a break (forghettaboutit)

PS: have it your own miserable...

PSS: i'd wave the puerto rican flag for you!

{think of it as the primarys

your candidate lost

let's rally behind the "home" team; amigos}

i decided to celebrate the day

by cooking a special meal.

APPETIZER:

Baked stuffed scallops

(store bought 9 for $3.49)

squeeze of fresh lemon

(succulent)

foreplay...

ENTREE:

Shepherds pie

(a variation)

sweat shallots, celery, carrots, turnips and onion (small dice)

remove from heat.

brown 1 pound ground lamb

mix half the aromatics with 1/2 the lamb in a casserole dish
(save the other half-we will make another meal manana-maybe pasta?)

smother with bernaise sauce

(store bought packet-cheap and idiot proof)

pipe whipped potatoes over the top

covering all

(don't have a piping bag? simply spoon- scoop potatoes over all)

place in oven until duchess potatoes are golden brown

serve piping hot

with garlic toast points

yumm

PS: better than sex

i think i'll finish with a bailey's

and dreams of sugarplums dancing....

(i am a man- when i'm done i rollover and sleep)

CHRISTMAS 2011

who knew?

after all these years

we would all still be here together...

(SOME HAVE LEFT US)

(AND OTHERS HAVE JOINED)

a family intact ...

how great is that?

much love to all
