Has Suck It Up Become a Food Blog?

Fair Question. I haven't been writing about writing, because it's too friggin' depressing. But,
Bill Loehfelm won the Amazon (ABNA) novel contest and congratulations to him.

The competition for this award was keen, and I've only heard good things about Fresh-Kills, Bill's book. A masterly job.


Last night we had potato pancakes, and the small houseguest ate eight (count 'em) eight. She is a picky eater who doesn't like onion, but somehow these passed all the taste tests. I served them with bacon and sour cream (real) and a peach applesauce at $1.00 a jar from Ocean State Job Lot. We had a chocolat pudding made in the microwave that was ultra-chocolately and very tasty. Serve with lots of whipped cream.

At lunch today at the Museum of Science where we saw the IMAX (Grand Canyon) movie. This was a new one, not the old Grand Canyon. Very good. The museum is perfect for a curious eight year old and was an excellent choice.
