Turn out the light after you hop in bed

Yet, again, we were both in bed, and neither of us had turned out the overhead light. In the almost two years we’ve been married, I’ve run out of fingers and toes to count the number of times we both assume the other will turn out the overhead light and end up cozied under the [...]

Design Build

In the midst of today’s browsing, I’ve discovered a term that’s new to me–”Design Build.” It’s the term that D.R.

What Makes a Milkshake Good?

So, let’s start from the beginning. What one ingredient is basic to every milkshake? Pretty much, every milkshake uses–go figure–milk. Milk seems like a common enough bare-bones sort of ingredient, but have you looked at the shelves at the grocery store recently?

Top 10 Fast Food Milkshakes

Ok, I’ll readily admit it.  I’m a milkshake lover. And I’ve tried almost every restaurant’s strawberry milkshake across the planet.  (Ok, not quite every, and not quite across the planet).  But, I do love strawberry milkshakes. Looking at my favorite fast food shakes, I’m going to touch on each one and not even do it [...]
