Dog Tusseling, or Why Does Kimchi Hate Me?

2010-03-11T07:58:15Z

Photo of Scruffy & Magnus taken by Ms. Jen with a Nokia N97. Wed 03.10.10 - Today was the day I was too be running around errands, finishing up details, laundry, packing, etc etc etc, in preparation for a 6am flight Thursday morning to Austin, Texas. The whole day today was derailed by a nasty light phobic migraine that kept me in bed until around 4pm. It is all the fault of kimchi and my innate pre-travel fridge frugality. I always feel the need to not waste any food that might go off while I am out traveling and I try to make all kinds of interesting dishes before I depart as to not have to throw anything out....

Big Congratulations to Lulu and Myke!

2010-03-10T06:02:35Z

Photo by Ms. Jen of Lulu & Myke with a Nokia N97 at Alex's Bar. Tues 03.09.10 - This afternoon Viv Hernandez told me that Lulu and Myke got engaged on Lu's birthday last Friday night, and then a few minutes later Lulu and Myke showed up at Alex's. I am so excited for Lulu and Myke, not only are they a very good match, but Lu and I have been friends for years through much trials and laughter and I am so damned glad that Lu has found a life love in a good, strong willed man such as Myke. I got to know Myke when we were all in Hawaii last May for Alex & Paige's wedding... Continue reading "Big Congratulations to Lulu and Myke!" | Comments (0)

PBS's Faces of America : Episode 1

2010-03-09T06:55:41Z

More than worth the time to watch as Episode 1 of PBS's Faces of America is excellent. American Stories explores the dynamic and shifting relationship America had with her new immigrants in the 20th century. World war tore apart families and sundered the fabric of many lives, but America beckoned and millions came. Yet, America was an ambivalent host. At its best, a place of refuge and salvation, as for film director Mike Nichols whose entire family escaped Nazi Germany. At its worst, a country that would imprison two generations of Japanese Americans, like the ancestors of Olympic gold medalist Kristi Yamaguchi. Along the way, we'll discover the buoyant American optimism that shaped chance - as in a single... Continue reading "PBS's Faces of America : Episode 1" | Comments (0)
