The Dice Were Hot Last Night!

I rolled a Yahtzee not even five minutes into the game. Haven't done that in years.

Have a peaceful weekend.

When you're hot, you're hot!

I haven't played Yahtzee since I was a kid. Now I'm going to have to go and buy some.
Doh!

Yahtzee! I love that game. I organized a match last winter that was just grand. We called missed Yahtzees "Shitzees" (Kieran pointed out that they should be called "Crapzees," in honor of the dice).

As we say here in New England, it sounds like you had wicked great time.

Oh how fun! I'll have to find my Yahtzee game tonight! My teenagers will probably groan, but we have to keep Yahtzee alive and passed down through the generations!

Dive: buy it.

Sassy: Crapzees is what I usually play.

Kim: my teenagers actually like it, I think.

Rich: And peace be to you.

Anonymous: thanks. I'm sorry I told you you were going to hell.

Lynn: play Yahtzee with Dive so he doesn't have to play alone. And I swear, if Ame shows up and makes something untoward out of that comment...

Old Knudson: I don't get it.

#1: I didn't know. But thanks for telling me. Knowing that allowed me to make her reply personal.

Robyn you were right, Ame showed up and yes, she put the 'I' word on your blog!
If Dive and i ever play Yahtzee i'm sure pictures will be taken and posted. lol. Maybe it won't happen because i have a mobile phone AND boobs of a womanly proportion. There may be a sign at the door prohibiting my entry.

Lynn, she certainly did, didn't she. Ame, don't soil the place with spicey talk. I would love to get a Texas Hold Em version, but I barely even know how to play the card game. I should probably learn that before I try to play it with dice.

And Lynn, I have a cell phone too, and am none too skinny, so we would both be shut out at athe door, I'm afraid. His loss, isn't it, the snob.

Happy Birthday To...

Pope Leo IX (the Pope) JCF Bach (German composer) Jane Russell (of Gentlemen Prefer Blonds fame) Daniel Carter Beard (founder of the Boy Scouts of America) Jean-Paul Sartre (French philosopher) Maureen Stapleton (Academy Award winning actress) Mariette Hartley (who?) Prince William of Wales (the prince) but most importantly, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 45 years ago today, I was born in Alabama in a small town on the banks of the Tennessee River. Yesterday, someone asked me if my family has any birthday traditions. The answer is no. My family never cared very much, but I do remember a few birthday highlights. I was given a birthday party in the back yard when I was ten years old. Two years later, my sister got married on my birthday, so I was just a bit overlooked, although I did get a stuffed animal--it was a white Yorkshire terrier with an AM radio in its stomach. When I turned 20, a different sister took me to an outdoor performance of Dvorak's New World Sympho...

You Just Never Know

This newspaper gig has brought some interesting things. Because of it, I have met all kinds of people and learned all kinds of things. I have interviewed a potter, a stained glass artist, a horse barn owner, Guatemalan immigrants, winery operators and a woman with two uteruses. That last one may seem odd, but she's one of the few women in the world who has given birth to surviving twins, each developing in its own womb (you can see the adorable kids and read the article here ). I have learned about antique steamer trunks, dandelion wine, the history of steel drums and that people in Papua New Guinea are being evacuated from their island because of rising sea levels. I've read books on the repercussions of factory farming, and I've researched childhood obesity—did you know that Ohio ranks 17th on a list of US states in order of weight? Yet, someone in my own town would comment online suggesting we leave our poor kids alone. The other day I was in a court room to cover a case...

Everybody Needs A Little Crème Brûlée

I went out to dinner with some friends the other evening and ordered crème brûlée for dessert. It was lovely—crispy sugar crust and creamy custard underneath. I'm a bit of crème brûlée fan and order it more often than I order any other restaurant dessert, which is not to say I always order dessert—only now and then. On my way home, I remembered I had a crème brûlée kit at home with ramekins, a torch, and a basic recipe. I love the torch. So, now I have made my favorite dessert at home, and I recommend that everyone have crème brûlée. It makes the world better. I used the recipe on the box, which was simple and basic. My only suggestion for improvement is to use less sugar for the caramelized crust. It was so thick, it was like chipping away at glass. An ice pick would have come in handy, or a diamond. Other recipes suggest 1/4 cup to be divided among six ramekins, making just over 1 tablespoon per serving. Crème Brûlée serves 4 1 cup heavy cream 2 extra large egg yolks (I used 3 re...
