I feel this is unfair. For me, sunshine signifies warmth, and when I wake up in the morning and see blue, sunny skies, I believe in my heart that it’s because spring is finally here and that Florida girls like me can stop hiding hibernating in my apartment. But it’s not true. It’s still 22 degrees.

Curses.

In other news, I’ve given it a lot of thought, and decided that until such time that a title for my latest book is chosen, I shall be calling it Knights in Black Polyester. Since that’s way more interesting than “SSG4,” no?

Here’s her pot roast:


And here’s my version:On the new plates from my wedding no less. (I made rosemary potatoes instead of mashed. )
