That reminds me of a story from my husband's high school days. One of his friends was fixing up a car and had taken the front seat out of it - to replace or repair? Whatever. Anyway, they wanted to take it for a spin so they put a couple of large pails upside down in the front to sit on while drivin...

As for the others, the nearby Central Market (aka Town & Country) had tanks of fresh Dungeness crab, sometimes King crab, oysters, clams and mussels. I liked going to Central Market with my sister when I visited her in Seattle. Have you tried their crab cakes? They are so good! (My sister lives...

So do we want a quick guilty verdict?

Or should this drag on for days so Trump has to sit there for days and days and days?

I'm fine with either.

Matthew 19:14 (NIV version) -

Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”

Asset Stripping

I was at my niece's bridal shower on Saturday and the guests were mostly conservative Christians. They were there to celebrate my niece's upcoming wedding so politics, etc. was not really a thing there. I'm not sure how the subject came up, but I was chatting with the woman who was a horseback ridin...

Civilians put their hand over their heart when looking at the U.S. flag; military folks salute it. If you're not a church-going Christian, you may default to the patriotic manner of showing respect. Yes, it is respectful. It's just not something you would see inside a church. We know Trump doesn't a...

As a Lutheran, I’ve bowed my head at times in church. My dear Catholic-raised husband would sometimes make the sign of the cross at the end of a prayer. But I don’t remember ever having seen a Christian put their hand over their heart when a Christian hymn was played. But then, too, I’ve never heard...

NYTime's blogging on that closing statement - Before he concluded, Todd Blanche asked that the jurors not send his client to prison. Now, with the jury excused, Joshua Steinglass, the prosecutor who will give his side’s closing argument, stands up and objects. “That was a blatant and wholly inapprop...

From Katie Phang -

We've got Closing Arguments beginning this morning at 9:30 a.m. ET in Trump's NY election interference trial. In NY, the Defense goes first and then the Prosecution. There's no rebuttal close so each side gets one bite at the apple (no pun intended).

I became a seafood snob during the decade I lived in Seattle. If I want blackened tilapia from frozen fish I can do that in 7 minutes on my own with $6/lb fish from Costco.

My father-in-law was born in Iowa in 1915 and, growing up, used horses to plow. I know from my husband’s stories that dear FIL was NOT a fan of uncooperative horses! Maybe one reason why FIL became a tractor mechanic rather than a farmer. Tractors don’t have opinions, and FIL was a magician at fixin...
