http://housewifeseye.blogspot.com/2006_02_01_archive.html
Observations from a wife, mom and grandma. Tuesday, February 21, 2006. The only respite comes on the infrquent occasions when we eat out, or when we have lots of left-overs. (We've been working on a beef pot roast for several days now. I have to think of something different for supper tonight.). I don't even bother to squeeze orange juice when I can just eat an orange. Posted by Mom at 11:48 AM. Wednesday, February 08, 2006. Jimmy Carter's latest book is Our Endangered Values:America's Moral Crisis.

Observations from a wife, mom and grandma. Friday, July 01, 2005. I didn't recognize the artist's name, but when I saw his work, I realized I'd already seen a couple of his pieces in other places - - very large clusters of blown pieces hung as chandeliers. The exhibit at CSFAC also showcased several other series, created over a period of 30 years. Posted by Mom at 8:45 AM. View my complete profile. Liz James Art Scene. Dressing for a Gallery Opening.

Conlon had majored in English at Harvard, but when he entered the police department, he didn't think his academic qualifications would be an asset. He describes how he filled in forms about his background:. After class ...

Housewife's Eye: December 2005
http://housewifeseye.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
Observations from a wife, mom and grandma. Saturday, December 31, 2005. We woke up Saturday morning with no electrical power. That was not surprising after a very windy, rainy night. But what could we do until the power was restored? I considered cleaning house with a dust cloth, broom and Swiffer mop, but it wasn't hard to resist the impulse. I'm too fond of my Roomba robot vac. At last, in mid-afternoon, the power came back on. Both of us headed immediately for our computers, and the day, which had...

Observations from a wife, mom and grandma. Friday, April 29, 2005. I was in the neighborhood, it was lunch-time and there were a few small items I wanted to pick-up. I hadn't been to IKEA for several months, and an hour spent there would be a nice break. Well," I answered, "I brought a book to read.". I have a nice convertable I bought at IKEA a couple years ago," I replied. "But items at IKEA do tend to come and go. Let me look in the sofa department and see if I can spot something.". I'll return to IKE...

Housewife's Eye: June 2005
http://housewifeseye.blogspot.com/2005_06_01_archive.html
Observations from a wife, mom and grandma. Saturday, June 18, 2005. Family history has been a long-time hobby of mine, and in the process of locating relatives, living and dead, I've run into people who have a strong need to create a paper family. I would say that the primary pleasure of genealogy for me is the intellectual challenge of the research. But, come to think of it, once I discover additional living relatives, I don't really go out of my way to meet them in person. So maybe I too, am mo...They'...

Housewife's Eye: August 2005
http://housewifeseye.blogspot.com/2005_08_01_archive.html
Observations from a wife, mom and grandma. Monday, August 29, 2005. Eat Plenty of Fruits and Vegetables. The food was of gourmet quality, and although I wasn't really hungry afterward, I still wished for a piece of bread. And I would never spend the time (two or more hours) this cook spent peeling, slicing, and dicing. I'll never adopt a strict low-carb diet (and I'm not convinced of the heath benefits). But now I'm eating plenty of fruits and vegetables. Posted by Mom at 5:41 PM. Bryson is my kind of tr...
