We are doing our family holiday gathering tonight. These are generally fun times, lots of food, very loud people and we manage to have fun and stay sober. (That's what happens when you are formerly Amish.)

Problem Being: Granny has gotten a bit older, so she finds it amusing to make each family sector come up with a production, which was cute when we were, say, eight. Now that the youngest is sixteen, what exactly are we supposed to do? I will forgo detailing embarassing family productions we have done in the past, with the exception of singing "The Twelve Days of A Redneck Christmas" we DESERVE to be embarassed and ridiculed over that, I don't know WHOSE idea that was. Anyway. Our options were rather limited so, we have resigned ourselves to humming Rudolph the Rednose Reindeer with kazoos.


Believe it or not, we are all adults.

This odd narrative is my life. I ended up in Pittsburgh, of all places--from the beach. I have no hobbies, other than cooking excessively and eating microwave popcorn. I enjoy shopping, the Food network, hiding the remote so the Food network cannot be turned off, find ethnic food stores and restaurants and reading voraciously. My life is decidedly pedestrian.


I worked in the car business where I was required to be ruthless and soul-less wench, which is when I started this project. Since then, I've kept it up because secretly, I've always wanted to join the military. Every male in my mother's family has joined and I quietly entertain thoughts of joining. I haven't yet and don't know if I ever will, but sending the troops cookies keeps me sane. it makes me think I still have a shred of human kindness left in my withering soul. it's a small way for me to salute the men and women who are brave enough to fight for freedom. And makes me feel like I'm contributing toward troop morale--even if I'm not. So if you want to help, send me addresses of troops you know stationed overseas. you may also contribute toward the cost of chocolate chips, but don't feel obligated, that link is here only by request.
