Still here!

I feel as though half the blogposts of late begin with an apology for not posting more often.

The scarcity can largely be attributed three things:

1) nothing new happening
2) Picasa's new format being unwieldy for picture editing (therefore less pictures)
3) 2 to 2.5 hours spent each day on the treadmill (gotta keep Type 2 at bay!)

At any rate, we'll see if we can dredge up some-thing for today...

On the political scene--and speaking for myself--I'm quite content that Newt Gingrich lost Florida. He seems to display an unsteady temperament, coupled with a surplus of grandiosity that manifests itself not in large ideas, but vain attempts to draw the attention of unwitting devotees.

But at least Newt has the actor picked out to play him in a movie.

That's Ma's commentary for the day, and not necessarily the views of the management.

In food news, we had a small breakthrough last evening. While scraping the dusty corners of my mind for a supper idea, I came up with something to jazz up an old standby, scrambled eggs.

There were leftover canned peaches that needed usin' and I decided, "Why not a touch of peach cobbler for supper?" Double as fruit and dessert components.

Sounded like a plan. When Ethan and Trevor discovered the plan however, the plea went up from both, "Can we skip that?"

Yes, I guess it sounded pretty horrible to have hot-out-of-the-oven peach cobbler with their choice of either vanilla ice cream or cold milk.

I blame their taste buds on the deprivation of peach cobbler in their toddler years.

In the end, it was not nearly as bad as anticipated. Nolan took seconds.

And I have a couple of "I was right" cards to play in the future :-)
