ok, so i got to watch keen eddie tonight....a show on fox that i like almost as much as monk........which is the kiss of death for both....shows that i like tend to cancelled.......shows that i like are few and far between...which is why we don't get cable...i would watch just about anything to be sure i got my money's worth........

andrew is out, and scw is on a plane somewhere over the atlantic, and cayle is asleep.......at somepoint the nest will be empty.....i am not ready for this prospect..........

i am reading a book called on rue tatin, about a food writer who buys a house in normandy...you know the formula...she and her sculptor husband spend loads of time and effort, and experience mapcap adventures turning their delapidated former nunnery into a wonderland.......... with a professional kitchen so she can test all of her recipes at home......of course, i am so envious, as i would love to have a professional kitchen in which i can just dabble with recipes.........my own personal professional kitchen is a mishmash of equipment bought secondhand...i would love to have a kitchen decked out the an aga........and a double clearglass doored reachin.....and a really cool copper sink, and a wine cooler......and a real woodburning stove in the corner......what else....maybe i am not dreaming large enough.........oh yea,,,,,copper pots hanging from the beams.......except copper never looks good for long........but in dreams it will gleam..........i suppose i could ive in normandy....close enough to paris for short trips to town but with a country feel.....well, not really live.....just visit several times a year and rent it out the rest fo the time........
