What's for dinner? This deliciousness.

I'm sad about summer being over.  I am a warm-weather, 12-hours-of-sunshine-a-day person, so summer is my favorite season, and I mourn its passing every year. But, I AM excited to start cooking warm, comforting fall foods! So, I got myself in gear yesterday and made a weekly menu, with a corresponding big, fat grocery list, to get started on some of that good fall cookin'!

Gratitude

I have always had a problem with unfairness, or (more accurately) what I perceive to be unfair.
I can remember as a small child crying to/at my parents over some perceived injustice, wailing,"But it's not fair!" and my father telling me lovingly, but matter-of-factly,"Life is not fair. No one ever said that it was." 
This sensitivity has led me, years ago, to develop my own catch phrase- if I find something to be unfair in my eyes, I say it "violates my sense of fairness".
