About
Hello! I'm Alice, which is my real name (most of the other names here have been changed, though, to protect the innocent). I live in an almost-100-year-old house in downtown Chattanooga, TN with my first husband, G-Dog (who is from New Canaan, CT), and a cockapoo named Nonnie (the moniker comes from a Laurens van der Post book). We have one kid (that we know of) -- a daughter, Emmie, who plays a supporting role on the blog. She's off being a student, but she pops in often enough to keep things interesting.
I originally hale from Batavia, NY, a quiet little town in rural western New York. G-Dog and I met while attending college in Carlisle, PA, and then moved on to Chapel Hill, NC together before finally settling in Tennessee. Other places we've lived in long enough to have a mailing address include London and San Francisco.
This blog is about a lot of things -- the places I visit, things I cook, people I meet, photos I take, things I read, and -- of course, politics. I'm an unrepentant, arugula-eating, progressive, liberal, lefty, euro-loving, educated elitist and I'm looking forward to an administration that doesn't raise my blood pressure quite as often as the outgoing one did...

I used to have a few of those older pennies when I was a kid. I lost them at some point. =(
Cool pic. Happy WW!
I heard a story on NPR (love podcasts!) about how pennies and nickels now cost more to make then they are worth.
There’s some trivial information for you this Wednesday!
save um for a rainy day and buy a pack of gum!
Great Wednesday post! I really enjoyed it! Please come check out some cute “Male bonding”
Oh, I love the picture. How old is the one in the middle?
My post: Vrooom!.
Happy WW!
I collect pennies too. Good for you. Happy WW!

Nice juxtaposition. I like the older coins best…especially the Indian head nickel.
