We recently had dinner at the home of some wonderful neighbors — good food, wine, and music, great friends, and as a special bonus, we got to hang out with Buford, one of the coolest dogs in the world.
In other news, the summer heat has arrived. We’ll be staying inside this weekend, as the temps reach for 100°F. Blah. But maybe this means I’ll get to do some cooking… And on a more positive note, there are always new creatures on the ark! Have a wonderful weekend!
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...

What a beautiful dog! And a great photo! B&C
That’s quite the look! Those eyes are a bit startling at first. Good pic! (What’s with the moiré effect around his head? Looks like you shot through a screen.)
love it….LOVE IT!
