Brrr! A chilly wind doth blow this morning! This will be our first weekend with real fall weather — highs in the 50s! Yay!
To celebrate, here’s a random dog that we saw down near the lake in Chicago during our summer travels. Other creatures can be found on the Friday Ark! Have a great weekend, everyone!
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...

We got you beat – highs in teh low 40’s and yes, the S word was in the forecast.
So, Lucy… did you get any?!? I’ll be jealous if you did… is there anything more fun than the first snow of the season?
