Three Things I Believe.

1. Stoves should last 20 years. Don't you think? Our stove is dying....and it's only about 13 years old. Isn't that too soon?? I think they should last a MINIMUM of twenty years. Isn't that how long my parents' stoves lasted????

2. You should come see Malcolm Holcombe this weekend. The man is a force of nature with brilliant blue eyes who likes to drink pineapple juice. I looked at his reverbnation page and where it says "sounds like" they list David Olney, Bob Dylan and Neil Young. Well yes sir thank you. And yet he doesn't really sound like any of them....he sounds like himself....and like nobody else in the world.

3. My friend V'ron brings FANTASTIC hostess gifts.

Look at this thing of beauty....a blueberry pie with a CORNMEAL crust. Oh MAN.
