I used to love it when the first SweetTart out of the roll was a cherry one. I hated moving from country to country as an Air Force family, but I really loved meeting and exchanging with new peoples and cultures. I love dogs, but hated it when I had to undergo a very painfulContinue reading “Love/Hate”

No News
Here’s a thought. How about we go to weekly newscasts? Think about it. What changes from day-to-day? The same hatreds (maybe a few new ones even), the same prejudices (maybe a few new ones even). I don’t need a morning caucus of chowderheads like that Dilton Doily-looking dumbass Joe. Talk about an egomaniacal misogynist. LetContinue reading “No News”
Grey Divorce
I had no idea what that even was until some family members we have are going through issues after forty years. Forty years. I don’t have a clue about the new ways of going about getting married, as I was one of those saps that did the whole “struck by a thunderbolt” thing when IContinue reading “Grey Divorce”
Still Not Ready
I predicted it before the misguided advertising campaign of Anheuser-Busch which has led to the death of Bud Light. In the haste to be open, inclusive, and in an effort to improve the species, SOME true believers are swaying others with much less conviction, to confront, and more importantly, accept concepts they do not completelyContinue reading “Still Not Ready”
Just Don’t
Sage advice indeed. When you see a small animal in the wild in need of help, you naturally want to pick them up and hold them in a sign of affection. Just don’t. You have taken them away from their natural family and ensured they will never again be able to live free like theyContinue reading “Just Don’t”
No Excuses! Again
I’ve been lolly-gagging and dilly-dallying now for two years since I said I would write my second book, my first novel. I have titled it If Only…, and if you were following my blog way back then, here’s what I said: About the Book If Only… represents my first full-length novel. The bookContinue reading “No Excuses! Again”

Where Did My Appetite Go?
There is irrefutable evidence that I had one; I didn’t get up to 275 pounds at one point by going on the Gandhi diet. No, I earned my stripes honestly. Consider a typical working day of a French Chef (me): 4am Wake up (or stay awake from night before). Do several wake-me-up lines of cocaineContinue reading “Where Did My Appetite Go?”
Just Sayin’
The first story that catches my eye was about how a person was denied a position by a recruiter because she wanted to negotiate their salary. What’s the problem? At the height of my career as an Executive Chef, I was recruited by TGI Fridays to be their Corporate Chef down in Texas. The recruiterContinue reading “Just Sayin’”
I’m Shaking My Head
When I think of the state of education in this country. Critical thought is dying, replaced with the ramblings of frightened white people who want to shape the future for young students. Nope, no such thing as slavery. Never happened. God? Never happened. You can deny all you want, you can further propagate the liesContinue reading “I’m Shaking My Head”
