Undercover Cat

I've been thinking that I may post a recipe for rustic Italian bread. This is the type of bread that you would see in bread shops: you know, piled in wicker baskets. I have made it several times and it has always turned out great. I would also like to mention that Koko and Yum Yum have gotten "The Big Head" and have gone commercial (smooth transition, huh?). They decided that they have become "too big" to just reside here on my site, so they branched-out and have developed their own product line. If you're interested, here's a link to Koko and Yum Yum's store. I have to admit that I've been having fun playing around with it.


Hey, I'm sleepin' over here...

I've Switched to Disqus

You may notice something different here the next time you comment. You see, I've become fed-up with Blogger and their constant problems, so I have decided to give Disqus a try. I have also decided not to import my old comments over to their system, so you will see old Blogger comments on the older posts and Disqus on all of the new posts. I know it may sound weird to do that, but let's just say that I don't want to take any chances.

Now, onto the commenting part: I realize that all of you comment on other sites that use a variety of different commenting systems, so I won't go into a lot of detail on how to leave a comment, but for those that may be new here, I'll go over it briefly...

Yum Yum's a Fan

Firstly, I would like to announce the winner of the Cheerios "Do What You Love" Giveaway. After visiting the random number generator at Random.Org, the winner is... Barbara Monty.


Congratulations Barbara and I would once again like to thank all of you who entered.



In order to cool the house down, we usually put a fan in the back door. Note, this fan is ON and set on high...


This fan is actually sucking air out of the house, while fans in other windows are blowing air in. I learned this little trick from one of my HVAC friends.
