My mother's recipe for crabmeat sandwiches (she got it from her friend Leona McClimans) traveled with me from Wisconsin to California 35+ years ago. Now I am back living in Wisconsin and last night I revisited the recipe for my Saturday night supper. It was a splendid evening making delicious food: crabmeat sandwiches, peanut butter cookies and tomato bisque soup...and then enjoying a Tanqueray & tonic on the deck as the sun set.
Now on this Sunday morning I am sitting here listening to the beautiful music of "Sacred Concert" on KDFC while sipping coffee. Outside the clouds are gathering for an afternoon of rain. And that is ok...for I have no plans but to curl up with a good book. The book I am reading is John Connolly's The Wolf in Winter. The book is one of his Charlie Parker series which combines a thriller with a touch of the supernatural. I love his books.
This morning I fleetingly touched upon the memory of my last job and the workplace/environment that was there. Toxic would be a good word to describe it. I survived 14 years with my well-being somewhat intact. However, I now recognize that the last few months since I retired...have been a time of healing and of "letting go."
Now I am ready to explore the passions of my life: this blog, photography, writing, sketching and painting. To this blog I want to add a small review section of the restaurants and bars in Northwestern Wisconsin. There are a ton of undiscovered restaurants and bars...and dives that need to be discovered. How I am going to do this, I am not sure but the idea is percolating along.
E'nuff!
