Rotisserie does not, to my surprise, refer primarily to a way of cooking meat. The stuff I subscribe to for homeschooling kids frequently teaches me new things, too 🙂 The principal contributor to loneliness in this country is television. What…
Randomness for Monday!
I’m already missing Katie. Shelley is, too. Cheerfulness and contentment are great beautifiers and are famous preservers of youthful looks. – Charles Dickens The vocabulary lists to which I subscribe were just full of goodness today. I never understood why…
