Merry Christmas

The kids and I decided that our sugar intake needed to be increased for the holiday season, so we made cookies and caramel.

 Don't talk to them!  They are serious about their work.

Murphy

We have had a visitor in our home for the past few months.  We thought that he would only stay for a short while, but I think he is just kicking it in the spare bedroom and has no intention of moving.  No, it is not the former president of Liberia -- it is Murphy.

Out of Africa

I may seem like a mild-mannered risk-averse homebody, but don't let my sedentary lifestyle fool you.  I learned today that I am also a trusted confidant of the former president of Liberia. His son told me so in a letter.
