Now this really shouldn’t be too hard. I have a beer bread recipe that I used to make all the time. (I was younger and could afford the extra yum.) And have you had some of [...]
For those of you just stopping by, I’ll mention this blog goes dormant on January 12. There are a few things to get to before that day! One is a few predictions. I won’t be online when it all comes to pass, but I thought I’d give it a go anyway.

He is a longtime supporter of Walker, including his most recent $1,000 [...]
Just saw it on Twitter. I’m sure there will be more tomorrow.
Good job, Mr. Walker.
Just because I’m not on the bandwagon yet doesn’t mean leadership should be ignored.
If you haven’t heard by now, Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett is supposed to decide by the end of this week whether or not he’ll run for Wisconsin governor.
Let’s look at this news in polispeak. He may well decide, but not announce his decision. (Technically he decided!) The end of this week could be Sunday before [...]
