La Fête de Fracas
I proposed the title of this post as the theme of our vacation. Little did I know that the fracas would start before we got on the plane to Paris. We got to the airport and turned in the rental car with plenty of time to spare. I opened my purse and found no baggie …

Birthday Dinner
There’s a reason we decided to stop in New York on the way to France rather than on the way home. My mother celebrated her 85th birthday today. We took the family out to dinner at Canale’s in Oswego. I figured everyone would be able to find something to eat there. My sister, nieces, and …

Blasts from the Past
Going back east brings back lots of memories. It also brings up the used-to-bes. Two examples: That house used to be where one of my high school friends lived. That vacant lot used to hold the factory where my mom and brother-in-law worked. Since I haven’t lived in Hannibal for nearly 40 years, the used-to-bes …

Hitting the Road
The skies, actually. Edible Thoughts is heading east. First stop: Hannibal, with a side trip to Ithaca. We then fly to Paris and grab a train to Lyon for the Fête des Lumières (Festival of Lights). Then we go to Colmar for a couple of days before finishing up with a week in Paris. Keep …

Now Will We Pay Attention?
The current sexual harassment and assault claims show that predators can be found in all walks of life and of all political persuasions. We’ve all seen people we respected taken down by their behavior. Will the victims finally get the attention and support they need after their ordeals? Will we pay attention and stop blaming …

Getting My French On
Next week we leave on our long-awaited vacation. Julian started planning this trip back in February. (Who, us, obsessive-compulsive?) We’ll be in Hannibal for a few days to visit my family, then we’ll fly to France. To avoid being a magnet for every scammer and pickpocket in Lyon, Colmar, and Paris, my goal is simple: …

This Year’s Thanksgiving Contributions
As usual, we’re spending Thanksgiving with some of our Friday Night crew. Our host is doing the turkey and some of the trimmings. I offered to make the traditional cranberry-orange relish, plus some bread for the festivities. After some research in the collection, I settled on a challah recipe that had onion rolls as a …

More Feeding Between the Lines
I’ve posted several times about the assorted food allergies and intolerances in our regular Friday night crew. By now making adjustments to accommodate our friends has become second nature. However, sometimes a recipe can’t be jiggled for everyone. Then we improvise. The Friday night crew convened last night. Julian offered to make a Peruvian chicken …

Nearing the Finish

On November 14 the Council was scheduled to vote on the final purchase agreement for the front 9. The back 9 purchase vote will be held on December 12. The City Council chamber was packed. Before …
