Because I had nothing else to do

By Anna Sawin

My husband and I discovered hulu.com tonight, and this is one of those moments we’ll look back and laugh about someday when watching TV on your computer is commonplace, like next week. “Honey!

Food Friday: Sour Cream Apple Pie

By Anna Sawin

So today’s Food Friday finds me in the kitchen of my dear friend and accomplished cook, Ellen. One of the things I admire most about her cooking is that she always tries new recipes. She is a cookbook collector like me, but unlike most of us, she really gets out the cookbooks and tries new…
