Random thoughts

Those way too expensive copper-clad pots? The ones coming out of France, made by Mauviel, I think? They are great for simmering anything. Anything that needs to be slow cooked, cooked at a low temp for a while, like rice -- this is the type of pot you need.

Better even than All-Clad. And I (heart) my All-Clad pots. :)

What this blog is really about

Um.

Well ...

It's about my attempts to create a life I can bear to live.

That's all really. One would think that's quite enough, considering what's going on in the world today. After all, the current administration occupying our White House has some very distrubing similarities to the fascists who took control of Japan and Germany and Italy back in the last century. I've got a BA in History; I know whereof I speak.

This blog is not about politics. There are plenty of poliblogs out there; this is not one of them.

I have depression.

I have Avoidant Personality Disorder.

I have Dyslexia and mild ADD.

Oh, and I am currently just a few pounds shy of becoming morbidly obese.

(Hmm. Maybe "depression" should be "Depression.")

Those are the primary issues in my personal life. Those are the ones I will be addressing here.
