It’s been a dark, cruel winter. Decades ago, Bananarama sang about a cruel summer. “Hot summer streets and the pavements are burningI sit aroundTrying to smile but the air is so heavy and dry” Just substitute out the word “summer” for “winter”. Such a word substitution captures the […]
This has been the winter of my discontent. This has been the dreariest winter storm. However, I have heard that “No winter lasts forever; no spring skips its turn.” While I await the return of spring, I’ll enjoy some comfort food. A good stew. A good bread pudding. […]
