The temperature has been in the double digits around here. So cooking has been a pretty low priority. If I do cook, it will usually involve the crockpot and rice cooker and me NOT in the kitchen for hours. But last week, I baked! Yes, BAKED.

El Niño
Okay, so I did a little more than visit Desi Arnaz Jr. *sigh* when we went to Las Vegas this past weekend. Eric had to be in meetings for most of the time (except when his client wined him and dined him and took him to The Mirage to see Danny Gans, but that's not important right now).

Speaking of Cuban heart-throbs…
Before there was Andy.... (insert heart flutter here) There was Desi... (sigh)That's right. Desi Arnaz Jr. (be still my foolish heart...) Proud and handsome descendant of Cuban Royalty, Desi Arnaz and Lucille Ball (let's have a moment of reverent silence here - thank you). MY Desi. (heavy sigh) My First True Love. ...
