Isn’t this beautiful? There happen to be some nails already in the walls
of the new place, so I hung this piece on one of them. I love it. It
looks like a painting, but it’s a stylized photograph, printed onto
canvas. Joe bought it for me from our friend Bill years ago. Bill hung
out on this corner for awhile until he got the perfect shot. It was
chilly. I think everyone in Boston will recognize what part of town this

I know it's been about three weeks since I've written, but I had a good reason. Guys, we moved! The apartment hunt is over! We ended up in Brighton , the town adjacent to Allston , the other of the juxtaposed neighborhoods of Boston.

Lower Allston, or "LA" so dubbed by its genial citizenry, is a
comparatively qu…
I whipped up this decadent soup the other night, making it up as I went along -- that's usually how I approach soup-making -- but this one came out so good that I've got to write it down. Sorry, it's not for vegans nor Atkins people. This is a hearty, fatty winter soup that's a stick-to-your-ribs meal in a bowl.
