DINNER 140: Saturday, May 20, 2006

Tonight was closing night of Wendy’s show, LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS, and the 17th season at Falcon Theater. Wendy & I drove down to the theater together, though I had to go back out shortly after arriving — seems that the actor playing Audrey II couldn’t get his car started, […]

Meet Buster the Dog

Buster the Dog came to live with us on Sunday, May 21, 2006. He is a 6-year old Daschund who suffered an unknown spinal trauma on Thursday, May 18, 2006 and became paralyzed from the neck down. His owners weren’t able to take care of him, and brought him to Wendy, […]

DINNER 142: Monday, May 22, 2006

Chef Kinsella was unavailable for class (yet again) this evening and we had a substitute instructor — the very-capable Chef Potter. Chef Potter had instructions to administer a test and then take us through a few recipes. I arrived at the normal class time (3:00), forgetting that we’d been told […]

Update on Buster — May 23, 2006

Here’s a quick update on Buster, the dog that’s currently with us… As you may recall from this article, Buster is a 6-year old sweet Daschund who is currently paralyzed from the neck down. On their first attempt last week, the folks at Wendy’s hospital weren’t able to get a read-able […]

DINNER 144: Wednesday, May 24, 2006

Another GARDE MANGER class at Cincinnati State this evening. We worked on Sushi, Salmon Mousse, Risotto Balls, and a couple other items. Dinner was leftovers of all those items, so it was pretty random. We got out of class before 8:00, so I was able to make it home in […]

CULINARY: THE DISH television show

Today, I took a vacation day from the office to volunteer on an episode of THE DISH, Jean-Robert’s cooking show that airs on Channel 12 in Cincinnati. I arrived at 10:00am and reported to the set of the show. Well, actually, to the tiny kitchen behind the set of the […]

DINNER 146: Friday, May 26, 2006

Dave & Robin came by the house to pick me up to see LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS at Ross High School, where Robin works. Robin was the vocal director for the show. Wendy would come to the school directly from work. Before the show, Robin, Dave, and I ate a […]

DINNER 147: Saturday, May 27, 2006

In the morning/early afternoon, Jay & Angel and I went up to Xenia to read the script (“Gratuitous”) written by Dan, a filmmaker friend of mine. Dan likes to workshop his scripts to see what works and what could be tightened. This is the second time I have read “Gratuitous” […]

DINNER 148: Sunday, May 28, 2006

We did a bunch of yardwork today, building on some initial work that Wendy had done earlier in the week. We replaced the old-n-busted pavers along our sidewalk with lovely new ones. This involved a trip to Home Depot for the new pavers, all 22 of them. Those things get […]

DINNER 149: Monday, May 29, 2006

We slept in this morning, a lovely thing. The fan in the bedroom kept us cool, and Buster was reasonably quiet until he messed his playpen at 7:00am, but we were able to get him cleaned up, settled in, and everyone back to sleep without much fuss. We got up […]

Update on Buster — May 30, 2006

This article was written by Wendy.  At this time Buster is making great strides, literally. As last week drew to a close he started to push himself around the floor more enthusiastically. As anticipated, his rear end is stronger than the front (which we expected due to the location of […]

DINNER 150: Tuesday, May 30, 2006

This evening, Wendy & I went to Joann Fabrics to pick out fleece for our upcoming participation in a Project Linus event that Holly organized and Tracy is hosting. Project Linus is a 100% volunteer non-profit organization with a two-fold mission: First, it is our mission to provide love, a […]

DINNER 151: Wednesday, May 31, 2006

I had my GARDE MANGER class this evening, so I went directly to Cincinnati State from work. We worked on a few items tonight since the food order was yet again messed up. As a result, we didn’t have the ingredients we needed for the items assigned tonight. This is […]

DINNER 154: Saturday, June 3, 2006

We went to Tracy’s house tonight to participate in a Project Linus blanket-making that Holly organized for us. Everyone brought something to eat in addition to their blanket-making materials, so we had fried chicken, mac & cheese, a couple different salads, cookies, and desserts. I made a “Frosty Strawberry Pie” […]

DINNER 155: Sunday, June 4, 2006

We had a fairly busy but pleasant day today. The weather was perfect with beautiful blue skies and very low humidity. We went to the book release party of our friend Rose who just released SO YOU WANT TO BE A MEDIUM?. The party was very nice and Rose was more […]
