Somehow amidst the piles of laundry, the yet-unpacked boxes and bins, and the beginning of fall, the Fella and I found ourselves able to snag a little time to watch the next film, the ever-popular, constantly re-incarnated Alice in Wonderland. It's everyone's favorite dreamy adventure to the subconscious of a precocious British child with a lot to argue about and lots… Continue reading Disney Odyssey #13 – A Very Merry Unbirthday (And Then Some)

Disney Odyssey #12 – If the Shoe Fits, Marry Her Immediately

Tonight's Fun and Fancy (but totally not free) dinner fixins include steak sandwiches lovingly hand-crafted by the Fella (!!!) and the last of the Ben & Jerry's in the freezer.
