Where do I even begin? We last left of when Bizou died. I never told what exactly happened. I guess five months ago it was difficult for me to put in in writing. Even today, I get teary just thinking about it, but hopefully this will explain my absence for so long. The morning that [...]

A funny thing happened last weekend. My husband and I were having dinner at a new Italian restaurant and half way through the meal I asked him “Did you bring any money?” I can’t remember what prompted me to ask but his answer, “Of course”, was enough to appease my concerns. When the time came [...]

There are moments in our life that stand out because we make promises to ourselves and say: One day… Then there are moments in our life that also stand out because we say to ourselves: Never ever… In 2002 I was visiting my husband in New York and we decided to have dinner at a [...]

Let me tell you about a day in the life of Trissalicious. I get up a little before 6 am and take my two labradors for an hour long walk. Then I go to work, where I spent a good nine or ten hours of the day. When I get home, I cook dinner, eat dinner, do [...]

Is it just me or do none of your family members comment on your blog as well? I know they read it but no matter how much I bribe (“I’ll give you some cookies that I baked in exchange for a comment”) or beg (“please, please leave a comment”) – still no comment. It would [...]
