My Favorite television show right now would have to be The Big Bang Theory. This show airs on CBS Monday nights. It is about four socially awkward geniuses who work for the science department at a local university. It is co-starred by a naïve girl from Nebraska who moves into the apartment across the hall from the most socially awkward of the foursome and one who falls in love with her at first sight. The concept for the show is very original from any other show that is on right now. The interaction, or attempted interaction, with society by this foursome is hilarious. It is one of the few comedies currently on that can actually make me laugh out loud.

Our neighbor has three Dachshunds, two females and a male.  These dogs are real barkers.  As soon as she opens the door, they come charging out and start to bark.  She has a fenced in back yard, so if someone walks by, they run from one side to the other, around the house, to keep barking at the person.  They also do a whole lot of digging in the yard, mainly around the fence.  They dig furiously and continuously all around the perimeter.  They even dig at Christmas stockings for dogs. Perhaps this is a characteristic of the breed, because they haven’t ever escaped, although the holes are more than deep enough for them to crawl under.  Many people in this neighborhood are extremely bothered by the constant barking, to which the owner seems oblivious.  Luckily for us, she packs them up every year to go to her winter home in Alabama.

Friday evening my teenaged daughter and I went to see the movie “Julie and Julia” at our local theater. We stopped for coffee at the adjacent cafe afterward and talked about how much we loved the movie. She finally understood how much fun cooking can be. She was so inspired that before we drove home, she made me stop at the supermarket to pick up ingredients for a homemade chili that she made the next day. On Sunday she went to Borders, bought a cookbook, and had me shop for the ingredients to make banana bread and baked tilapia. The activity in the kitchen hasn’t stopped. Thanks to Julia, I’m eating better, but it’s getting expensive and fattening!
