Recently I stumbled upon this concoction that has become our favorite desert. It is incredibly easy to make and tastes delicious. I know many people don’t think buttermilk is edible if it’s not baked in something, but I use it in all kinds of things, such as adding it to a cream sauce for aContinue reading “Peach Frozen Buttermilk”

Airport Follow-up
This is just a quick post to let everyone know the end of the story. I did send my information to Apple’s Support, and heard back from them that there isn’t a solution other than upgrading my operating system. I did get a new OS provided by Apple, and though there are some other programsContinue reading “Airport Follow-up”
Airport Extreme Frustrations
Wouldn’t you know it, I make a glowing post about Apple computers and that very day I experience extreme frustration with our new Airport Extreme N Base Station. Don’t get me wrong, I think the Airport Extreme is a great router for most people (and was packaged just as well as the Mini), but AppleContinue reading “Airport Extreme Frustrations”
Technology
It’s summer, and among the many home improvements we tend to get to when we can (roofing, painting, etc.), it’s a time when we sometimes upgrade our technology. Recently we purchased an LCD TV and a Mac Mini to surf the web and watch movies with, and generally use as our main home computer soContinue reading “Technology”
Cherry Pie
We are just back from a lovely trip to see my mother in Osage, Iowa, where I grew up. It is always great to get back there and see neighbors and friends, many of whom have been around since I was a boy. Like most visits, this one was filled with great food. In theContinue reading “Cherry Pie”
In memoriam Bill Whitehead, 25 October, 1937 – 24 June, 2010
Bill was the strongest, most caring of men–a wonderful father to Kim and her sisters and grandfather to Aidan and his cousins. He was a millwright and in later years, a farmer. He passed away tonight at about 11:00 p.m. For the past year we knew he suffered from ALS (also known as Lou Gehrig’sContinue reading “In memoriam Bill Whitehead, 25 October, 1937 – 24 June, 2010”
Back to Normal
Life must be getting back to normal a little (if summer can be considered normal around here). Despite the fact that we were heading into finals, we made the plunge to foster another puppy. Tomorrow he leaves for a new home in the North, but we’ve enjoyed him for nearly three weeks in the meantime.Continue reading “Back to Normal”
What has kept me busy?
Anyone who has visited my blog has noticed that there’s been a hiatus in my writing since February. Hopefully, with the end of the semester drawing near, that is about to change! But it hasn’t just been teaching four classes (two sections of Survey of World Literature, one of Creative Writing, and one of ModernContinue reading “What has kept me busy?”
Tribute to Jean C. Lee
Jean Lee was an amazing artist, writer, editor, and human being. I first met her when I was a student at Knox College and she was the technical advisor for Catch, the student literary magazine. She taught me most everything I know about editing and design. Later, after I had worked in Chicago for aContinue reading “Tribute to Jean C. Lee”
Where do we go from here? One faculty member’s perspective
[The following is a column originally printed in the Commercial Dispatch, Columbus, Mississippi, on Sunday, February 7.] I ended a recent letter stating MUW needs to look to the future and be proactive. The issues of changing our name or merging with another university appear to be behind us for now, and no matter whatContinue reading “Where do we go from here? One faculty member’s perspective”
