Antique Store Score

Mad Men Season 6

Did you watch the season premier of Mad Men last night? Shhh--don't tell me what happened. I won't get to watch it till Tuesday! These pics will have to tide me over till then:

Meyer Lemon Pudding

And you thought lemon season was over around here. Not quite. There are still a few fruits left on the tree, so I was excited to find this simple Meyer lemon pudding recipe. It all came together in less than half an hour. My only quibble is that the recipe didn't say how long to stir, so I kind of guessed -- I'd say it took about 10 minutes, though I didn't time it.

I used a tiny bit more lemon than the recipe called for. Next time I make it (and yes, there will be a next time), I'll use less sugar. Husband's reaction: "Whoa, that's sweet." Sweet.

Rosie

We had an unexpected overnight guest this past weekend. Very sweet and well-trained. I'm happy to report that she is back with her family.
