I always keep a couple of space heaters of some sort-I like the little radiator ones, and I keep one little tower for heating a small space fast-living in less than nice housing with my 1st husband-when he was in the military with little rank, and as broke new college grads with a kid, I learned to never rely on the housing we could afford to have adequate, or even functioning heat, and to carry my own with me. Good thing, too-I even have two wood stoves with me, but this place is unsafe for an open or wood fire, in my opinion, so space heaters it is...

I like the sealed radiator types. At our previous home, we had very ineffectual oil heat. House was built in 1921, and the wind whistled into the house.

And I abhor the cold.

We were talking yesterday, about the love/non-love of cooking...

Here’s an easy one, 15 min or so.

Sauce, penne. (Boiling the pasta al dente is the time consumer)

Chop up a little Basil, pinch of salt, ground pepper, and at the last moment before serving, stir in one of those 8 oz tubs of Gorgonzola. 2lbs,2jars, cheese, total cost, about 10$ and makes Ravioli, taste like a booger.

Which is not to say that I know what boogers taste like, (yes, dave and Neo that disclaimer was for the inevitable)
