We’re busy, busy, dreadfully busy
You’ve no idea what we have to do.
Busy, busy, shockingly busy
Much, much too busy for you.

-Veggie Tales

And here’s a white chicken chili recipe I’ve definitely got to try next time I attempt the dish. My flaming version from several weeks ago still has my throat fearing of my combo of chili powder and cumin.

And since I love chocolate and coffee, I took on Coffee and Chocolate, a new shop in downtown K-town.

This month, we lost our online co-worker and friend, Katie Kolt.

As Katie left the Sentinel for sunnier work days (actual day job!), the Randoms and other co-workers said their farewells. We’ll miss her and wish her the best.

In my most recent RandomThis video, I felt the pressure when a long suffering fan demanded face time in the blog. Like any good video blogger, I complied with the request. But will caving in only open the door to more fanfare? Watch the video by clicking on the image below.
