boy, i have been a bit absent from the blog world, no? well, i have a tiny excuse.
that’s right, mr. halloran and i are expecting. that you see there is our nugget. or d-nugg as my sister affectionately refers to it as. we are 14 weeks now, and this is the strangest thing in the [...]

we’re not big meat eaters here in the halloran household, so we by no means claim to be meat experts, but my oh my did we find some delicious cow (sorry little cow, this is wishful thinking but i hope you had a happy life).
i have been doing a lot of traveling for work, and [...]
