It was damp and there was the strong smell of must and dried corn. I wasn't … Continue reading Touched

If you know me, whether in person or from reading here, you are aware that I have a bit of a control issue. I lean towards being moderate in my indulgences and don't enjoy the feeling of being out of control.

He … Continue reading What’s wrong with oysters?
