I've had some. Apparently if I'm going to be the sole blogger on this site rather than a participant in a community blog, I need to rethink my mission here...since I very much like my website name, I think I'll just make a mental change from DelSo to DelSolo. A simple adjustment which I hope … Continue reading Feedback –
Fell in love…
this weekend with Pine Ridge Cross-Country Ski area! I've heard about this place for a number of years, but have never ventured a visit until this past Saturday. There has been an absolute lack of snow in Albany this winter and, other than last weekend's jaunt to Lapland Lake, my skis have remained in the … Continue reading Fell in love…
Worlds Collide
Last night at the restaurant, I "hosted" 3 alumni, Classes of 2005, 2007 and 2008, respectively. It is always so nice to see former students, despite the fact that serving a Heineken to someone you "served" Research Skills to in a former life, is a bit jarring.

Since it stayed with me all day, (and the workout wasn't that hard), I'm inclined to think it is … Continue reading Saving the world with soup – a valiant attempt.
Cue Etta James…At last…
Where to begin? That I needed a vacation (or detox) after my recent school break? That we had some excellent food in the month of December? That, for the first time ever, I was sad to see the holidays end? That I failed (sort of) to live up to my lofty goal of baking for … Continue reading Cue Etta James…At last…
Christmas Eve & Christmas Day in the DelSo
Christmas Eve was a food-filled extravaganza! From the delicious antipasti items from Cardona's (stuffed olives, prosciutto, spicy sopressata) to the 5 year aged gouda from the Honest Weight, we started the evening on a high note. I must admit, I was on my game and the herb-encrusted rack of lamb I roasted was AMAZING! We … Continue reading Christmas Eve & Christmas Day in the DelSo
