Granted, one of the candies referenced in this puzz isn’t candy coated, but it has a ring to it that makes for a decent title.
My kids love smarties - particularly my youngest. I haven’t introduced them to nerds yet, but come Halloween they’ll be…

Car maintenance used to scare me. It still does, but it used to, too. (credit: Mitch Hedberg of course).
I did start changing my own engine fluids this past year, though. So I needed to buy a 9A to catch the spent crude. Planning to do the automatic…
Mini Once More - Video Game Edition

I loved the video game series mentioned in 7A. Though I will admit, I played 7A’s prequel and sequel more than any of them.

A bit of wine lingo in this one. Some great values to be had in 2D. You can get a really solid dinner wine for a good price.

Ever since I saw Jurassic Park as a kid, the scene where Richard Attenborough explains how the scientists recovered the Dino DNA has always been the most vivid. That scene and the one with the raptors in the kitchen are always the first scenes I…
Cookbook Inspirations

In my kitchen is a cookbook titled "Pedaling Through Provence" by Sarah Leah Chase. She describes 2D as a dish to "prepare when hunkering down for winter's worst." This dish requires a bold red from the Rhone - preferably a "chewy" red from Cote…

In my line of work, I often run into a lot of gray areas
Unfortunately for our clients, the solution to these situations doesn’t always work out for them
