So I was just saying to Sister that I’ve realized just how active Eleanora has gotten because I never have time to blog anymore. I don’t even have time to THINK about blog posts. This is my view for a good portion of each day:

4 CommentsKentucky Derby Favorites
Posted in: Holidays, Life, Recipes
Hello? Is this thing on? If you received this post in your inbox, you have probably forgotten all about The Lexingtonienne by now, that’s how long it’s been since I last did a post. What happened was, I suffered from a severe bout of laziness one week, then the following week everyone in my house was hit with the plague. We were sick as dogs last week, and it has been a lingering sickness that’s stubbornly kept us all below the “feeling 100%” mark even into this week. The good news is, thanks to us, Kleenex will not be going out of business any time soon.
Aside from a batch of cure-all Chicken Noodle Soup (in late April – ?!?), the kitchen has seen very little of me in the past couple of weeks. So I’m digging into the archives today to bring you a couple of great little recipes for Derby fare, since the 138th annual Run for the Roses is this Saturday. Here are some suggestions for your celebration.
First is the diet-busting Kentucky Hot Brown (pdf). Just because the jockeys are keeping themselves at a slim 112 pounds this week doesn’t mean you have to. (HAHA! 112 pounds. Ahhh, that’s funny.)

4 CommentsOur Easter Weekend
Posted in: Eleanora, Family, Holidays, Life
How was your Easter weekend? Ours was jam-packed with wall-to-wall nonstop action. Friday night we had Hubba Bubba’s Philly Italian cousins — who were visiting from the East Coast — over for dinner. From left to right are Cousin Mike, Cousin Ann, Cousin Nick, and Cousin Elissa. You’ll have to figure out the ones in the middle yourself.

They say March comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb. This March, our beloved pediatrician announced he’s closing his practice, my bank account got hacked through PayPal, and I had a root canal. That lion roared till the bitter end.
