Hold Tight

Last night I started reading Harlan Coben's mystery "Hold Tight" at 6:30 pm.  I finished it at 12:30 pm, steady reading exceept for a bit of up and down letting Bandido in and out of the house several times.  It was about teen agers, the internet, pharm parties, unlawful prescription refills, suicide, murder, adultery, illness, mental retards, kidnap, spyware, gps use, etc, etc.  Oh, my goodness, he writes a great mystery about ordinary people getting into extraordinary trouble.  I am so glad I am not raising children in today's world.  There is too much you need to be aware of--things I have never thought about.

I also made whipped butter.  You can make a butter spread that will go twice as far by whipping in 1/2 cup ice water to every cube of butter.  I read again that instead of using the margarine spreads you should use butter because it is real food... so make a whipped spread.  It works!
