Given that her complete catalogue is composed almost entirely of work she produced as a student, the posthumous critical esteem for American photographer Francesca Woodman is astonishing. Unlike music or math, where precocious displays of talent are not uncommon, photography tends not to have prodigies. Woodman, who committed suicide in 1981 at age 22, is considered a rare exception. That she has achieved such status is all the more remarkable considering only a quarter of the approximately 800 images she produced—many of them self-portraits—have ever been seen by the public.
We promise you these abandoned spaces are not creepy in the slightest.

I haven't been posting meal plans lately because well, my plans have been concocted on a daily basis. Mostly they have been daily "what can we throw together today" plans, not weekly well thought-out plans. Yeah, I could post a weekly plan but it would look something like.... Sunday--meat TBA, veg TBA, carb TBA Monday--meat TBA, veg TBA, carb TBA Tuesday--carb sub for meat TBA, veg TBA You see what I mean?lol Since I've been trying to eat down what is here already, here's how I've been creating my meals. I'm not scouring the grocery ads and planning meals and buying specific foods. I've gone to the freezer each morning and dug out a hunk of animal protein I already have here. Then I figure out what treatment to give it(roast, grill, saute, etc.), what sauce it needs(if any from the stockpiled items), and then I pop my head back into the freezer around noon and find a veggie to go with the hunk of protein du jour, either as a side dish or to throw into a casserole treatment. I'll head into the stockpile about an hour before dinner time and grab a carb item(rice, taters, rolls, pasta, etc.). And Voila!.....it's dinner. I guess I've been operating in 1950's housewife mode because this is what she must have done each day. And if she didn't have a hunk of something frozen(and since freezers were sketchy things back then and not temperature reliable she probably didn't keep much frozen on hand), she went to the store to pick up something fresh every day or so. If I lack something I have Hubs stop on the way home and pick it up but mostly I try to make-do with what is here. Not very creative or labor intensive but it's sort of homemade and it's frugal. At least it isn't fast food or tv dinners.lol This have been working on many levels for us lately. Hubs has been getting home at different times each evening. #2 son has had various Band rehearsals so he's been home at irregular hours and not on solid food for the next few days after his Orthodontic visit. Daughter often doesn't eat here and I never know from one day to the next or even 3 hours ahead if she will be dining at Chez Sluggy or not. So doing a pre-set weekly plan hasn't been a good fit for us this past month. So this 1st week in May, the Meal Plan is going to so something like this.... Sunday....leftovers DONE Monday....Teriyaki Barbecue chicken thighs, mac and cheese, brussel sprouts DONE Tuesday....whatever I feel like eating(no one else will be eating here this evening but me) Wednesday.....another last minute meal thrown together from what is on hand and/or leftovers(possibly 2 eating home this evening, but most likely just me again) Thursday....Ravioli, Tossed Salad Friday....leftovers or Soup & Sandwich Saturday....Burritos and Chili Next month, after #1 son(who is on a strange eating schedule as well)gets home from college, I think I am going to go with a weekly plan where I will cook large meals 2 or 3 days of the week only. This will give us a dinner for that day plus I'll cook extra so we can eat off of the leftovers for a day or even two more. For example, a large pot of chili, which can last for 3 dinners or more......a large pot of Pork Ragu which can see us through 3-4 meals.......a large pan of Chicken Enchiladas which can stretch out to 2-3 meals...these would be good choices and keep me out of the kitchen for long stretches. 8-)) Ok, this has turned into a rambling stream of half ideas with no point to it all so I'll stop now. The point to take away from this is that you shouldn't come looking for Meal Plans here anytime soon. If you can find a better more frugal point to this please let me know! ;-) Sluggy

The Cold War period was an intense one. Many were living in fear of an approaching war and the statistics tell that by 1960, almost 70 percent of American adults thought that nuclear war was impending. By the mid-1960s, an estimated 200,000 shelters were built—but it's only a rough estimate. It's hard to know the exact numbers because "people didn't talk."
