I just opened the patio doors to water our cherry tomatoes that are still holding on and grab a few herbs for my son’s dinner. As the doors opened I was greeted by a dark sky, crisp air, and the warm smell of someone having a fire in a nearby home. Fall and its glorious [...]
Last week we got notice that our site was a potentially dangerous site and was thought to be distributing malicious software. Of course, fine friends, we would never think of doing such a thing. We want you to know first and foremost that you (and your computer) are safe when you visit One-Change.com. Upon further [...]
I promised more posts spawned from my summer reading of Animal, Vegetable, Miracle and I’m sorry it’s taken me so long. I have a notebook full of notes and am getting around to pushing them through the blog machine to get to you. Cooking at home seems to be a dying art. Even ‘foodies’ often [...]
I have read many a blog post with titles similar to the one I have used here. Often it is used by guilty bloggers, who feel that they have abandoned their faithful readers.

We have been doing a sibling/spouse Secret Santa gift exchange on my side of the family for a couple of years. It has worked really well and has provided the opportunity within my fairly large family to focus on one person. This year we have decided to make another change in our gift giving. Every [...]
This past July Kendall and I got rid of our car. We had been thinking about doing it for about a year. It began around the time we decided to move to Seattle. One of the many reasons this move has been so good for us is because it has given us the opportunity to [...]
