Curried Beef Short Ribs

Note: I found this was more realistically four servings.

Finishing this dish with lime zest and juice brightens its rich flavors.

Yield 6 servings (serving size: about 3 ounces ribs, 2/3 cup rice, and about 2 1/2 tablespoons sauce)

Out With The Old

Just popping in with a quick update and then I actually have to write a letter for work. Taking Friday off was a great idea and we managed to get alot closer to showing the house. We have couple of small projects to finish before we list on Tues. I dragged five bags of stuff to donate and Tom tooks tons to the dump. The cleaning guy came by and they will do the big initial clean on Wednesday. We are actually going to wait to have people see the house until after the weekend. That way Keegan has plenty of time to recover from surgery. Besides, I doubt alot of people will be looking at houses since it is Easter. I can't believe that in around 60 days I will be in a new house. Physically single, if not legally. Weird. That is the only word I can use to describe this whole thing. I have gotten some much love and support through this. How could I help but be strong and hopeful?

PS I have been debating switching to a new domain. I got this one because I was the "half full' and Tom is the "half empty." I am not sure if maybe it is a good time to start fresh. What do you think?

I think a fresh start is the way to go, and I think your readers will follow you where ever you go. If you ever need support just ask.

I always wondered where your the name came from. I think a switch could be helpful - like you said, fresh start and all that.

I think it would be a good idea to start fresh with a new domain. It sounds like something I would do too.

I vote for fresh start. Rock on. Sending Keegan some well wishes, hope he feels better soon and that the surgery helped, too.
