Of Oil Leaks and Knighthood on St. Valentine’s Day

So, it was an eventful Valentine’s day. Valentine’s Day is my husband’s birthday. (I detest the expression DH when referring to one’s husband in e-communications. You will not see the two letters DH strung together on this website). As I … Continue reading
