A Dollop of Sour Cream

I'm not much into spicy food. I have recently discovered that if a meal is just a tad too spicy for me, I can put sour cream on top and make it not just palatable, but wonderful. This blog is devoted to doing the same for life.

100th Annual Family Reunion

My mother's family is having their 100th Annual Family Reunion this year.

And I volunteered (even though I'm on the other side of the US) to do some computer stuff for them.

This past weekend I worked on making a custom calendar.

And after trying a whole BUNCH of calendar programs -- I found the one that worked the best for what I was wanting to do... Microsoft Word!

I use Picasca for dealing with photos before they go in. And PhotoImpressions (an otherwise worthless program I got free with my digital camera) to add text "labels" on the people on the pictures themselves. But then I do Insert Picture into Microsoft Word, and use tables for the months -- and I can make it look exactly as I want, not restrained by any other software producer's idea of what a calendar is supposed to look like.

For helping out with the basic templates of calendar, I suggest Calendars that Work
