What's in a Word

Shaken, not stirred

My ever-frugal father frequently volunteered to cook lunch on Sunday, his only day off. Dad didn’t obsess over the menu; he simply rummaged in the refrigerator for leftovers and threw them all together into a frying pan or pot. (As Mom as my witness, I am not making this up.) To cope … more
