Pork Cheeks and Buffalo Milk Ice Cream
June 20, 2010 by Life in the Boomer Lane
Sorry, US. You can take a lesson from the Brits about how to run a food festival. The annual Taste of London restaurant festival was held yesterday in Regent’s Park, just a few blocks from Beloved Daughter’s flat. A mind boggling array of restaurants and pubs were represented. Many of them had created charming outdoor […]
Grandma Does London
June 15, 2010 by Life in the Boomer Lane
Life in the Boomer Lane is in London to celebrate the first birthday of First Grandchild. Like any besotted grandmother, she believes her grandchild walks on water (or he would, if he walked). On her last trip to London, she tried to smuggle him through Customs between France and the UK. She has decided not […]
Sixty isn’t the “New” Anything. Except sixty.
June 3, 2010 by Life in the Boomer Lane
Life in the Boomer Lane is venting. She is seriously so tired of hearing people say things like “Sixty is the new fifty.” Or forty. Or even thirty. This morning, on one of the talk shows, she caught about 30 seconds of the guest going on and on about how sixty-year olds should go mountain […]

Off to London in A Shopping Cart
June 1, 2010 by Life in the Boomer Lane
Life in the Boomer Lane is leaving for London in a week to celebrate the first birthday of First Grandchild.

Beloved Daughter has asked that Life in the Boomer Lane write a post about boomers on Facebook. LBL isn’t sure how she phrased it, but it might have been “Gee Mommy, since your generation, especially the Class of ’69 of which you were such an integral part, is so much more fascinating than mine could […]
