Don’t you wish you could be a fly on the wall, or in this case, a bird in a tree? The more I hear the Tiger Woods saga the more it sounds so crazy, so far-fetched. When Woods wouldn’t give up any more information it sent the tabloids into a frenzy. I’m sure “Saturday Night Live” will do a parody on the story and I decided to have some fun with the most recent news story myself.

In my parody of that night near Orlando I picture Tiger and his wife having an argument over alleged phone calls made to one woman who has been called a professional home wrecker and another who claims to have saved all of Tiger’s text messages. Isn’t technology wonderful? Wifey is not happy and she wants to know what’s up. Tiger does his best Rick James impression and says “I’m Tiger Woods.”

There’s nothing like a house full of family and friends for the holidays. Whether you need to wake the family to a delicious breakfast or feed a hungry crowd after a busy day of shopping, keep things simple with some tasty shortcuts from Food Network star Sandra Lee.

“The holidays are too short for from-scratch recipes,” says Sandra Lee. “You want to be with your family and friends, instead of being stuck in the kitchen.” That’s easy to do with recipes from her books, “Sandra Lee Semi-Homemade Weeknight Wonders” and “Sandra Lee Semi-Homemade Money Saving Slow Cooking.”
