Maura, about three months ago, discovered ice skating. Ever since then, she’s been begging (and begging, and begging) for me to take her skating. She, like little kids everywhere, was totally convinced that the moment she set foot on the ice, she’d be like a ballerina in skates. (Note: she has also tried to be [...]

So the other day I was looking at sheets on Amazon, and I found not sheets, but these pillows. I’ve always wanted to try gel pillows, but didn’t want to pay eleventy-two dollars for them, so it was super exciting to realize that these were only $25. I bought them (and had free two-day shipping [...] That’s right, falafel! Falafel! is so awesome that it gets its own exclamation mark. Here’s the thing. I really, really like falafel. (Enough exclamation marks. They give me hives after a while. Please pretend that there is an exclamation mark of happiness after every instance of falafel.) Unfortunately, living where I live, falafel options are [...] A rare weekend post to talk about this soup that I made. Unlike many people on the internet, I don’t really love soup. I mean, don’t get me wrong, we’re at least nodding acquaintances, but we’re never going to be BFFs. Push come to shove, I’d rather eat some mashed potatoes, or a beans and [...] I was originally going to do hot or not Tuesday, and then I realized that I didn’t want to think about the not-hot things, because it was depressing. Instead, it’s just stuff that’s awesome. 25% off sales at my local yarn shop. Their website’s dated in areas, but it’s a really nice shop, and about [...] Apparently there’s this meme, 51 things I found in my room? Or 52 things I found in my house, or something like that. Unfortunately, it involves making a video of yourself with random things and setting said video to quirky music, and let me tell you, my tolerance for that is pretty less than zero. [...] 1. See that? That’s maybe my new favorite picture. Maura and Basil are both totally convinced that he’s a lapdog, and apparently they’re just going to keep doing that until I believe them. Hilarious. You should also know that this picture was taken in a brief pause in their desperate wiggling, Basil attempting to lick [...] Like I said the other day, we canned some mushrooms over the summer. In all honestly, I didn’t think that they’d be so great, so I only put up two half-pints. Nice person that I am, I gave one of them to my sister for Christmas. I totally regret that. Don’t get me wrong, I [...] Back over the summer, I went on a canning binge. I canned salsas and jams, pickled cauliflower and onions, and also did a few jars of roasted peppers. I’d never done them before, so I was sort of worried–I love roasted peppers, and we go through jar upon jar of them, but there are a [...] |
