In which we talk about breakfast! Yum! Because while I read a lot of involved, uplifting, active, and self-referential blogs, personally I’m just not that interesting. Plus: there’s a bunch of food porn!
Yesterday I was craving a big old bowl of the Egyptian breakfast food known as ful medames. The stuff is just so delicious [...]
In which it’s like I’m turning over a new leaf or something, what with all the being organized and shit.
This is how on top of the holiday game I am:
I had my Christmas letter written yesterday, when it was still November! I have created a Christmas card list! I have purchased over half of [...]
In which the AC adapter has arrived!
Kaje and I watched an episode of Doctor Who last night while eating tostadas on his couch. I love Doctor Who. I love tostadas. (Couches are pretty cool too. Pretty much a win/win scenario, if you ask me.)

In which I enjoy a lovely, relaxing weekend at home.
Saturday I carried boxes down from the attic and Gramma and I spent the day redecorating for the holiday. All the framed photos from the corner cabinet were boxed up, all the Santas were unpacked, and things were dusted and arranged and displayed. We had fun.
Sunday [...]
In which I get my way! Amazing!
Today the guys at work gave me a UPS so I don’t have to shut my computer down at night. BOOYAH!
They also told me not to learn from this event that bitching will get me my way in the future. I promised them most emphatically that I do not [...]
Behold today’s quick-and-easy soup recipe!
