In which Dr. Mel’s going to Iceland next month, so he had to do some stash reduction. The good news is that Mel, in a sudden stash-reduction fit, sent me two boxes of yarn:
In which I record my first-ever bread baking experience in great and tedious detail! Yay! I am not a baker. I have never made a loaf of bread in my life (except for in a bread machine, and that can’t possibly count for anything). In spite of this handicap, I am going to bake a […]
In which I tell you all I know about the Polaroid SX-70! I have two SX-70s. One is a lovely silver and leather top-shelf SLR, and the other is a black plastic Model 3 (the non-SLR model). I’m lucky in that I got them both really cheap, and they both function beautifully and close completely. […]
In which I tell you about the gifts I received. For Christmas I got a Kindle gift certificate (yay moar ebooks!), a red goblet, candy (some of it filled with tequila, I kid you not!), a hand-made tote bag, cash, and a little herb garden kit. I really wanna buy myself some sort of shiny […]
In which there’s a blues festival. Saturday morning my alarms went off at 5:35 and 5:45 respectively. I showered, dressed, grabbed my gig bag and walked out the door at 6:15. IN THE MORNING. After sleeping maybe two hours. Curt and Cookie picked me up, we grabbed breakfast at McDonald’s and drove to Richland, where […]
In which there are books. In various formats. I’ll start school in eighteen days (if the financial aid office at WWCC ever awards me any aid, that is) and probably won’t read much that isn’t assigned for the next nine months. That being true, I thought I’d share my current reading-for-pleasure list with you. “Real” […]
In which a tradition is born. A year ago, Left Coast Girlie and I went to see the Shakespeare Uncork’d production together and had such a great time we did it again this year. Here’s how it went: She said she’d be here at six, but for some reason I remembered it as seven and […]
In which there’s a recipe. Sort of. After my last post, I went to the kitchen feeling poor and dejected. I knew I had corn tortillas, some cheese, and half a can of refried beans in the fridge. I figured I’d nuke the beans and have a taco or two. AGAIN. Instead, I made enchiladas! […]
In which I do a meme. A quick google doesn’t reveal to me where it came from originally, but the 12 of 12 idea is that on the 12th day of the month you take 12 pictures and put ’em on the innertubes. Vuboq does it sometimes. It’s what I did today. Behold, twelve images […]
In which I’M dieting, so YOU get to look at pictures of food. Here’s my breakfast! Only 400 calories! Here’s some soup I had the other day! That soup was good! GAWD I MISS THAT SOUP! Hmm, soup. Oh, yeah, this was really good, too: And this: And this: And this: AW HELL! Oh, wait! […]
