“Fish Fingers” and Custard

Saturday, August 27, 2011

You probably recall that I’m a Doctor Who fan. I love DW almost as much as I love Harry Potter. Really, it’s thisclose (DW is probably tied with Star Trek…but I’ve never posted about Star Trek; I need to get on that). Yet this post is my only Doctor Who post. Until today. A Saturday. Which I, like, never ...

Perfectly Pinterest: Cute as a Button Cupookies

Okay. So. I’m off island. I’m staying with family again. I’m in the Great White North (that’s actually still green and lovely). But the hubster and our boy are still on island. And they had a big storm this past weekend. Her name was Irene, and she was way more of a bitch than any ...

I don’t think I mentioned it, but I’m spending some time with family in the States, and I got to see my mom for a few days last week. It was wonderful. On our last night together, we decided to go out to dinner at Olive Garden. I love Olive Garden. Truly. I decided that ...

Baby Banana Coconut Donuts

Thursday, August 11, 2011

Something has happened to me over the last couple of years. Something involving sleep…and I’m not happy about it. Seriously, I love to sleep. A lot. I don’t sleep a lot, I love it a lot. It’s definitely one of my top five favorite activities. I don’t care if that makes me sound like a ...

Listen up, Butterfingers and Two Left Feet, I think it’s about time that we had a heart to heart. Now, I know that we’re old buddies. We’ve always stuck together.
