Do you guys ever fell like you just need to unplug for awhile? Sometimes, with the blog and Instagram and Facebook and twitter, I just feel like I’m constantly online, I constantly have my face in an iPad, smartphone, or computer screen. I decided this past week to take some time of from the online […]...
Last night, I dreamed about baking cupcakes. I actually dreamed about baking cupcakes. I mean, I knew I loved baking, and that I’ve been missing it, but even I’m surprised that I actually dreamed about it. I’m relieved, though, because I fully expected hideous, giant spiders to plague my dreams. Because they do after I […]...
I realize it has been over a week since I posted any new recipes, but you guys, my mom was visiting me last week! Before this latest visit, I hadn’t seen her in two years. That’s just stupid. So I was a little busy and distracted last week. It was fantastic. We ate a lot […]...
You know what are not nice? Geese. When I was probably 14 or so, I didn’t know they were so territorial. There was a flock of them…a gaggle? Anyway, a lot of them on the hillside by the pool at the church camp I attended. I was all, “Heh heh. Watch this.” I ran at […]...
This is a post of few words. Because cinnamon swirl french toast speaks for itself. And because I’m exhausted. The Hubster was on duty this past week. It’s a Tuesday to Tuesday thing. He has to stand duty, like, every three weeks or something…I forget the rotation. They’re always weird. Anyway. He was on duty […]...
My blog turns three this week, you guys. I can hardly believe it. It certainly doesn’t feel like three years have passed since I first started blogging. Even after having lived in Maine, St. Croix, a short stint in Minnesota, and now in Oregon…it just doesn’t seem like it’s been three whole years. I’ve been […]...
Did you know that it’s good luck to eat pork on New Year’s Day? You probably did. I didn’t. Apparently, though, it is. But actually, I guess I kind of did know, because isn’t there, like, a lucky pig thing with a peppermint candy pig that you crush up with a hammer or something? Oh […]...
I’ve decide to embrace the cooler autumn weather we’ve started having. I’m sad that, with all the moving and such, I haven’t enjoyed much of a summer, but I adore the autumn, so there’s nothing to complain about. It’s all cool weather, the smell of warm fires in the air, crisp leaves crunching underfoot, cozy […]...
Recently, my dog went on a little field trip. I’ve only talked about Loki a few times on here, but I’m sure that I’ve made it clear that I’m pretty much devoted to him. I think that when it comes to soul mates, we don’t get just one. I mean, I think we just get one […]...
Before I post my last one or two Thanksgiving ideas, I wanted to share a recap of some of the recipes I’m making this year, and some other ideas I’ve used in the past. Obviously, they’re mostly dessert, but there’s some delicious salad, and of course, some incredible dinner rolls. If you’re still trying to […]...
