I watched Steel Magnolias today, and somehow, that led me down a rabbit hole of random fact hunting. What? I don’t know. I’m an IMDber. It’s who I am. First of all, I kinda wish big southern hair was in again. Not a fact hunting discovery or anything, just…you know…I mean, it’s kinda awesome. Second, […]...
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 […]...
Have you been to a grocery on a Saturday or Sunday lately? Particularly one of those giant warehouse ones? Personally, I have a rule about grocery stores and weekends; a very, very strict rule that I only break under dire circumstances: No grocery stores on the weekend. Period. Unless I desperately need something. Otherwise, you […]...
These cookies gave me writer’s block. Really. I had this great idea to make them. I made them. They were delicious. I ate them. Then, I sat down to write this post. After staring at my keyboard for way too long, without having a single thought, besides how much I just wanna go eat another […]...
I did something last week that I swore to myself I would never do. Ever. I’m just gonna come out and say it… I…*ahem* I… Iputbaconinacupcake. There. I said it. Are you happy? I put bacon in a cupcake. What? I did. Shut up. The whole thing just felt wrong. I know there are a […]...
Did I tell you guys that I did the whole Black Friday thing for, like, the first time ever this year? Well, I did. Here are the facts: 1. I do not live in a big ole city with lots and lots of people in and around it (thank goodness…zombie apocalypse, hello?). 2. I have […]...
Sorry for the lack of posting this week, you guys. I was kinda busy, and I didn’t plan ahead at all and get something crazy good made in advance so that I wouldn’t have to think or work all weekend (cause I’m a professional). I think I may have mentioned that I was going to […]...
When we lived in Vermont, I had real maple syrup for the very first time. Well, that’s not entirely true… I’d had it before but it had been low quality and I was convinced I didn’t like it. Then we moved to The Maple Syrup Capital of the World: Vermont. The whole maple sugar process […]...
Before we moved from Maine, I bought some maple sugar. I had every intention of making a cake with it, but time kept slipping by and things got busier and busier. I never even opened the package. It’s pretty sad, really, considering that I spent the last 6 years living in Vermont and Maine, that […]...
