DVD

As I said a couple weeks ago, I’ve happily welcomed Netflix back into my life. I asked for suggestions for good documentaries and got a ton — so here’s a little round-up of what I’ve watched so far! “Every Little Step.” (At Libby’s suggestion.) This follows the hopeful actors who auditioned for the recent Broadway [...]

Good afternoon! I’m back! I must say, I’m glad to know I’m not the only person who is troubled by an inability to sleep. (And yes, that is my bed and my teal wall — I’m not a total creeper, photographing other people’s beds and then writing them suggestive letters!) Anyway, thinking about sleep munchies [...]

Bedding Down

Seriously, I don’t know what is going on with me this week, but I can’t remember the last time I’ve felt this consistently sleep-deprived for no apparent reason. Sleep is probably the most important thing to my healthy and happy lifestyle. I don’t give up sleep for anything.* I most certainly don’t give it up [...]

treasure map

In Lesson #18: How to be Wrong About a Guy and Be OK, I wrote about how I truly believe that every guy who doesn’t work out gets you closer to the right guy, and that I could make a map from all the Threes, Fours, and would-be Fives I’ve been wrong about to where [...]

broccoli soup

[As I promised yesterday, I am sharing my healthy broccoli cheese soup recipe! But if you haven't voted yet, please do -- voting is open for two more days! I was browsing the entries last night and I'm pretty sure mine is the only one to contain the words "vibrator," "shit show," and "baby killer." [...]

Get a Little Buzzed!

I really appreciated the showing of support/general shock/mild amusement/appreciation for my style from all of you who enjoyed my Project Food Blog entry video on Saturday (and if you haven’t seen it yet, check ittt). As I said, funny girls never win anything, and, well, this video isn’t exactly a dramatic interpretation of my food [...]

We all know that looking great means dressing for your body. And if you’re confused about how to dress your body, the women’s magazines are here to help! I have a stack of new magazines piled almost as tall as the lamp on my bedside table, and each issue offers me advice. OK. We get [...]

Sunday Dinner: Going Deep

September 19, 2010
pizza

This pizza…is money. I’m usually a (ultra?) thin-crust girl, but when I saw this recipe from Cooking Light, I decided it was time to go a little deeper. I made some changes to the original recipe. First, I opted against making the dough from scratch. It’s a simple enough recipe, but with my car in [...]

Fact: I rarely win contests. The crowd will like me and I’ll be really proud of what I did, but there’s always that “But we can’t take her home to mom…“ problem. And really, no matter the contest, I’ve accepted the simple fact that comedy never beats drama. So now I just enter them because [...]
