I let her holler insults at me while she measures my BMI.I'll get her the little wii mii.I have to admit I like it when

The Day After

Christmas was lovely. I cooked (despite my lack of domestic skills of late), Pupcake fetched Momma Betty, the kidlets came, and we had the best time drinking wine, playing Super Mario Bros (sooooo much fun even if I SUCK!), listening to The Beatles (thanks Pupcake! The best present ever!), and watching movies all cozied up in our afghans and snuggies.So, while attempting to make whipped cauliflo

Oh Dear and Oh Oh

Pup and I remodeled our house a bit about a year ago, the kitchen being the biggest thing we tackled. It's quite lovely, but I must admit to not entirely loving the appliances we picked out.We went with a company called LG. They look spiff, but I truly wanted a Sub-Zero fridge and a Wolf range. I don't have a Sub-Zero or Wolf budget so we bought the LGs. Piles I must say.So, last night I'm making

Promises

I won’t add music to my blog. I love me some good music, but people!, your music is annoying. (Is that complaining? See below.)I won’t apologize only to please.

Obsession

I have a new one.I’ve been toying with my wrecking ball approach to a new me for a bit now. I do love the phrase “wrecking ball.” It alludes (with a huge iron ball!) to tearing down the old to make way for new new new. I’ve been floundering around a bit in my ADD way and having some trouble getting started.So one morning I’m reading my blogs from Google Reader and listening to the Lori & Juli

Giving Back & Helping OutDuring my second year final exam I was up late working on a project and an interesting documentary on Primordial Dwarfism caught my eye: a story of a 13 year old girl called Hannah, and it showed the every day struggles of these individuals.
