“I am consistently inconsistent."

February 12, 2008

I don’t own a Polaroid instant camera, and I don’t really know anyone who does. In fact, I don’t know a single person who doesn’t own a digital camera. I saw a lady at the zoo last summer who had a wind up disposable camera, and hubby and I privately mocked her endlessly for the [...]

Letting our freak flags fly.

February 11, 2008

“Your son is wearing Cars pajamas and snow boots.” “So.” “In church?” Of all the advice I have gotten in my two short years of parenting, and let me tell you, EVERYONE is always giving advice, it would be to choose your battles. Truer words were never spoken. I am comfortable in this relaxed lifestyle, [...]

Szechwan Shrimp

February 9, 2008

Lent is upon us, and that means many a meatless Friday. So to jazz up a Lenten dinner that would normally consist of fish sticks and steak fries, I am going to spend the next few Fridays exploring shrimp. On the menu this week, a spicy little number. While I am always apprehensive of any [...]

Everyone relax, I am not peeing on anything today.

February 8, 2008

I think it’s funny that, once I reached a certain age, I can never just be sick anymore, there is always a hint of suspicion. It seems, because I am a woman of childbearing years, any whisper of nausea or flu-like symptoms earns a “tsk, tsk,” “wink, wink,” and a dramatic head nod toward the [...]

The Company I Keep

February 8, 2008

I like to surround myself with the most gorgeous, hilarious, and wicked clever girls around. Plus I naturally gravitate towards any person who uses ellipses as much as I do. Case and point…my darling friend Bunny Mendelbaum. Not gonna lie, I peed my pants a little on this one. Part of my Inheritance… You’re the [...]

60 Easy Minutes to Yum

February 6, 2008

I am sure everyone has a version of this dish. It’s the easiest thing to make when it’s yucky outside, and you are too tired to get all fancy. It’s also easy to alter, add in some fresh veggies, or different soup flavors. Here is the version I grew up with, and the “I won’t [...]

Because I am better at this than you are.

February 5, 2008

Why am I in charge of smelling everything? Hubby: Do you think son #1 pooped?Me (cooking dinner): I would have no idea. He then walks up to me, holding said son, and puts his diapered butt in my face. Um, yeah…smells like poop. Hubby: Which one of these is a formula bottle, and which one [...]

It’s 4am, let’s forget it ever happened.

February 4, 2008

I find that when you are up at 4 am, things happen that maybe wouldn’t happen at say…6am. The crazy things that go on my head that early, make my 6am self just wants to kick the shit out of my 4 am self. It starts with a bit of self pity, that quickly rolls [...]

Enchiladas

February 1, 2008

I rarely tackle Mexican food. I blame acid reflux, and a general distaste for beans. So, it takes a really yummy recipe to get me on board, and my mom’s enchiladas do the trick! Like all my recipes, this is low fat….snort….just kidding.  I love fat pants.  Feel free to low fat this one up [...]

Gag me with a spoon.

February 1, 2008

I should warn you, if you were not a pre-teen or teenage girl in the late 80′s or early 90′s…please stop reading now. This entry will make absolutely no sense to you! So I was dicking around online, and stumbled upon mention of something that tossed me right back into fourth grade. I think. Wait, [...]
