Pumpkin with a 'stache

BOO.

Happy Halloween. And Happy Mew Year to to those of you who reside in Tonga. And are cats. I know what you’re thinking…Halloween was yesterday. Well, I slept through the entire day thanks to the Ambien and all those wine coolers. So I’m celebrating today. … Read More

Smell? What Smell?

Last week I sent away my husband (as I often do) with the children (as I often do) to have lunch at a greasy fast food joint-combo healthy raw vegan bistro. I know you’re asking yourself if such a place exists. Yes. In my mind. … Read More

Crazy. Oh Yes I Am.

Oh hey. Contrary to those pesky Internet rumors swirling around, I’m still alive. I did like the story of how I fell to my death tightrope walking over a canyon filled with bubbling shrimp bisque. I don’t even care for bisque. Or walking. I’ve. Been. … Read More

Just Because…

The Week In Review

This is it. It’s all I’ve got. Chinese New Year. I’m the proud owner of a Taiwanese dog and he likes to party.

Fruit Crisp

*sigh*

I thought I’d start this post out on an effervescent note with a lovely photo of this delectable fruit crisp I baked earlier in the week. Nobody ate it so it got all moldy and stinky so I threw it out. Why? Bodilyfluidpolooza ’11. Wooooohoooooooh! … Read More

Sink

Happy New Yea…Oh Nevermind

Here I am! Over here, underneath that pile of unwashed dishes sitting in my sink, growing crud. Can you see me? Too bad, because I got my hair cut the other day and I totally look like a supermodel. Or the executive assistant to a … Read More

Shopping? Not Me

I’m having a hard time believing that Christmas is only a few weeks away. That means I must buy presents. I’ve decided to make it easy and get my kids just one thing: four cases of dried cod. A child’s dream, right? The cat knocked … Read More

Cough Cough Cough

This is my doctor’s office. I know, I know. I told Dr. Von Gingivitus she needs to freshen up the place a bit. A new coat of vomit yellow paint, a proper examining table (a mechanical bull is kitschy and cool but not terribly comfortable … Read More
