Crap, My Kid has a Spelling Test Tomorrow Noodle Thing
I don’t know about your school, but for some reason mine likes to think they’re a grade ahead of everything. Which means my second grader is getting spelling words on a third grade level. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not touting my kid as ‘reading on a third grade level.’ I’m criticizing my school for [...]
More...Seriously?
I’ve always been amazed by the marketing efforts of certain eating establishments as they attempt to entice customers to buy their delicious delicacies with their most appealing of food displays. And I’m supposed to pay $14.95 for this??? Would you? Just in case you’re not gagging already, here’s another angle. Seriously. It’s a dreary [...]
More...Still Undecided…
about what to be for Halloween this year? No silly, this is not about the election! I’d NEVER do that on my blog. Because then I’d be one of those people who talks about who I’m voting for, or, worse, puts signs up in my yard and then you’d judge me. If I said OBAMA [...]
More...The Year of the Dragon…Mandarin Sesame Noodles
The Chinese New Year is coming up on January 23, 2012 — it’s the year of the Dragon. According to ChineseZodiac.com, “Dragons prefer to live by their own rules and if left on their own, are usually successful. They’re driven, unafraid of challenges, and willing to take risks. They’re passionate in all they do and [...]
More...Memories of Madeline
I just came home from work to find my dog eating my rug. I’m pissed. But not just because he ate my rug and had the audacity to continue eating as I walked in. Because it’s a MADELINE WEINRIB rug that I got at ABC Carpet for a steal after finding it on the bottom [...]
More...What’s Old Is New Again
Trying to reinvent recipes you’ve cooked for years is not an easy task. But if you’re someone who gets bored easily (read: me) with food (subtext: routine, life, work, etc…) it’s up to you to find ways to bring those recipes back to life. Sometimes it works organically and you get divine inspiration to make [...]
More...Bring. On. The. Bread.
I don’t know about you, but I’m in the market for some SERIOUS CARBS right now. I’m talking Pasta, Pizza, French Bread, Rye Bread, Bread Crumbs, Bread Pudding, or just good old fashioned White Bread…Southern style…with mayonnaise. Yeah, that’s how desperate I am for this stuff. It’s only been a week but not eating bread [...]
More...A Dash of Spring with a Touch of Reality
There’s a lot going on in the world right now. It’s scary. If I had more time to read the paper I’d feel well versed enough to discuss it in detail like I did in college. There are wars happening pretty much everywhere, teachers aren’t getting paid enough, kids bring weapons to school, natural disasters [...]

I Don’t Even Know What to Title This One…
Today’s chaos started when I realized my dog has a cold. I actually didn’t think that was possible. They can’t get stomach flu and they can’t get lice (two things I wish I didn’t know so much about) so I guess I’m lucky. But when your dog starts sneezing uncontrollably, is lethargic and won’t fetch, [...]
