Things I didn’t do last night: this. Things I did instead. Watched Lemonade on repeat. Maybe four times. Maybe more. I even made a nasty lemonade drink with a little hot sauce as attempted tribute to the album. Definite fail. However the picture didn’t totally suck so I still posted it on social media. Word to […]

I’m not really a person who brunches…. anymore. Having a child who literally turns into wild bull whenever we dine out can be a daunting task in the AM, especially when having to parent solo – so I’ve learned to bow out on any public food gatherings and save a little face along with gray hairs.   But I […]

Every day I’m hassling. No, seriously, I am. Sweet potato hasselbacks are literally exploding in my kitchen. I made so damn much that I have enough to last me a life time.

Apparently nothing has changed, and more than likely never will.  So this is why I am going on an air diet. After my coffee.  Okay maybe after lunch.  And dinner.  And wine. because my […]

Spring is here. And now I remember why I hate birds. Especially the birds who clearly have tourettes. We heard you on the first tweet, seriously. Do us a favor, clip your wings and fall out of a tree please.  And these birds ain’t no mocking jays. This is when one needs to acquire  “Dennis […]
