Politics, shmolitics. Elephant in the room here. Tomorrow is election day and I think the “Dooms Day Preppers” are going to be having the last laugh. Any which way you spin it, it’s a total crap shoot and just like this recipe, Americas nuts are going to be up for roasting no matter the ending […]

So I have a thang for basically everything Regina Spektor. Why am I telling you this? Because. Beecaaauseeee. Her songs make me cry, and homegirl LOVES a good cry.

I’m so tired that I’ve accidentally kicked my clicker under the couch and am ‘stuck’ watching the Kardashians marathon that is slowly turning my brain in to overcooked pasghetti.  What you don’t know is that I love overcooked pasghetti, so bring it.

  Happy Hallows Eve! I remember back in high school my girlfriends and I decided to go around tossing eggs at kids who were vandalizing homes. We didn’t even make it past the first egg after an attempted toss which landed on the ceiling of my car, as oppose to out the window. That was embarrassment […]
