Remember last week when I said I wasn’t going to be posting new recipes anytime soon? Well I’m a big fat hairy liar, minus the extra wooly pounds part. Hear me out. My treachery was never deliberate, I swear. I even understand your reluctance to trust me, especially since I called myself a trickster, not to be…
Getting Thankful
When I mentioned my rather rebellious rut earlier this week, I didn’t mean I was actually going to stop writing. Good heavens no. I fully intend to blog my way through this dry spell if only because I’m stubborn, in a way that makes Tarzan look tame. Was Tarzan stubborn? ‘Eh, you get the idea. What I…
What The Rut?
This blogging consistency stuff is tough, especially when you have nothing to say. Actually I have loads of ideas… fine, I have a solid handful of ideas, I’m just a little lost on where to start, and since intros are my bread and butter, not to be confused with actual bread and butter, it’s left…
I Mustache You Some Questions
Blogging surveys are the shining stars which beckon when post ideas are nowhere in sight. Since I expended all my resourcefulness in the kitchen this weekend by cooking up a freaking storm, I was happy to discover Ms. Broccoli tagged me in this fun little foursome of a Q&A session. It makes threesomes look mild. Alright, that was an exaggeration. I do that sometimes and call it…
Apple Pizza with Caramelized Onions and Crispy Sage in Brown Butter (The Johnny Apple Cheese Pizza)
When pumpkin mania swept the blog world this past Fall, I tried to turn a blind eye and some days I even covered my ears, while chanting, “I’m not listening.” I’m super duper mature, says the girl who just typed out the words super duper. I promise never to do that again. If you know me, you realize pumpkin has…
#PoppingTags
Hashtags are a relatively new concept for me. (source) Let’s face it. I grew up in an era where selfies, smart phones and social media didn’t even exist, so the fact I’m slowly and steadily acclimating myself with hashtags is a wonder to behold; perhaps even a thing of beauty with some sparkles on top. A…
Currently: November 2014
I have been a bad blogger. Now go back and read that first sentence in a naughty voice. See all better now, right? No, damn. I was hoping I could flirt my way out of my umpteenth disappearing act this Fall. At least I’m consistent with not being consistent, although the simple truth is I owe you an apology….
The Fitness Industry Makes Me Sad
I have a very different definition of what constitutes healthy compared to the fitness industry. Before I get into the specifics of my opening statement, I’m going to share a story. Back in July, I did a free fitness assessment at my gym. Of course, I expected to blow the scale out of the water with my…
Top Ten Signs You Participate in a CSA
I think it’s high time we talk veggies; farm share veggies to be exact. Yes, I’m absolutely glossing over my disappearing act. What can I say? Life got in the way and I needed a sabbatical, partially due to my CSA, so this post is more than fitting, in a you don’t need lubrication to get there kind…
Thoughts That Go Through My Mind While Running
Running is not easy for me; it never has been. While I love a good ass kicking type workout, perpetually placing one foot in front of the other in a hastened manner has never been It for me. Despite that very daunting fact, I find myself lacing up and hitting the streets more and more often lately. Maybe I finally lost my marbles, or…
