Early birthday fun

The turkey soup was WONDERFUL! I fixed some tiny star shaped pasta noodles to go in the hot soup, and we ate it with fresh crusty italian bread. I kept the rest of the stock on the stove for a few more hours before straining and cooling it. This morning when I took the [...]

comfort

this is not to draw attention away from my thanksgiving/handjob or christmas card whoring posts below, but I just wanted to say that since I feel icky today, and didn’t have much to do at work, I left early. I went to the farmers market, bought some turkey wings and necks, herbs, and onions, [...]

Christmas cards!!!

I have bought both Christmas and suitably holiday neutral cards for blogville! All I need is your address. If you want to get a christmas or suitably holiday neutral card from me, email me (use the link on my sidebar) your address. I promise I won’t stalk you. (fingers crossed)

Thanksgiving in Dixie

We didn’t arrive at Kevin’s mom’s house until after midnight, local time, (after 1am, atlanta time), almost an hour later than planned because of a bad plan by Kev’s mom to send us around a damaged bridge. The new route was wrong, and we had to backtrack and go the original way, which didn’t [...]

Sweet Home Alabama

This will most likely be my last post until next week. Today we brave the storms, tornado warnings, and crazed families in minivans, to drive out to Kevin’s mom’s house in Alabama. Where in Alabama? You’ve never heard of it. Trust me. People who LIVE in Alabama have never heard of it. I like [...]

…in the power socks series

I know they’re halloweeny (note the glow in the dark ghosts on the big toes.) but come on, if you owned these socks, wouldn’t YOU wear them year round?

I’ll try to post something better that’s not about rum cake or socks later (wait, IS THERE SOMETHING BETTER [...]

The captain was here

One of our post-docs just got back from a conference in Bermuda (I know, I know…what a sacrifice). She brought us back a rum cake to enjoy.

It’s RUM!!!

In CAKE FORM!!!!

Life has never been so magical…

Weekenders – **UPDATED**

Somewhat of a productive weekend, surprisingly enough. Saturday Kevin went into to work (after sleeping in because I kept snuggling up against him, and really, how do you leave a warm bed with someone to snuggle with on a saturday? you just don’t.) So I had most of the day to FINALLY get all [...]

The bondage chicken strikes back.

Because I’m bored, I did a google search for “bondage chicken”. I got a disturbing mix of porn and recipe sites. Some were porn sites that had recipes. I scrolled through 22 pages of search results, and did not find myself. I am sorely disappointed.

However:

I want this.

also,

This was pretty damned [...]

bad boys, bad boys…

So let me start off by saying that I do NOT live in the ghetto. Well, not really. Not like crime is a daily occurance outside my door. There have been a couple of incidents since I moved into my condo 4 years ago, mostly involving stupid punk-ass kids, but that’s about it.

Chattiest!
