I cook because I can't afford a therapist
Sometimes you just need some bright and beautiful. It’s august. Where has the time gone? I find myself clinging to summer like it’s that last day of vacation and the sun is falling down on the horizon but if you stand there and stare at it, maybe it’ll last just one moment longer. Don’t come…
well hey there November, didn’t you just come in like a bloody wrecking ball? whether you’re an indians fan or a cubs fan, a democrat or a republican – it’s been a head-spinning. roller coaster of a fall in my little world. sometimes you need to take life by the teaspoon. i don’t know what…

hey, girl, heyyyyy. (or boy. is there a boy that reads this blog? if so, that might change things. or it might not. probably not. there’s really only one mode when i get to typing here on this typewriter/iMac. the new year has made me nostalgic for the past.) speaking of the past, do you…
i’m having a serious love affair right now. i am swooning over this weather and these fall vegetables. i’m just on board with the fresh produce. which is kind of a miracle on 34th street because this time of year is all about the carbs, and the butta. is there a single recipe that calls…
