I feel like my general goal for starting this blog has kind of gone to the wayside. I started doing this with the intention of learning better ways to make things I love, and also to make them healthier. I feel like I’ve gotten away from that and haven’t been actually making that effort to… Read more

A New Decade
Today is a big day for me. I hit a new decade in life. Today I turn 30. I am terrified of getting older, of having to actually be an adult. I know I can’t be a Toys R Us kid for the rest of my life, but 30? That’s huge. Oh boy. Lets see… Read more
Leave Of Absence
I’m sure everyone has noticed that I have fallen off the planet again. With everything going on in life, its been one of the roughest years I can remember. So with that said, I’m taking an official leave of absence from writing until the first of the year. This doesn’t mean I haven’t stopped making… Read more
New Teas, Caffeine, And Rant
I need a vacation. I know it almost feels like I’ve taken a vacation from writing but it’s more along the lines that I just haven’t had the energy to. I’ve spent all my time and energy concentrating on work, training people, working overtime, and working with the Husband at a Retro Gaming Expo. (I… Read more

Trying New Things – Cherries

And I know most kids go through stages when they wouldn’t eat things because… they’re kids and just don’t. But man, I was a pain in the ass. Seriously. I think… Read more
Have I Lost My Cooking Powers?
I’ve had a rough time lately, but it’s not just one thing. The economy sucks, stress sucks, a lot of things suck. I’ve had a lot of “things” recently in my life that have seemed to just throw me out of balance. Sadly it’s also given me cooking block. I’m used to writers block or… Read more
I Have Been To The Edge…
Do you ever get those weird voices in your head as you’re about to do something? Like sitting down to write after a long absence do you suddenly hear a creepy voice in your head saying “I have been to the edge…and back! And I survived… Only slightly…” It’s as though a pirate has stolen… Read more
Inspired/Insane Cooking
We all know about my love of making mass meals to freeze and have waiting to take to work. Well I think I got just a little too inspired the other day in my cooking conquests. I made 3 different meals, and enough to feed an army as well. I really do have this really… Read more
