Yes, another gratuitous picture post because life is keeping me from blogging, but I’m not ready to give up on a daily post just yet. Don’t give up on me. I’ll be back soon; I promise!

Randomness: Because I Procrastinated Edition

December 22, 2011

I was going to post my one year plan for Reverb today — and compare it with where I’d like to be in five, ten and twenty — but before I knew it we were getting ready to go to bed and I was running out of time. A one year plan can’t be [...]

This post actually has nothing to do with my cat. I mean, other than the picture of him at the top, of course. I just didn’t have any other pictures handy and thought, what the heck? Who doesn’t like a gratuitous cat portrait now and again? Plus, you know, the camera just [...]

Randomness: A Reverb-ish Edition

December 19, 2011

I’m torn. I want to answer today’s Reverb Prompt, but I also think a good brain dump would do my mind a lot of good. Its been a long weekend and my head isn’t exactly a treasure trove of clarity.

It’s been unseasonably warm this winter in our part of Michigan. In the past week we’ve had days where the daytime temperatures climbed well into the forties and fifties.

It’s not traditional; to serve your lamb curry atop smashed turnips, but it is delicious and a great way to use one of the few harvests that are still rolling in during this unseasonably warm Michigan December.
Every year I mean to participate in (not so) Urban Hennery’s Dark Days Challenge — an exercise in [...]

Sugar-Free 2012: The Gauge

December 15, 2011

As I’ve begun taking this whole making-2012-a-sugar-free-year thing more and more seriously I’ve found myself becoming both excited and nervous as hell. Have you ever really paid attention to how much stuff has sugar in it? I have. Because I happen to be a sugar addict who acknowledged her problem long ago [...]

Randomness: Dreary Wednesday Edition

December 14, 2011

Today is one of those days where I know if I do not get it done now it will not get done. Any of it. I stayed up too late last night and morning came too early this morning. My body is achy, not because of lack of sleep but because of [...]
