Whenever we have veggie dogs at Zackie’s, this Tastykake display
taunts me.

These Asiatic lilies have been incredibly fussy since I planted them,
so I’m thrilled to see a flower turn up.

Mangorita throwdown
Friday, June 6th, 2008
Is Addison’s mangorita the superior recipe or is Donna’s the ‘rita
done right? I don’t think I’ve sampled enough to say for sure. Back
for more.

Spoiled, spoiled kittehs

I can’t wait until it gets here.
The only problem is, if it’s really popular with the target demographic, I may have to order five more.
When Google gets in the way: a mini-rant
Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008Oh, and you know what’s annoying? How links in Google search results are all embedded with lots of Google-y stuff now, so you can’t just right click on a link in results to use for your own blogging purposes. You actually have to click through to the link and then copy it to clipboard, or manually click and select the unlinked URL from the bottom of the result entry. That’s seriously annoying.
Sorry. As you were.
Can’t a girl have a big-ass glass of booze anymore?
Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008If you saw this, you had to have known I’d be all over it. ("All over it" meaning, of course, linking to it lazily without much comment.) From Jezebel, a "Network"-worthy rant about our inalienable right to a cocktail or three:
Here’s the thing: We’ve got higher life expectancies these days but we’re in a fast-paced, globally-warmed, been-there-done-that, terrorism-threat-level-permanently-orangeish world where there are few legal ways to soothe the soul; and sometimes chocolate and pictures of kittens just aren’t enough. Many of us emerge from our square-ish homes, travel in boxy vehicles to spend the day in a cube of a workspace. Why not hit the bar for some actual social human interaction? The ancient Greeks had Dionysus; we have happy hour. The government thinks you drink too much? So what?! And if you’re successful, working hard, isn’t there something civilized about an after-work cocktail? Does anyone else want to raise a glass and toast the invention of alcohol?
Never fear: I do. Cheers.

I’m thinking of this as my reward to myself for editing my skirt wardrobe. Haven’t tried one yet, but I just KNOW they’re going to be amazing. I licked the spatula, after all.
