I'm trying to be more healthy with Lent. Last week I bought radishes and like three things I thought were cilantro (and weren't). But the biggest fail . . . well . . . I have a lot of fruit allergies, but... Continue Reading →
Two weeks into Lent and so far, mostly good on the no wine/fries/chocolate thing. I believe in the Lent where you get one day off a week (if you want) because there are technically 46 days between Ash Wednesday and Easter,... Continue Reading →
I am in the last 24 hours of my current vacation. It has been 53 days since I have worked. Isn't that obnoxious?! It's also lovely. Really, truly lovely. In that time, I've flown home to the States, had a... Continue Reading →
I love Thanksgiving. I love looking on facebook and instagram and seeing everyone get mushy about those they love, and taking a solid timeout from the angry-elfness that seems to be infecting the interwebs lately. I love the family photos... Continue Reading →
I found it kind of odd - sweet, to be sure, and lovely - to get so much feedback from my last post, a letter to my ex on his birthday, and I was wondering why people like reading about... Continue Reading →

I got to thinking about what we haven't seen and what we do need on this show. And you know what it is? It's me. Now I've already considered applying for the main role. But I also more enjoy eating and can't wear a dress without a bra. I have something different in mind. Introducing...
