I am dog-sitting for Jane from Church; she has two dogs, Casey and Kitty. I thought I was going to have two dogs and a cat when she was talking about them on Sunday, but no, one of the dogs is named Kitty. Kind of funny. My roommate Megan had to sleep on the couch Thursday night because Casey, a shi-tzu (sp?), would not budge from her bed. ( Read more... )

So, y'all do know that Rosa Parks died on Monday, right? She was pretty old, so it's not too much of a shocker. It's still pretty sad because she was such an icon of the Civil Rights Movement. And August Wilson, one of the greatest playwrights died earlier in the month. Those are the sad thoughts of the day, I suppose...

I just made eggplant rollatini and it was so good! But not as good as the rollatini Liz made. Thank you so much for the recipe Liz! I'll try to work up to your level next time I make it ( Read more... )

Would someone like to buy a ticket to see The Bravery for $16? I can't go and it would be a terrible waste of a ticket! Plus, I would like to buy food, so if someone would buy a ticket or find someone they know who would be interested, this would be really helpful.

...is really really cool. Though I was expecting a lot more home-grown things. I used to love stopping at the side of the road to get tomatoes or peaches or whatever from some old person. The things they sell at this market do come from growers (obviously), but it's mass produced and not from a group of vines lovingly obsessed over. I still ( Read more... )

So, yeah, at church every Sunday morning breakfast is served for everyone so that networking of people who attend different services is possible. I have long since tired of meeting new people in the mornings, so I have a group of regulars I sit with. Unfortunately, I was very late getting down there and no more room was available for me at the ( Read more... )

Let me be honest with you: after Hurricane Katrina left the Florida area, I totally stopped paying attention to it. But then, I hear it's heading for NOLA, my city, and I'm like, holy shit are you serious? I was told my whole family had evacuated to Ruston in northern LA, but then I FINALLY talked to my cousin on Thursday. Turns out, Aunt Connie ( Read more... )

Let me just begin this by saying I love all the people who attend our parties and I really enjoy their company. When I am expecting a large crowd of people, I usually try to put away pretty things that I do not want destroyed. Also, when I am expecting these people whom I love, I am expecting a certain level of trust to exist between us, that ( Read more... )
