Mom's recipes
I've had a few people ask for recipes that weren't posted in my last entry, so here you go. (And Laura - they're dairy-free (so long as you can find something to replace chocolate chips in the first one...) These two are ones that I've gotten from my mother. I have no idea of her sources, and we've both modified them anyway.

The weekend
So this past weekend marked our officially being married 1 year, or 22 months, depending on which date you're counting from. Glen was very sweet and actually got me a real present, the gorgeous Calvin and Hobbes box set I'd been longing for. Being a loser, I didn't get him anything, so instead, I baked a ton of stuff on Sunday. I made two types ( Read more... ) -
Retrieving and repetitions
The dog was funny last week. Although she mostly only mouths or chews up her own stuff, two incidents last week amused me. In the first, a gust of wind blew a receipt off the table. I didn't notice it had fallen until Samus picked it up in her mouth and then looked at me as if to say, "Now what?" She wasn't chewing it; just holding it and ( Read more... ) -

For example, I'm not sure I could distinguish The Iliad and The Odyssey very well... Of the 34 books I mark as "read", 28 of them were completed during high school. P.S. As is obvious, I hate Jane Austin...

The magic button
Frustration of the afternoon was finding we had none of the internets when I got home from work. This was not only annoying but functionally limiting because I was supposed to be working from home in the afternoon and owed Amy a section of my review. So I had to call her and explain she likely wouldn't be getting it until tomorrow morning.

Thump
Walking the dog yesterday, I saw a curtain in a window of a house fluttering, despite the fact the window was closed. When I got in front of the house, I saw a small grey kitten clinging to the lace curtain, struggling (whether to get farther on or off, I don't know), with its little furry white belly thumping against the glass. It was very cute ( Read more... ) -
Been a while, and stuff
Things have been moving along, the way things tend to do when you have neither time nor inclination to pay attention. We've now been in our house for over a year, and are approaching our 5 years of dating anniversary as well as our one year of marriage anniversary. Sort of. But if you know what I mean, you know what I mean ( Read more... ) -
