Finally, Passover is over. I did both seders this year: eleven the first night and twelve the second night. The unfortunate thing is that it was supposed to be anywhere between 8 and 18 both nights, which was a lot of stress. It ended up being okay though. Thank God I didn't ruin the $100 brisket. I was so worried I would. I think I've gotten ( Read more... )

I think my birthday was a roaring success. I spent all day Saturday with Rachel getting ready for my party. We did a lot of grocery shopping, cooking, baking, and walking around the block because it was too nice of a day to spend cooped up in the kitchen. The menu consisted of skirt steak, kale, and twice-baked potatos. For dessert I made a red ( Read more... )

Why is the internet so boring? I'm trying to distract myself from my misery and there's literally nothing. I wish I had a tv.

If I start to think about my life, my head will explode.
