Believe it or not, I am still cooking chicken every Sunday for the week. And although fitness levels wax and wane, I credit these preplanned lunches for keeping me at about the same weight I was last year when I…
Friday 5: Food Me Once; Food Me Twice
Hello, refreshed blog! Let’s do a Friday 5! Remember those? I do! This week’s topic is “Food Me Once; Food Me Twice.” Speaking of which, I’m going back and cleaning up categories and tags. So far I have 55 posts…
Easter Sunday
Happy Easter! This weekend zoomed by in a puff of flour. I spent yesterday baking Easter bread and ham pies with mom…and then gave them all away, like the magnanimous person I am. Or rather, the person who would eat…
February update
Hello, lovelies! I was going to quietly sunset this blog after the last post but UGH I miss it too much. So you’re stuck with sporadic updates until I die or retire and can’t afford hosting, I guess. Today is…
Goodbye, January!
Today is day 15 of our “omg what is WRONG with us we need to turn this around NOW” life plan. I’m so stinking proud of us. The plan is as follows: Eat our own food. No takeout. (Wednesday dinner…
Zumba class, week 1
I signed up for a Zumba class through my township’s recreation program. I went to one class almost exactly five years ago (Something about September that makes me do silly things to stave off mortality, I guess) and PREDICTABLY* never…
Wednesday Potpourri

Not the Biggest Loser
I have no idea how this happened (okay I do) but Charlie’s now 30 lbs. Not too sure how to deal with this, as he, Misty, and Max share the same bowl of food.* He’s not much of an exerciser,…
Webkeeping – April 2007
Every now and then I’ll run site stats. The most fascinating part is the search referrer section. That’s where I can see what people were searching for in Google/Yahoo when they found my site. I deliberately misspelled some of these…
QPwC
I watched SuperSize Me last week, via Netflix. It was a great, great movie. I was completely horrified at the effects that McDonald’s food had on Morgan Spurlock. (Who is very cute in an intellectual way.) But I have to…
moment of un-zen
I’m very tired of members of The Greatest Generation not holding the elevator door while I dash frantically through the front doors of the building. I’m very tired of their dentured Cheshire grins while the elevator slams shut and my…
