Untitled. Yep, that’s all I got.

UPDATE (Jan. 30, 2010): This is hands down, the laziest blogging move I have ever pulled.  I published this post on the 26th, but got distracted and forgot to pimp it on twitter.
But. I do have a reason (yes, other than laziness) for wanting to update and edit it.  The original post was about things [...]

Slow Readers Book Club

Cathy | January 24, 2010

One of the changes I’ve been wanting to make is to spend more time reading.  I’ve always been a big reader, but lately the only reading I’ve been doing has consisted almost exclusively of  tweets, facebook status updates, blogs and smutty fanfiction.
To keep this goal from being like all the other things I intend to [...]

Back Burner Recipe Contest

Cathy | January 19, 2010

Holy crap you guys.
I’m a finalist in a recipe contest.  I almost didn’t even enter, but it’s an Aiming Low thing and they are all about being lazy things being easy so I figured I could probably handle it.
One of our favorite recipes is also one of the easiest recipes to make ever.  So, it [...]

Where rocking horse people eat marshmallow pies

Cathy | January 15, 2010

I have insomnia.  It comes and goes, but I’ve been dealing with it for as long as I can remember.
Sometimes it’ll leave me alone for months at a time.
Sometimes it’ll show up for a day or two and then go away.
Sometimes, like now, it’ll show up and hang on for weeks and weeks.
For at least [...]

Speaking of not censoring myself anymore…

Cathy | January 11, 2010

You might notice it looks a little bit different around here.
I finally wrote that About page and we cleaned things up a bit.  I say “we” because my husband did all the actual work.
I was happy with the basic design, I just wanted it to be a little simpler, cleaner, and for it to be [...]

I have triumphed over adversity. and pee-stained carpets.

Cathy | January 8, 2010

Like so many other people, I started working out again this week.  Not because it was a resolution, but because with the chaos of the move and then the holidays, there just wasn’t time.  Or room.
I prefer to work out in the privacy of my own home.  At one point in my life I was [...]

My Give-a-Damn’s Busted

Cathy | January 6, 2010

Or, alternately titled: “I’m Baaaaack!”
See, here’s what happened.  The more readers I got, the more… stifled I was feeling.  And the more uncomfortable I felt being myself.
It doesn’t help that my family reads.  As far as I can figure every family member except my dad is reading now.  And maybe he’s even reading now and [...]

Holiday Recipes

Cathy | January 2, 2010

Another reason I need to stop letting half-finished posts sit in my drafts folder forever?  My terrible memory.
I was trying to get into the habit of posting recipes more frequently, especially since we’ve been trying a lot of new ones lately. But when it started getting to be mid-December and our Thanksgiving meal post was [...]
