In which there’s a little northern Indian food festival in the kitchen! Last night, I cooked. A lot. Rajma masala, cumin rice, and curried spinach to be exact! I’d never made rajma before, so I googled a few recipes, read them carefully, and then went ahead and cooked. The outcome was stunning, if I do […]
In which I’m quite recovered from my melancholy. I’ve known for awhile that The Ex has himself a new squeeze, though folks have been trying to hide it from me. (No need to, I’m glad to hear it.) I’ve put a few clues together from various things I was told at the party and things […]
In which it’s a holiday weekend. I’m in a bit of a funk because I can’t get this script to work and I don’t know why. Nor could I get this plugin to work. No lifestream for me. *pout* I took this today when I went to pick up the mail for work. Those are […]
In which there’s trailer trash food, tequila, and chocolate cake. Yesterday was Baby Girl’s birthday. Happy Birthday, Baby Girl!!! After work I met her and her hubby at the Dead Cock. There were shots of tequila. Then more shots. There were two dudes there who were also celebrating their birthdays. Some time went by. We […]
In which these are the details, as they’re currently known, of the upcoming barn party & jam. Who: The Ex He’s throwing a big barn party out at the farm – with food and beer and music and a gigantic bonfire – before the weather gets too hot and buggy. What: Huge barn party… with […]
In which it was the best time I’ve ever had outdoors in the Midwest! Yesterday I traveled the Mississippi on a pontoon boat with some friends. I got a sunburn. I’d been wearing sunglasses all day, so today I look like a raccoon. The skin on my cheeks, forehead, and nose is bright red and […]
In which it’s good to be home. In other words: I’m back, bitches! Oh, people, I had so much fun in Vail! It was, on the surface, a really lovely little jaunt. The surroundings were awesome, the gig went well, I did some knitting, I bonded with the other players in the band, we pre-sold […]
In which I’m on musician time. We were supposed to leave at four. Now we’re leaving at seven. And these boys are clean, if you catch my drift, nothing to blame it on but musician time. With the hope that I will be able to use a pool, whirlpool, or sauna at the hotel this […]
In which I’m rather looking forward to leaving town. I finished my laundry last night, and found a piece of luggage, and threw the stuff I’ll be taking into a pile in the middle of my room. Then I cooked for an hour, because I felt like cooking. Chana chole. Rice with cumin and peas. […]
In which GUESS WHO UNTHINKINGLY WASHED ONLY HER SUMMER CLOTHES like a dumb ass?! I’m no stranger to the mountains. I’ve been meaning to check the Vail forecast for a week now, because I knew it would be cooler up there. I finally did. Check the forecast, I mean. And a good thing, too, because […]
