Today I finally made the flaxbread recipe I found here, and it turned out delicious! It’s an incredibly simple recipe. I didn’t even use almond meal, just simply the flaxmeal. I can wait to experiment with other flavors, as Kiva suggests. Here’s the “loaf” after it came out of the pan: I didn’t have a…
New experience for me: Today I got into my car to go to work, and pushed in the clutch, went to put the car into reverse… …and it wouldn’t go. Now, sometimes my gears can be a bit ornery, so I tried again. Nope. I tried other gears. Nothing. It simply would not go into…
I am so happy it’s the weekend. I am having a late breakfast and planning the day’s doings. I want to get more herbs to plant, find time to read (I’ve not been excited about a novel in quite a while, and now I’ve got not one but five that I wish I could read…
It’s Friday the 13th! I love ’em…always a good day for me. And to prove how these are always lucky for me…today I was named Employee of the Month at work. :-)
Love Google’s take on this today. Reminds me of years ago (15 or so) when I fell for an April Fool’s joke. Local radio station said the space shuttle was being forced to land at the Tampa airport, so without even considering the feasibility (or NOT) of this, I eagerly drove to a good vantage…
Ah, Saturdays. Love ’em. A day of getting up late, relaxing, puttering, and website fiddling. Probably some writing and movie-watching tossed in, too. But for a general update…hmmm, what’s been going on? Work has been crazy; there were layoffs, and those of us left must take up the slack. Which means we’re all, ahem, a…
I recently found some old books from grad school packed away, including some old favorite titles about cyberculture. In the mix was a book I’d written a review of for an online journal, and I decided to see if the review is still up. Voila, it is: My review of Cyberspace Textuality. Damn. I sounded…
So I want to resurrect some of my old blog layouts, ones I’ve made & loved (“whitewashed,” “apres ski,” “genrechick,” etc). But. They are not coded in current WordPress style, and I find that the idea of taking the hours it will take to convert them makes me sigh with resignation and reach for a…
Said during tonight’s pre-party while awaiting the arrival of guests… “Beer was made for chasing Early Times!” and “Tequila is the reason beer was invented.” So it begins…
My car is PAID. OFF!!! Miiineeeee…aallll miiiinnneeee pprreeccciiooouuusssss…….. *does day-long happy dance*
I am jet-crazy. I admit this. But I now have a new love…the V-22 Osprey! This thing looks *so* cool and hell, it’s a real-life transformer (well, sort of, haha–it can’t become a car): It’s a helicopter, and the rotors move forward to become a plane, and the two wings/nacelles can folds up on top…
Not sure why I’ve gotten out of the habit of blogging, besides the fact that I tend to spend my online time with TCF and chatting w/friends via messenger…bad blogger! So, let’s see what I can dish about… …Totally agree with the WGA writer’s strike. Go writers! …I’m going to miss Big Bang Theory, Chuck,…
