Whelp, I’m wiped. Our Saturday got started relatively early. We had to get up for a seven o’clock Hoosier tip off! Indiana ran circles around Minnesota while the #1 ranked Duke lost to #20, NC State. Wahoo! During halftime, we took Charlie boy back to the beach for a morning swim. He is the best … Continue reading

full friday
Today was full day which ended with full plate of meaty pasta. I don’t know about you, but I find it a touch irritating that when you need to buy herbs at the grocery, you have to buy them in enormous bouquets. I usually need a sprig or two, and I come home with a … Continue reading
i love …
… kabocha squash. I went to the store looking for a spaghetti squash to test an imagined recipe, but I’m learning that the commisary on post doesn’t restock as often as I get hairbrained cooking impulses. A vacant spaghetti squash crate wasn’t going to ruin my day though. I grabbed a kabocha squash (Japanese pumpkin) … Continue reading
miles and piles
Yesterday Daniel and I didn’t mind waking up at 4am if it meant moving out of the drab apartment hotel for good! We made the 30 minute, trafficless commute to catch a pre-sun run on the trail by our new place. It was so dark that I even got to wear a reflecting belt. 🙂 … Continue reading
bye-bye temporary lodging
The internet resurfaced momentarily so I’ve seized the opportunity to share an update on the last couple days AND experiment with some different picture gallery frames. Thoughts? I think the tiled format is pretty cool, only I can’t figure out why they are MASSIVE if you’re on a computer. Hopefully I’ll figure out how to … Continue reading
chicken or the egg?
Today, the egg came first. This morning began with my rendition of McDonalds’s bacon, egg, and cheese McMuffin. Ever wonder how they get those little egg squares? I wonder too. I do it with the microwave. Thanks, mom (: The first time I made this sandwhich for Daniel he asked how many eggs I used, … Continue reading
i stand corrected
My mom and sister took serious beef with me talking about how I remember none of us really liking black-eyed peas. Some people develop allergies when they grow up, I guess my brother and sister developed a palate for peas; apparently the whole family had multiple helpings yesterday. All I can say is I hope … Continue reading
lucky new year
If you have ever lived in the south, you’re probably accustomed to the tradition of eating black-eyed peas on either New Year’s Eve or New Year’s Day for good luck. I can’t recall a New Year that my mom didn’t pop open a can of the black-eyed peas (which are technically beans); even though none … Continue reading
eerie eve
Happy New Year! Do you make a New Year’s Resolution every year? If so, what is it for 2013? Daniel informed me that his resolution is to buy an “island Jeep.” Specifically, a Jeep Wrangler. To this end, in lieu of a fancy New Years night on the town, we went on an eerie excursion … Continue reading
sunday, done day
This morning, Daniel and I woke to the sound of dog barking. Hey, whoever you are in room 210, could you kindly muzzle your pooch? Anyway, awake with coffee in hand, we activated our wifi hotspots to do some morning craigslist car shopping. Looks like Charlie-boy found an hotspot of his own. Before I go … Continue reading
