When I was a little girl someone gifted me a Star Wars Cookbook. I don't remember what the hell happened to it but I no longer had it as an adult. That was until a friend gifted it to my husband and I! I was unexpectedly excited to have another copy of it and I … Continue reading Review: Wookie Cookies and other Galactic Recipes

Review: The Unofficial Harry Potter Cookbook
I am a big fan of my local library. A few months ago I was looking at their new arrivals and saw The Unofficial Harry Potter Cookbook by Dinah Bucholz. I like Harry Potter. I like cooking. I placed the book on hold and impatiently waited for it to be ready for check out. Finally the day … Continue reading Review: The Unofficial Harry Potter Cookbook
Pouf! There it goes!
As I mentioned in my last post, I'm So Fickle, I created list of projects that I've started or planned to start. It helps keep me accountable and busy. If I'm busy trying to do the projects on this list, then I won't be adding to the damn thing. In theory anyway. The most recent project … Continue reading Pouf! There it goes!
An Alternative St. Patrick’s Day
If you're like me, then you don't like drinking holidays or anything that basically involves a large amount of drunk people in a central location. If you're also like me, then you're a light weight that gets tipsy with one drink and drunk as fuck after five. With St. Patrick's Day coming up you can … Continue reading An Alternative St. Patrick’s Day
Unexpected Goals are Bonus Points
Despite not taking part in resolutions or the "new year, new me" expression, I've written a post dedicated to such things at the start of each year since starting this blog. I didn't want to do the same "this is what I did, this is what I want to do" format so I started thinking … Continue reading Unexpected Goals are Bonus Points
I’ve Created a Monster: A Crafting Project
If you don't know by now that I'm a Harry Potter fan, then you do now. I also like to craft and am a fan of starting projects before finishing others. Last year I painted ornaments for two of my Christmas gifts. One set was Harry Potter themed and the other was Yoga poses. A … Continue reading I’ve Created a Monster: A Crafting Project
Of all the books, in all the libraries, on all the shelves, I had to read these.
One of my goals this year was to read more. Actually, it was to read 25 books. It's literally the only fucking goal that I've managed to accomplish and that's by the skin of my teeth. I started off strong but then didn't read anything for months until Fall. Then I decided I wanted to meet this goal and … Continue reading Of all the books, in all the libraries, on all the shelves, I had to read these.
The Wonderful World of Waffling (a review)
A few years ago we were shopping for a waffle iron for my mother-in-law. Along the way we ended up buying a waffle iron ourselves and I impulsively bought a cookbook to go along with it. The book in question? Will it Waffle? by Daniel Shumski. I was drawn in by the image on the cover and … Continue reading The Wonderful World of Waffling (a review)
Review: Thug Kitchen
Last year I gutted our cookbook collection of ones I haven't cracked open since college. We had no need to know how to make a jell-o mold or cook an entire meal using a microwave. Most of the books were from the 70's and 80's and were outdated. I resolved to keep our cookbook collection relevant … Continue reading Review: Thug Kitchen
New Year!
It's a new year which means it's time for a new me! Right? No. Fuck that. I think it's great that people take this opportunity to set resolutions for themselves but if you've read one of my first posts, then you know I don't like resolutions. I don't set them for myself. I make a … Continue reading New Year!
