withdrawal

I have a serious sweet tooth, and I'm more than a little cranky that all of the Nestle Toll House cookie dough got recalled due to...whatever. I didn't even pay attention. I could eat the chocolate chip cookie dough from Toll House for a week straight and be a happy camper. Infectious diseases be damned.

At any rate, my sweet tooth has been slightly pissy lately, what with the aforementioned lack of cookie dough (does that stuff ever even make it into the oven? Not in my kitchen), plus I was having serious writer's block/depression on Monday while trying to make my script Suck Less (I actually texted someone: "My script sucks monkey balls" and then just let them wonder), so I met up with a friend and we inhaled crepes at a crepery that opened up just across from my favorite movie theatre. Strawberries + banana slices + hot Nutella in a crepe = problem temporarily fixed.

But damn, I need my cookie dough soon or I'm gonna start to get all twitchy. Do you guys get like that too about specific foods? (Coffee and cigarettes don't count, too obvious.)

week in photographs

I don't usually photograph everything that happens in a week, but it was Memorial Day weekend and my best friend's baby shower, the camera was around anyways, and we're such visual creatures...

At any rate, posting photographs of the events seemed a better way to express my emotions over the past week than a blog that simply said:


I made chocolate covered strawberries for Memorial Day


My best friend (who just got her PHD in Archaeology, how hot is that?!) is expecting her first baby, a little girl










































The daffodil issue was resolved (for now) by purchasing some lovely fake ones from Michaels, but I'm looking forward to paper, leather, or felt flowers in my apple green vase soon, as several of you suggested (and even offered to help me make)






























wishing you the loveliest of weekends...full of laughter, friends, and surprises...

apparently my obsession with cheap dairy knows no bounds...

Here you go!

Happy Free Cone Day! Remember, it's only until 8 pm tonight, so get your butt down to your local Ben & Jerry's for that free ice cream cone SOON. Before you have to fight with an eight year old for the last scoop of Cherry Garcia.
