Pseudo-secret: I’m amazed by Sarah Palin’s hair. It’s..so big and lustrous. Like a golden retriever.

I’m craving Lucky Charms. But there are none here. I should ask my American friends to send them to me.  There’s irony to be had somewhere in that.

FOX online poll of the day: Will Ending DADT... →
lgbtlaughs: stfuconservatives: No. Skew their numbers, people! —THF While it’s probably correct that 60%ish of people who rely on Fox news think the gays are going to make the military fall apart (you know, like what happened here in Britain ten years ago when they allowed open service, amirite?), it’s a whole lot of fun to mess with Fox news folk’s heads. Go vote no.

A major pet peeve of mine? Lack of attention to details in the realm of baking & other precise analytical works. I’m furious at myself for, for the sake of not looking like a stickler and to ease a stressed sweetheart who thought it’d be fine, I bought what I was quite sure to be the wrong kind of chocolate for a brownie recipe (dubiously labeled “Chocolate for Baking - Milk...

Also, I made some candied orange peels. Really easy. You literally just need oranges (or grapefruit, your call), sugar, and water. http://www.williams-sonoma.com/recipe/candied-grapefruit-peel.html

I think more than “Happy Holidays” or “Holiday [parade, event, party, etc.],” the most unassuming, politico-correcto saying would be, “Season’s Greetings” - it’s not even assuming you celebrate a holiday! I don’t know! Nice Winter though, isn’t it? I’m waiting for when we just have Season Parades and Season Parties. Mainly just to...

On my Yelp profile, in which I profess my love for the lovely Oxford comma, a stranger posted a comment remarking, “For all your supposed love of oxford commas, I failed to see a single one on your profile.” I bristled, then noticed that I had written in my profile that I can be found in “cafes, bookstores, and parks.” I replied, simply stating the location of my Oxford...

Yelp!
