This post just gave me diabetes.

I love Cadbury Creme Eggs. No, I luuuuuurve them. I have to admit, though, I’m glad they’re only available for a limited time every year because they are so tooth-achingly sweet and sugary, that it’s way too easy to go overboard on them. This recipe is *way* overboard – but ohmygod I have to admit [...]

Apparently, it’s Guinness Week at Serious Eats and I approve. If you know me, you know I So, needless to say, I was very happy to see that it’s Guinness Week at Serious Eats – my favorite food blog. This recipe for “Beeramisu” looks incredible. Take my favorite beer and my favorite dessert and combine [...]

Animals Automated Cameras = Awesome.

I have to admit that I almost went for the Charlie Sheen reference and put “Animals + Automated Cameras = Winning” but I refrained. These pics are really fascinating – as the author of the Gizmodo post says, “…what animals are up to when they’re not being weirded out by humans (just weirded out by [...]

Spiders are Evil. Here's more proof.

Seriously, if you know me, you know that I’m *terrified* of spiders. Right now, as I type this, I’m staring at that horrific, horrific spider picture freaking the F out and imagining that I have something crawling on me (OMG). Is that not the ugliest evilist looking thing ever? It is. Apparently, Mazda is issuing [...]

Amazon Instant Video now avail free to Prime Members. Yay for another source of entertainment for cable cutters!

If you are already an Amazon Prime subscriber, you now have access to free (well, included in your subscription) “all-you-can-eat” movie streaming. It looks like a lot of overlap with what’s available on Netflix Instant Streaming, but I did see a couple of movies right on the first page of Prime Eligible movies that aren’t [...]

I’ve had my fair share of suckiness happen to me over the last year and, on top of that, I tend to be more of an anxious person – a worrier who spins herself out of control when she feels she has no control over something. So, because of all that, I’ve done *more* than [...]

The last two times Alex has worked at the firehouse, he’s texted me requesting cookies. I’m pretty much always happy to make cookies because (as I’ve mentioned) I make damn good cookies and because I like to try new recipes and because I really Patty suggested that I make extra dough and freeze it so [...]
