OK, we are grilling the pork loin tonight, not tomorrow because I am having short term memory issues (I could bore you with a story about my glasses that I thought were lost, but I’ll refrain) and because I clearly didn’t recall details about tomorrow’s agreed upon menu. No matter. Pork tonight will be tasty [...]

Since June we have hosted a “True Blood Sunday” dinner at our house, where fans of the HBO series can gather, eat, talk and then watch the weekly episode. Tomorrow’s dinner will include a charcoal-grilled pork loin, fresh made boule, grilled asparagus and potatoes, and a seven-layer cookie and dark chocolate cupcakes with vanilla bean [...]
A wee little BlogHer moment

I will get around to posting all the wonderful things I want to write about BlogHer. I promise. But one of the highlights of my week had nothing directly to do with the conference. It was an incident in Starbucks on the last morning, hours before I left. I just get such a perverse kick [...]
Boners in my back yard

I really am going to write posts about BlogHer. Really. Cause I loved it hardcore and I really want to get all my thoughts together and blah, blah, blah… What I really want to write about now is the hundreds of penises (penii?) that popped up magically in my back yard last night. No shit. [...]

There are so many I hardly know where to start. It’s been a week since I came home from BlogHer 10, which was a totally amazing experience, and I have drafted several blog entries and have not published a single one. By the time I get around to posting with all the appropriate links, BlogHer [...]

If you’ve been struggling with weight your entire life like I have, then there are a few books I can recommend that can help get perspective on that lifetime struggle, ways to deal with it and ways to make peace with it. First, two memoirs by women with interesting perspectives on weight loss that are [...]
Tumblr totally counts, right?

No entry on this blog yesterday. Traveling to BlogHer10, there was no wifi on the train. Once I got to the hotel, there was too much activity to sit down and write. But I did blog twice over on tumblr from the train, because thank-ye-bebe-jeebus my 3G connection on my CrackBerry worked almost everywhere but [...]

My blog entry will be very brief. This is a great day for civil rights and I am so happy for this huge step toward justice for all people.
Day three and I’m already running on E

I got nothing to say today. Nothing, nada, zilch. Had a shitacular day at work, ate really bad food, helped polish off a bottle of wine and now I have a headache. And why, oh why, would anyone want to read that? And what, oh what, does this have to do with being green? Uh, [...]
Room in the heart

I was adopted by my parents when I was a baby. I have never felt the need to find my biologicals because to me the physical act of procreation and giving birth does not really make you a parent. Parents are the people who clean up after you when you hurl, pretend that you are [...]
