1. What did you do in 2013 that you’d never done before? I ran away from home. Never tried that before. 2. Did you keep your new years’ resolutions, and will you make more for next year? My 2013 resolutions were to read better books from time to time, take more bubble baths, keep taking…

Dear Immune System…
Dear My Immune System: It’s December, so it’s time for me to make my annual reminder: There is no getting sick in December. There is altogether too much to do! (Sidebar: People of Earth! Can we please move Christmas to July for real? I get that you want to decorate your house, your car, your…
Thankful ’13

Summer 2013

Not Broken, Just Bent
Or, how I spent my summer vacation…more soon, I promise 🙂
And that’s a wrap
Actually, it was a turkey on wheat with bacon, but who’s counting. And with that, another Restaurant Week comes to a close. Thanks for being such a sport. Ahem.
