1. Well, it looks like I got my wish: Tuesday and Wednesday were “snow days” and work was cancelled. Since there was another hard freeze Wednesday night and ice is still pretty thick, we’re also closed today. The poor hubby has to go in at 11:00, though. (Edit: I *may* have to go into work…

Tropical Pineapple and Coconut Chia Pudding
It’s the middle of winter, and it’s cold. I know this. I know this because, for the second time in less than a week, the local weather forecast predicts a wintry mix of sleet, ice, and snow. What I like to call snizzle. Here on the Gulf Coast, we just don’t get snow. In March…
Weekly Links #4
Hello, hello! And happy Sunday to you. I hope everybody is having a lovely weekend. Ours has been quite nice. Instead of watching the Senior Bowl, we decided against fighting for a parking space near the stadium and had some lunch at Lap’s, acted like tourists by visiting the USS Alabama battleship, and did a…
Thinking Out Loud #6
1. Truth: I never know how to begin these Thinking Out Loud posts. I’m a crazy, random person anyway, but I feel like too much randomness straight out of the gate might scare you from reading! 2. Speaking of scaring people, apparently I need to work on my “resting bitch-face syndrome” and approachability. A week…
WIAW: Obligation
Hello there! I’m sooooo glad it’s Wednesday. Both Monday and Tuesday—and part of today—were a bit frustrating for me, so I’m more than welcomed to reach the giant hump in the middle of the week. It’s all smooth sailing from here (I hope!). Even after snapping shots of my meals yesterday, I’d decided against posting…
Weekly Links #3
Hello there! I hope everybody has been having a lovely weekend. Ours was quite nice: we tried a new pizza place Friday night, saw August: Osage County (so, so good; the dialogue and acting were incredible) and had dinner with my parents on Saturday, and are going to grocery shop and relax today. And now…
Thinking Out Loud #5
1. Is it too late to start thinking about my birthday plans? Mark just bought us tickets to see Bill Maher (on Feb 8th, 2 days before the big day)—and I’m contemplating where I want to eat dinner. The Bull is one of my favorites and worth revisiting, but with La Pizzeria re-opening a few…
WIAW + Shredded Kale, Brussels Sprouts, Pomegranate, Pistachio, and Walnut Salad
Happy Wednesday, my dears! Today is monumental because I’m actually posting a recipe for you guys. It’s the first recipe of the year—and also the first since mid-November. I’m ashamed. 🙁 My shame aside, do you remember that salad I talked about at Thanksgiving? Well, I discovered a few (bad) photos on my camera, and…
Weekly Links #2
Happy Monday! Clearly I have commitment issues since I’m posting the 2nd installment of Weekly Links on Monday instead of the weekend. I guess it’s not much of a series if I do it once and miss the next one, huh? Truthfully, I’m not sorry. Yesterday the sun was shining—and I’m glad I enjoyed a…
Bikram Goals for 2014
We’re probably past the threshold for “My Goals in 2014…” posts, but that’s just too bad for you, dear readers. Although I didn’t share any specific resolutions at the beginning of the month, I thought it might be healthy and fun to set a few goals for Bikram. Let me just say that I realize…
