Thanks! Probably the real deal.

YES.

Is she still spreading her brainless fuckery around? I feel like I haven't heard much from her anti-vax/autism-wise in a while.

That is such a good idea! delicious and so much better for you than shortening.

A mural in your throat. Wow. What do you suppose he expected as a response to that?!?

Sooo, looking for some advice/wisdom/anecdotes....I am on the pill, this past cycle of pills was completely normal (didn't miss any, get sick, no additional meds that could have interfered, etc), I am supposed to start a new pack today, but my period simply didn't come. I took a pregnancy test, it was negative. I…

It really depends. In your case, it sounds like cheapness was just a symptom of his general selfishness. If someone is cheap because they are super responsible about saving vs spending, then that's a good trait (although sometimes no fun at all), but someone who guilts you about an $8 lunch when you've been booking…

Immersion blender! I use it for everything; sauce, soup, salad dressing, frozen drinks (don't judge), it is so easy to clean and easy to store.

Mmm, I love cornbread muffins.

Continuing to sext you when you aren't reciprocating is really pushy and obnoxious. Maybe he means well and is just really effing daft? But in my experience someone who is a pest in the beginning of a relationship only gets worse as time goes on. The first few months is when everyone is supposed to be on their best…

Noooooo! I hate when I do that.

I've been wanting to try to make posole for a while. Any tips?

As per usual, I want to know what people are cooking tonight. I am making chicken enchiladas in tomatillo/avocado sauce.

That's awesome! I really want/need to learn Spanish, as I live in Southern CA and feel like a loser not being able to.

Stiff drink + hot bath. It is the only way I would be able to resist the vicodin.

Wow, Disney shirts? Really? Any explanation (if one exists) would be enthusiastically welcomed.

Also, foodgawker.com is a good way to discover new blogs. I have been looking at strawberryplum.com all morning, and it is making me want to cook until I pass out.

userealbutter.com is really great

I have normal/dry skin, nothing horrible, but lately I have noticed it looking dull and tired, and my pores are clogging up. I am hoping to hydrate it a little better while keeping the blackheads and whatnot at bay.

Does anyone have a skin care regimen/product that they are happy with and would like to recommend? I am still treating my skin like I did when I was 18 and it is't really working for me anymore.
