Yeah, the saffron bit had me confused. It has long been a part of other diets. 

One thing to add to #1 is please don’t harass your relative to cover the legal paperwork when they are a criminal prosecutor in another state, especially not for free. Also, get someone with experience in corporate formation and business law. Not the guy down the corner who helped you with a speeding ticket. Running a…

Yup! I’d considered catering because you know how much to get and when, but the hustle for clients and making 200 of whatever at a time sounds dreadful. Now I have kids and I don’t want to be out working every night anyways. 

Reading that book as a food/cooking obsessed teenager kept me from running off to culinary school and I am so grateful for it. I worked in a fairly functional restaurant, run by a very experienced chef and backed by a very experienced food-business owner. What I never saw there was that the chef lived in a studio that…

I’d like to take this moment to call out a great pumping spot in NYC that requires no $. Grand Central. Yup. Go to the Station Master’s Office (relatively easy to find), show them your pumping gear, and they’ll take you to a clean, locked room that has what you need. This includes a mirror at the right height to make…

The sonata is a closed system, so as long as you’re plugging in your own flanges, there’s not much to clean. 

So, close but not quite! Backwards black baseball cap and a patchy goatee. I’m guessing he is still a huge Limp Bizkit fan.

I wouldn’t trust him to tell the truth about what he ate for breakfast. Here’s hoping that he’ll be disqualified as a witness in pre-trial motions. I’m sure he’d still show up to stir some shit around but give him a smaller stage. 

Wow. Totally unrelated but I’ve never seen a picture of Mickey Rourke back in the day. I totally get it now. But not William Hurt. My mom always had a thing for him I will never understand.

Turn these into a rubber sole slip-on (eg Vans) and they can have my $90. 

Frangelico.

Yeah. Tay-Sachs was an interesting choice. I can’t tell you about French Canadians, but Ashkenazi Jews (the other major carrier group) are pretty well-organized around it. Free testing (along with other typical carrier issues like Gaucher) and funding for fertility treatments and adoption.

It appears that Mr. Auberjonois had metastatic lung cancer and just died. I withdraw my objection to Stamos.

Never again. That’s for damn sure. 

Aside from the fact that kids usually aren’t allowed in fertility clinics as covered below, that Jennifer Huang twit and her people should be afraid of those of us actually getting infertility treatment. 1) We will ask them if they have actually lost their minds in doing this because maybe they might want it in the…

My clinic had very strong rules against it and posted them very visibly. With the 5 million visits you end up having to do to any fertility treatments, this can make secondary infertility even harder but still. There were also no babies up on the walls. Abstract stuff and serene landscapes only. It was the one place I…

This one is just funny, not awful. I might have shared it before.

I had a shitty time getting up to my inlaws while heavily pregnant last year, but no pre-eclampsia. Instead, we arrived to an awful air mattress that we needed to inflate and deflate daily in case my father in law felt like using his study while we were there (his office was 0.5 mi away). My husband’s siblings arrived…

Ah ha... you said death first!

So do the Germans: treppenwitz.
