i will have to check that out, your enthusiasm being the top reason. :)

I will check them out. Thank you.

I decided to eat as many meals meat-free as I can this year. I've done well so far. Anyone out there have any recommendations for cookbooks? I have Ottolenghi's "Plenty" and Martha Stewart's "Meat Free," but I'm sorta wondering where the Jezebel vegetarians/vegans source their meal ideas from.

It's so nice you think she doesn't already have a felony conviction. Not snark at all. It's really kind that you're willing to give her the benefit of the doubt. I assumed she had already spent time in prison. I mean, if you're willing to slap Grandma over facebook, what aren't you capable of?

is that a still from Some Like It Hot? if so, all the applause.

It really is amazing how deeply intertwined scent and memory are. I can still remember the most glamorous young woman in my freshman dorm: she'd walk down the hallway, and I could smell her perfume in the air. It was "rapture" and it was sold at Victoria's Secret stores. She taught me how to tweeze my eyebrows.

I have to work, and my husband is away for work, so when I get home, I'll be getting shitfaced on the prosecco I bought and probably drunk dialling my mom to whine about how homesick I am.

I thought it was an advertisement. I'll go put on the tea and set us up for some bridge.

Ah, yes, the mighty little dog and their irresponsible owners... We deal with an unbelievably high number of them and the fallout from human ignorance. If you're looking for a cause, Standardize Military Pet Policy is a good one, and one in Louisiana right now where they're trying to outlaw pibbles and rotties because…

My friend runs a sustainable dog-jacket company called Muffinhead. It's named after her pibble, who she lovingly refers to as a muffinhead. She's located in Portland, OR, and I'm 90% sure they take internet orders. I have purchased a few of them, and they last really well. I gave them to my dad when I moved to…

That poor baby... :( Dingleberries confuse my rott. He thinks something is chasing him and he freaks out trying to see what it is. Its funnier than it should be, until i have to take care of it. :/

I cant get anywhere near either of my dogs with clippers, and no groomer in the area will clip them for me, so we walk exclusively in either sand or on pavement. I love my rott and my shepherd, but man... people are so touchy about them due to their breeds' PR

I won't lie: this assuages my guilt a bit. They'll be getting scrambled eggs in the morning, too.

What about Jessica, as in Jessica Rabbit? She has a classic name, and it doesnt sound particularly porny.

I forgot to pick up kibble, and now I have to make boiled rice and chicken. I am a bad dog mom. I have guilt issues.

Mine is a trifecta: religion, conservative political beliefs, and skinny jeans. NO. Thankfully I have found a liberal atheist who thinks skinny jeans are akin to wearing a tourniquet on his person.

Krieger's vanispheres! Some times the most random part of a random cartoon.

It is 62 F here in the florida keys. it is also not the first day ive worn jeans, long sleeves, and a coat + beanie to work on the boats.

Elevator eyes? Are they looking up at you because they're super short? (If so, embrace it and tower over them. I <3 being 6' tall!)

Braids or a ponytail. Always topped with a hat. Easy peasy.
