Is anyone else getting this on every post on their Facebook feed?

I know many people are against New Years resolutions, but I really like them. It’s somewhat arbitrary, but after the craziness of the holidays, it’s kind of nice to put some thought to doing a reset.

Usually when people play the time machine game, everyone ends up trying to avert disaster of some sort. I propose a different twist on the game: The View-Only time machine. The rules:

I’m not a super-fan when it comes to Christmas. Shopping annoys me (every year, the list gets whittled down more and more), I hate wrapping, the tree is fine but it’s annoying to get it up and down, and I do the bare minimum when it comes to decorating. The one thing I go balls to the wall on: COOKIES.

So, I don’t mind Halloween. I like giving out candy. I like seeing kids in costumes. I like watching my own kids go through their haul. I like Halloween candy.

I’m…

Let me just say that the kids were SUPER fucking thrilled to be woken up before 10 by me presenting them with to-do lists.

I do coding videos, and today I did a silly blog about how coding is like knitting. I wanted to share, because I’m weirdly proud of it!

So, this came up towards the end of therapy today, and it’s been rattling in my head all day. Buckle up for a rant, y’all.

I have two picky eaters and a spouse who strongly dislikes a few things that I dearly love. This is me at least once a month.

Hello, everyone! What’s everyone cooking this week? Is there a recipe you’re hunting for, or that you just want to share because it’s awesome?

The weather is truly heating up around here, and our kitchen is situated in such a way that an oven can heat up the whole damn house in just thirty minutes.
