There's an article in this month's print Bon Appetit (don't judge me! subscription gift from mom...) about this very same topic. Apparently a restaurant in LA (because of course) called "Sqirl" has made burnt brioche toast with ricotta and homemade jams a thing, as well as other toast options. Bon Appetit claims…

I feel like 1990 me would have worn the shit out of this dress to the clubs. Or the mall. Or around the house.

"Bedazzled clove of garlic."

Ima leave this here.

Agreed. In my personal experience, this type of ceremony is more for the parents than the kids, anyway. The parents, like some of my friends and colleagues, are the ones posting a gazillion Facebook pics of ceremonies like pre-school graduation, kindergarten graduation, etc. The kids, I'd bet, are amused for about two…

Since numbered sizes are all over the place in terms of fit, I actually like the S/M/L system for some things (not jeans or dress pants, but shirts and leggings and skirts). I have the apple-shape, where any extra weight tends to stick in my middle, not hips or legs. I know I can be an L top (also because boobs), but…

Seconded. I liked it better 'round these parts when body-snark was discouraged.

Russell Stover sugar-free is so good. DAMMIT, RUSSELL. I CAN'T QUIT YOU.

But you'd do it again, right? Because I don't want to be alone in my stupidtimes.

How could you even be upset being ousted by an adorables sea lion? Clearly, that sea lion is the boss of the bench. If that had happened in a prison yard, dude would be owned by the sea lion.

It's like when my cat hogs the bed and I just curl around him because the cat has gone limp like an Occupy Portland protester…

For reals. Only amateurs pig out on anything with maltitol and their ilk. These sugar-free gummi bear comments are legit warnings: you dance with sugar alcohols, you're gonna pay. Take it from someone who has eaten a handful of sugar-free Reese's peanut butter cups and lived to tell the tale. I'D DO IT AGAIN, THO.…

I love blueberry too, but I also discovered huckleberries. To me, they taste like more intense blueberries and they are AMAZING. If you like blueberries, try huckleberries if you can get them where you live.

I have a peach pie in the oven right now. She is the Khaleesi of Summer Pies, Breaker of Lesser Pies, Mother of Tarts.

Her look of wonder is delightful to see. Say what you want about that specific company or line of dolls/products, but seeing kids really in awe of any toy display is CUTE.

For price comparison, I believe the overnight camp I went to in 1980 was $300/week...and that was considered reaaaaaaaaally expensive. My family were NOT wealthy (mom was a social worker and dad an insurance salesman), but I think they wanted me to try something out of my comfort zone.

I think JHud could play a young Aretha, and I vote for Ruby Dee (although she doesn't resemble her physically a great deal, I think she could have fun with the role...) as mature Aretha.

Ooops! Yes, you're right. Thanks!

Can we all agree to keep Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler separated? I'm sure their movies have collectively made gobs of money, but I do not get his appeal. I feel like Drew can do so much better in a romcom partner. Granted, I'm not a romcommy person, in general. How about she does one of these pics opposite Joseph…

I like this! Beautiful spring color and pretty cut, too. I wonder how that pattern on the cloth looks up close and in person?
