Do Something Good

...For your body, that is! Thanksgiving is a mere two days away, and that means turkey, pie, mashed potatoes, gravy, so much food! And you know what comes just a month after Thanksgiving? Yes, that would be Christmas. And then it's New Years Eve (aka my birthday :) and then suddenly it's a new year and you feel fat, slobby and worthless.

The Best Potatoes Ever!

These are some of the greatest potatoes I've ever had! I've made them two years in a row for our office pot luck Thanksgiving and they've been a hit both times. They're so easy; try them out!

Honestly, I have no idea what to call them. Creamy diced potatoes? Cheesy diced potatoes? I don't know! Make up your own name!

Pumpkin Spice Cake Cookies!

I love the holidays! I truly, truly do. :) While I am in a constant state of frenzy due to school, impending graduation and possible unemployment, I only need to remind myself that Thanksgiving is a mere two and a half weeks away. *Sigh* I can breathe easy once again.


There's something about the holidays that makes me want to cook, even though I am no good! Honestly though, I am really looking forward to this year's office Thanksgiving so I can make my mom's awesome potatoes and these wonderful cookies I tried out last night.

The Opposite of Domesticity

According to a number of online thesauruses, domesticity doesn't have an antonym. If it did though, that word could be used to describe me. Let me tell you a story.


I will never be a good wife if I keep baking cakes that look like this.

The Hair = The Money Maker

Lately, my hair has been in a bit of a funk. Frizzy... Unmanageable... Blah. So, I decided to try something and see if it helped at all.

Placenta? Ewww......

All for the sake of beauty and research, I tried something I never thought I would... A Henna 'n' Placenta hair treatment.
