We managed not to get eaten by any bears! However this attack in Yellowstone (be it across the state, but in the same state) leaves you a bit unnerved.
Expect a post on Monday with tons of pictures of our vacation in Glacier National Park, Montana!

I hope to share a little more about our packing for Montana later in the day. I would have been more on the ball, but I’ve been distracted by my over 1k unread blog posts in Google Reader. How cute are these origami animals from Origami Roman? I’m in awe! I love paper bears, but [...]

It was amazing. Apples and pineapple people, do it now!

Our Montana Trip is finally here! A few days and a 24-hour road trip is all that is standing between us and Glacier National Park in northern Montana. I’ve got ten different lists going and tons of stuff to do before we leave (including my final project for class, due two days after we return) [...]

The Cheese Shop Sketch, Monty Python. Seemed rather appropriate for today!

Whenever we go for Mexican, I always order chimichangas. I think its partly because I love the way the word sounds and mostly because I love the way the tortillas bake. A good chimichanga won’t crack apart, but will still be soft. We had fun making these and short of the sour cream you see [...]

So Neil and my Dad share the same birthday. Too much awesome for one day? Possibly. Neil is turning 29 and my dad is turning 62. They are so similar that it seems almost too perfect that they also share the same birthday. For one, they are the funniest people you will ever meet. Both [...]

I have an unwritten rule about cookbooks. I don’t buy them if there are no pictures. It may seem childish, but I typically like to see what I’m cooking, mostly to know if I myself am failing the recipe. Few chefs get a pass at this rule. Alice Waters is one of them. If you’re [...]

I love easy baking on the weeknights. Something sweet and easy that doesn’t have umpteen-million ingredients or processes. I had two tangelos in my refrigerator that I’ve been meaning to do something with for weeks and finally thought some chocolate and orange muffins would be amazing. Neil was out mowing the lawn and I thought [...]

Neil and I started watching a pretty fantastical documentary last night called “Runnin’ Down A Dream,” the story of  Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers by Peter Bogdanovich. He’s that all-time eccentric but very talented guy who also made The Last Picture Show, which I also recommend (it was Jeff Bridges first movie).
This band is beyond [...]
