Today's Meals
I’m pretty much obsessed with food (to the point I even have a poorly updated food blog, Fancy Foodie on the Fly, featuring a vegan locavore in Cincinnati trying to feed myself at home and around town). I love talking food, watching food, eating food. Today, I’m excited for my food - all of which is made by me - not preprocessed or package.
Breakfast: Savory cinnamon pumpkin spice...

Bad Books
KDev and MO on top of Britney. Too. Many. Puns.
“Every thought a thought of You
No more thought I ought to do
When there is thing we see or touch we trust it’s true
Every thought a thought of You Every look in search of You
No need for books when we’re with you
Wear a thin disguise oh like within my brother’s eyes
Every look in search of You”

Carrot Cake
I.
I’ve been flirting with vegan for months
making meal time impossible.
Too much effort to count.
Michael & I have fought.
But we’ve compromised.
And made it through.
II.
I have a lot of food allergies,
making vegan harder.
Birthday cakes with
no milk or eggs or dairy or animal or coconut oil or high-dose nutmeg
are hard to come by.
Even harder to find...

Politics
Sometimes I hate how narrow-minded we are as a culture (okay, well more than sometimes but you know…). If you think Obama is doing a decent job, you must just think that because of the color of his skin. If you think he is doing a poor job, you must be a teabagger. No middle ground. Barring Hoover and a handful of other presidents, Obama came into office at the toughest time in recent...

What Advice Would You Give To Your 18-Year Old...
There was a Lifehacker article a little while back asking the following question:
“What Advice Would You Give To Your 18-Year Old Self?”
And I’ve been thinking about this for a good amount of time. I’d primarily probably tell myself to not make enemies. My sophomore/junior year of college, I made a lot of enemies in two batches:...
"Organic People" Make Me Giggle
The Indianapolis Zoo now serves veggie burgers. Kudos to them - that’s actually a great step. However, one of the women making a comment about that made me laugh. It was something along the lines of ‘oh, I’m sure the zoo uses organic meat so I’m safe.’ No, you twit…but thanks for the laugh.
Maybe it’s crude but people (I have many friends who do it too)...
The Blue Sweater Dress
[Forgive the crappy, 3.0 megapixel cameraphone pictures with dark light…]
I bought a sweater today. Well, I thought it was a gorgeous duster length sweater with a belt and ruffled neckline. I got to thinking about it more and it’s actually a sweater dress. While for most women that would ramp up the uses, I’m not most women and don’t do dresses oft. I’m torn on...
Top 10 Romantic Things A Guy Can Do When Living... →
This is all nice but I’m still of the camp that the most romantic thing in the world (living together or otherwise) is a mixtape, a nice dinner, some kind words and some snugging.
But I’m just a girl, you know.

Babies, Weddings and Kittens: Is Everyone Knocked...
Another one of my friends mentioned this morning that she was pregnant. Once the excitement for her passed, I got to thinking: is everyone knocked up? I spent a good portion of today with a baby. Cute, fawning and expressive, she was a treat. However, that’s not a treat that belongs in my life right now. Heck, that’s not a treat that can fit in my apartment. The one bedroom,...
