There's a mouse in my car!!! WTF!?!?!? I haven't actually seen the mouse, but I can hear it and it's terrifying. A few months ago I was driving my daughter to school because the bus never came. As we were getting on the practice freeway (35E for those of you who aren't from the Twin Cities, but for those of you coming here for the
I can't believe I made this - pizza and wine! And by 'made this', I mean I made everything in this image by myself and from scratch. I made the wine and I made the pizza. I made the dough - I let it rise, punched it down and shaped it into pizza crust. I made the sauce, from tomatoes I canned last summer and
*Update - Since no one even guessed, and there is no way anyone could have guessed the outcome of the Saints vs Vikings game, we're gonna do it again.... Just for shits and giggles I'm doing a Vikings Playoff Giveaway. If you can predict, guess or speculate the score of next Sunday's game against the Eagles, you will win some cool Vikings memorabilia. I'm not
Rock-a-bye baby, on the treetop, When the wind blows, the cradle will rock, When the bough breaks, the cradle will fall, And down will come baby, cradle and all. Rock-a-bye baby, on the treetop Who the hell puts their baby, along with the cradle, in a fucking tree? They don't. It's a metaphor. For mother (or father, primary caregiver - just so I don't offend anyone reading this who isn't
Happy New Year! This year I'm starting off with an Instant Pot ham a wild rice soup recipe. I make all kinds of soups during the holidays. Usually because there are so many leftovers from the holiday meals, but also because it's so damn cold. Currently it's about -14°. That's Minnesota, and that's why we make things like Tater Tot Hot Dish. It's also probably
2018 is going to be the year when I ask myself - often - I Wonder What Would Happen If I.....? Like most everyone I make New Year's Resolutions. Also, like most everyone, I usually forget about them by the second week of the year. Usually my resolutions are about losing weight, finding love and improving my finances. And, to my credit, I made considerable strides
Unless you're living under a rock, you've seen the hastag #MeToo all over social media. Legend has it Alyssa Milano started the trend on Twitter (though it appears she got the idea from a friend of a friend on Facebook so it would seem someone else who isn't a celebrity actually started the trend...). The idea was that if all women/(people) respond to her tweet
Did you know you make wine at home? And for a fraction of the cost of the box wine you've been choking down? I've been sitting on this information for several months now. I've meant to share it with you, but damn it's been a busy summer. I started making wine this summer and it's some of the most fun I've had in a long
It's Prime Day, that's just like Christmas in July, or Hanukkah, or Kwanzaa or having your birthday in July if you normally don't have a birthday in July. Prime Day is an awesome way to get amazing deals on all the things you want. Amazon offers huge discounts on all the cool stuff, the kinky stuff, the toys we want for our pets, and on
Between all the many terrorist attacks, stupid things President Trump tweets or what stupid thing a washed up celebrity has said, I just can't muster anymore outrage. I want to be upset, I do. I mean the fact that Kathy Griffin hired an attorney because she believes the Trumps are going after her and dooming her career - because she hired a photographer to take
