Long time no talkie

16 Dec

Well, it’s been a long time since I have written anything…feeling like it’s time to start again!

Ive moved to Oklahoma and back to California 3 times now, been married, divorced, and am now prepping to be a single mom…all in a matter of 4 years.

When I say it all out loud it just sounds…crazy. Well, I guess because it is!

Fresh start to the blog and to life; my life…and the little life growing inside of me (due date March 23, 2012).

Expect many more rants, healthy recipes, and sightless babble in the next few months as my pregnancy hormones rage on.

My Vice: Ice Cream

26 Aug

Ice Cream. It seriously brings me joy. I could eat it every night, literally, and NEVER get sick of it.

I come from a line of ice cream lovers. My grandpa loves it. My dad can eat a half a gallon in one sitting… and he does (but he only likes Vanilla – just plain with nothing on it…but MAN does he like it). I think my ice cream obsession was just in me from the start. The one advantage we all have going for us is that we are tall and noodle-like. Otherwise we would all weigh a good 30 pounds more than we do. As long as I can remember my family has been having ice cream for dessert, and as long as I live there will be ice cream in my freezer ready and waiting at a moments notice. My husband thinks it’s my grand scheme to make him fat so that no other woman will want him. I play along with this and get a HUGE bowl for the both of us some evenings and make jokes about him getting fat as he shovels some into his mouth…but we both really know that the ice cream is for me.

I mean what’s not to love?! There are so many different choices! Cookies and chocolate chunks, mint and fruits, candy and nuts, creamy and tart, yogurt-y and gelato-y…. the possibilities really are endless. Now would I call it a vice?? Not by the word’s true definition…. but its definitely a habit of sorts. Some say that I could live off of ice cream alone…. I am tempted to test this theory. In my fridge right now? Breyers Rocky Road (my favorite of all store bought ice cream brands). My favorite ice cream? I could never have just one.

I know it’s only 9 am but… maybe I will have a bowl now?

The No-Fail Way to Make Me Roll My Eyes

30 Jul

Hope – Obama (Shepard Fairey poster)

Obama on The View DEFINITELY makes me roll my eyes. Roll them so hard that they are almost invisible. So hard I am looking at the back of my skull. I mean seriously, don’t you have better things to do than hang out with Joy Behar??

Comfy Comfy Comfort Food

28 Jul

My favorite comfort food is Corn Casserole… Paula Dean’s recipe to be exact. My mom started making it some years back for Thanksgiving. We all fell in love with it so much that we eat it year round now. I mean what better comfort food is there than something that has a whole stick of butter and an entire container of sour cream wrapped inside? That’s right. There is none. Seriously people, look that recipe up on FoodNetwork’s website. It will change your life.
