The Art Of Running In The Rain
When I first started running this year, I was still under the impression that people didn’t run in the rain. There were the occasional crazies, but that most runners just avoided it. Who would want to run in the rain? You get WET. Bah. But as my training went on for my half-marathon, I realized that there are nights you “have” to run and if there’s no danger (lightning, etc) then you just “have” to get out. And man, my first run in the rain?... Read More
Finally! Just A Solid, Fun, Good Episode ‘Glee’
SPOILER ALERT! SPOILER ALERT! ALSO – BAD SPORTS ANALOGIES AHEAD! THEY’RE JUST AS BAD AS SPOILERS! To me, if I look at it without my Unabashed Gleek bias, ‘Glee’ seems to either hit the ball out of the park, or strike out every episode. There are no…ummm…crap.

But there are movies in 2012 that I’ve actually got marked on my CALENDAR – or I will as soon as the release dates are announced. That’s how excited I am. The first, of course, is Snow White And The Huntsman (JUNE) which has a KILLER TRAILER seen here but I’m unable to... Read More
Still A Newbie In The Kitchen
We had Donnie’s birthday dinner this week and I wanted to make him a real cake instead of one from a box. I’ve never made a birthday cake from scratch before and I found the “perfect” recipe on pinterest. It seemed rich and it was made with strong coffee. PERFECT for Donnie. And as you can see by this lovely picture I took? It turned out BEAUTIFULLY. I posted this photo on Facebook with some sort of bitter snarky comment about how OBVIOUSLY something went... Read More
