I've lost that blogging feeling

Can't seem to write anything interesting or even bitchy lately. What up with that?

A word of advice for the Youth of Today

Hosiery is an important element of fashion. Its role is to enhance an outfit or "finish" a look. Here is a simple rule of thumb: you needn't wear hosiery with every outfit but wearing nylons requires that you are, in the very least, wearing a dress or skirt.

Just to review,

Black tights do not equal pants. Put some fucking clothes on.

The Colour of Migraine

I recently misread the following sentence "her hair was the colour of margarine" as "her hair was the colour of migraine".

Which promoted me to ask, what would the colour of a migraine be?

Answer: steely gray.

See you then and there!

I'm meeting a friend today for lunch and and another for coffee. I know this because it is written in my agenda. I saw my plan for Tuesday May 5th staring up at me this morning: Ellie - 12pm Lobby; Hartley - 4pm Aroma.

I like thinking that my friends have an also written our meeting in their agendas. Or maybe they have just jotted it down on a post-it and stuck to their fridge. It doesn't matter where it is, I just like thinking that I am written down as part of someone else's plan for the day.

It's nice to know someone has scheduled me into their life.

Step Two: Set Small, Attainable Goals

Alright, in my on-going attempts to increase interest on my blog, I have come to the realization that I need to start writing more. Unfortunately, the daily posting approach is not one that works for me.

I need a goal that has an end point - the daily posting was proving to be an endless chore (much like cleaning) that never, never ends.

I noticed last year I wrote 62 posts (one less than the year before). Enter the new goal for Blog! Improvement! 2009! I will attempt to double that number. So, I need to write 104 by December 31. That is totally doable friends!

Everything in moderation...

After having a dream in which I was cooking stove top Macaroni and Cheese with Giada De Laurentiis, I am cutting back my food blog / foodtv consumption for awhile.

In a related note, I am also once again disappointed in my subconscious. Giada De Laurentiis, what the fuck????

Guilty Pleasure

Now that I am officially finished my classes for the term, I spend much of my day becoming addicted to this online meal planner from Springpad. The best feature is the online recipe book. You can directly input online recipes using the URL into your recipe book. So handy!!

N.B. This might seem like an odd hobby, but remember I am an octogenarian trapped inside a 27 year old body.
