I like these cookies (and happy winter solstice)

Internet users, I am 26 and a half and I know what I like. This is partially because I am now really fucking certain what I DON’T like. Thank you to those humans who have shown me what I don’t like. MUCH APPRECIATED, dudes.

But honestly. Here I am. Sliding my way towards 27. And I [...]

Everyone loves a ginger…bread cookie.

Except…I’m not the hugest fan. I say hugest because I do like them with some coffee if I’m feeling very….dark brown and spicy. And I do like  them when they’re more of a gingerSNAP. You know, thinner and with more crunch. But as a whole I’m just not totally fucking psyched out of my mind [...]

The thought that counts

So, do you want to hear how my diet is going? It involves days subsisting entirely on cookies and cupcakes. It involves cannolis. It involves binge drinking 3 weeknights in a row. Basically it involves me being the worst at being on a diet ever, and so, henceforth, diet is officially over. I would say [...]

Got ugly pears?

Hey guys. Think I’m crazy? Meet my sister. Older, wiser, yes. But also, forgive me sis, way more neurotic. Please enjoy this guest post by my sister in family name and in lunacy, Julia:
Sister’s friends, there is one important thing to know about me and food: I hate to waste it. I am not sure [...]

Pumpkin Pies, guys

I know, it’s after Thanksgiving. There is no reason for you to make pumpkin pie anymore. But….isn’t there? On account of it being delicious? And maybe you have some leftover pumpkin that needs to be used? Yeah? (hi, also, forgive the shitty pictures, etc)

Ok, so, maybe not. But let’s pretend, because I didn’t actually make [...]

Cranberry cake and waistlines

Since you already know Too Much about me (i have an oversharing problem), I might as well let you know that I am HEREBY on a diet. I’m also going to let you know that I fucking hate diets with every bone in my body (i’m sure i am the only one who feels this [...]

The great egg sandwich exploration part I forget

It’s not that I haven’t been actively searching, friends. It’s not that I haven’t been eating egg sandwiches. I just haven’t been blogging about them. I had to tell you about this one, though. I feel like I’m getting closer and further away at the same time. Closer to something, further from another. Story of [...]

What can brown sugar do for you

Hello reader! I hope you had a great Thanksgiving. I myself doubled my Thanksgiving intake by spending the day with my sister and her boyfriend in Oakland, and then catching a red-eye Thanksgiving night to do day 2 at my parents’ house on Long Island. That’s right. A bi-coastal, double-dinner, 5xpie Thanksgiving. But that is [...]

Fitter, happier, more productive, and more pie

Attention Everyone. I have found my new favorite pie crust. So, throw away all your other recipes. Don’t listen to anyone else when they tell you they have the best pie crust. I have it. I found it. It’s mine now. Mine. And you’re going to benefit from it. You, if you’re near me, because [...]

Spice.

Friends, I’m awkward. It’s ok, it’s something I’ve come to terms with. In fact, there are times I embrace it and play it up. But there are other times I feel like, MUST I BE THIS WAY?? Must I pretend to not see someone walking past me on the street because I’ve been ignoring his [...]
