Red, White, and…nope, that’s it….

Well I definitely got a variety of questions that is for sure but we will start with this one: “When blogging, have you ever put something there that you later regret? You seem so forward which makes you awesome to read but do the people in your life feel the same?” No. I have no regrets. I am who I am. And if you really go through and read my blog no one is mentioned by name other than me. Even my pets, which sadly answers the question to the person who asked as to what is my dogs real name. Sorry, I don’t do any real names on here…pets included. People either get a nickname or just “someone I know”. I tell stories sometimes about my parents but nothing too bad. And though I have two brothers they are hardly mentioned on here, and my nieces and nephews are off limits. They didn’t put themselves off limits I did. Many of the stories that are told on here, the person is asked ahead of time if it’s okay. Interestingly enough most of my friends volunteer info … [Read more...]

Ask away…

So I get a lot of emails asking the same questions over and over again. So I thought maybe if you had a question you could ask it here in the comments and over the next week or so I will get to them. You can ask anything you want, though I reserve the right not to answer :P. You have between now and midnight tonight (PST) to ask away. … [Read more...]

Directions? What are those…

I would definitely say that I am more guy than girl. Oh sure I own frilly clothing from Anthropologie and I know how to bat my eyes while gently pressing my boobs together with my arms to get a free beer but overall I would have to say that I relate and tend to act more like a guy. I am after all a beer drinking hockey player. I would much rather watch sports than make a scrapbook (that incudes golf if those were my two options). I choose beer over wine. I think bacon can be a meal on its own. I do the t-shirt smell test and if it smells alright, then we are good to go. I have a mini fridge in my living room. There is clothing right now in a pile somewhere in the apartment, as well as a wet towel on the floor (don’t worry I will pick it up eventually). And I suck at following directions, of course until I get to the point of realizing I screwed up. :P Case in point these cookies. Yes, those are cookies, not cupcakes. I actually made them to prove a point publically and boy did … [Read more...]

Contain This: Floral Arrangements…

First off I want to say that who needs a traditional flower garden when you can have a Home Farm? Not only has having a Home Farm on my patio brought lush green to gaze upon (as well as all the salad greens I need), but many of those herbs and plants also produce flowers. Some of those flowers, like the one pictured above, are even edible as well. In fact, every flowering plant I chose for my Home Farm is edible. In case you are wondering what the lovely yellow flowers above are, they come from Arugula, also called rocket in the UK…my former neighbor is from Britain and she was more than excited to learn they were the same thing as she was wondering why there was no rocket here in the states. My particular flowers are yellow, but I am told they are often white. I’m happy to get the yellow as they add a pop to my lovely farm. Normally you want to remove the flowers but I am trying to promote bees to come on by since my strawberries don’t seem to want to produce any fruit and my … [Read more...]
