The New York Metropolitan Opera decided to digitally broadcast some of its performances this season in selected theaters around the country. Now I love opera, but I don’t get to go very often because the price for good seats is ridiculous and the view from the bad seats is worse than ridiculous, so $18.00 to see a [...]
“…be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves like locked rooms and like books that are written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, [...]
I don’t know that I’ll make a whole lot of food endorsements here (other than Nutella. Definitely purchase and consume lots of Nutella.) But this chocolate lava cake that we found at Trader Joe’s is phenomenal. I should have taken a picture of the box, but I figure the picture of the actual cake is [...]
I know it’s the middle of February, but I realized that I never posted pics on the boyfriend’s site of my annual Thanksgiving visit to my friend S and her husband, E, in San Luis Obispo. (Names changed to protect the innocent!) So I thought I’d do it here. The tradition started when her husband [...]
I took myself to see Notes on a Scandal last night. I love bargain Tuesday - even if the movie’s not so great, I’ve only spent $5.00. . . and a few hours of my life that I’m never getting back, but those are the risks we take!
I usually rate movies in my head by [...]
Well I feel like a lucky girl today! While I’m looking for a new full time job I’m doing some part time work at a friend’s shop nearby. It’s a green boutique, carrying only things that are environmentally conscious, whether it be organic or recycled material. If you’re in the Encinitas area, definitely check it out - [...]
It rained today! I know it seems silly to get so excited about moisture falling from the sky, but I love rainy days. Here in San Diego we get probably an average of four good rain days a year. It’s such a warm, cozy feeling, having the rain falling outside and being curled up on [...]
So I tried to make gnudi for the first time last night. Gnudi means naked in Italian and it’s basically spinach, parmesan, ricotta, salt, pepper, nutmeg, and eggs and flour to hold the mixture together in small patties while they cook in simmering hot water until they float. My high school english teacher would be [...]
Quite the muggy, oppressive weather here in San Diego today. October weather in February - very strange. I’m actually thinking of putting on my bathing suit and jumping in the pool here at our apartment complex. Then I think of all of the kids who live here and we all know what little kids do [...]
This is the last post from my myspace blog that I want to transfer over and then I’ll start writing in real time, I promise! I just really enjoyed this video - I laughed, I cried. And no, I’m not on medication!

I swear I don’t spend as much time on YouTube as my recent blog [...]
