Autumn & Jerry

The Last Text My brother sent me the link to this video that shares the stories of several young people effected by texting & driving. Some are still alive, some are not. I know I am guilty of doing this sometimes, though I’ve really made an effort to stop. However, after watching this for ten [...]

Gotta love this site, even though I don’t live in an apartment – big houses still need creative decor and organizational tips! : – ) Though my Google Reader stays pretty full, I do my best to keep up with all the great blogs I follow, and this is one of them. While browsing this [...]

Personally, the holidays seem to fly by in a magic flash starting back at Halloween, but especially between Thanksgiving & Christmas! Before we know it, 2010 will be celebrating its finale and 2011 will be here. Every single year I say I’m going to slow down and try to enjoy every moment more than the [...]

Waking up to a cloudy, quiet morning after sleeping in is a good recipe for comfort. Checking my email and seeing an entire list of comfort food casseroles from MyRecipes.com waiting for me was a nice touch to an already lovely morning. With a few minor modifications, such as substituting veggie broth for the chicken [...]

Thanks to Jerry, who told me about this great site just in time for my dual class presentations today! Slide Share is a nifty little free service that lets you upload PowerPoint presentations online. You can make them public or private, tag them with information for organization, and have easy access to your uploads from [...]

I am currently obsessed with Solid Gold…and maybe a little in love. <3 I first found them on one of my fav MTV projects ever, You Rock the Deuce, and then last night on Subterranean, where I learned how to find & download this song – finally! iTunes, you disappoint. You should have all of [...]

Tuesday night marks the almost-middle of my busy week, it’s when I get home early from class and make a beeline for my PJs and then camp out on the couch in front of the fire (especially nice after such a cold & wet day!). Jerry often has an awesome dinner waiting for me, and [...]

Who knew that a package of frozen dumpling could be so smart? I didn’t buy them, if you’re wondering. But I did appreciate the good advice! And it’s true, you should always say no to drugs. It’s so much better to be alert so you don’t miss awesome, uncommon little gems like this in everyday [...]

A week ago today, my honey & I celebrated Vegan Love Day. We made up our own holiday. We prepared a vegan feast of made-from-scratch split pea soup, fresh sourdough bread, and coffee-chocolate cupcakes. We lit candles and actually sat down to eat at the table. We cooked, we laughed, we took pictures, we talked, [...]

…we got our winter wonderland! Today was a true snow day, with hours & hours of fat, juicy snowflakes falling to the gound…and sticking! We got at least 3-4 inches accumulation, and it’s so pretty! I alternated playing in the snow with sitting by the fire, which made for an awesome day. Jerry took lots [...]
