Over the hills and far away*

Well, kids. We’re off for a weekend filled with the eating of s’mores (mmmm, graham-cracker-chocolatey-marshmallowy goodness, where have you been all of my life?), the fishing of rivers and the hiking of trails. Likely, there will also be the sunburning and mosquito-biting of skin, the dirtying of the hair (I’m told there will be a [...]
Rendezvous, then I’m through with you

There was this one time, when I made out with a rock star. Seriously. Well, kind of. And it took me hearing one of his songs today on the radio to jog my memory and make me realize that I have never written about the incident here. That I have been withholding such a juicy [...]
10 Things, vol. 6 — the never-before-seen photo edition
Posted on June 28, 2006 | Category: 10 Things | 8 Comments
1. I like cake. Especially frosting. I’m the type to go for the corner piece just to get more than my fair share of frosting. Sometimes, I’ll even snag a frosting rose. The more sugary, the better. This obsession started early.2. It’s pretty much common knowledge that I don’t like cats. I’m more of a [...]
On camping, hiking and eating, oh my

Last week I was chatting with one of my co-workers about how Roth and I are going camping this coming weekend. She said something about not really being a camping kinda gal, either. To which I said, well, there are a few things I like about camping. And I started listing them out: s’mores, sunflower [...]
I love my husband — reason # 333
Posted on June 23, 2006 | Category: I Love My Husband | 6 Comments
He gets along famously with my family, especially my mom. I’m convinced that whenever my mom comes to visit us in Seattle (she’s been here three times in less than a year, folks – safe to say she misses us something fierce), she and Roth tend to gang up on me a bit. As in, [...]

Roth and I are garden people. Scratch that. Roth is a garden person. As in, he does all the work while I? I reap the benefits of being married to a greenthumb kinda guy. Meaning, I just eat the fruits (and vegetables) of his labor with some butter and lemon pepper. It’s only natural that [...]
Jeepers creepers, where’d ya get those PEEPERS?

So there’s this site called 25 Peeps, and I don’t quite understand the concept exactly, but basically, I signed up weeks ago to be featured as one of the 25 Peeps, and today, I made it on. Woot. Here’s the thing – it’s some sort of blog popularity contest (though it looks like a porn [...]
Life, and other assorted minutiae
Posted on June 20, 2006 | Category: Uncategorized | 8 Comments
In lieu of 10 Things (which isn’t going bye-bye, or transforming into One Thing, as a few of my readers suggested, it’s just taking a break while I try to drum up some more things because clearly, there ARE more things, as my parents reminded me), I feel it’s time for one of those “here’s [...]
There could never be a daughter who loved her father more than I love you*

Seeing that it’s Father’s Day AND Roth’s and my first wedding anniversary today, I thought it fitting to share with y’all some of my favorite photos from the wedding featuring my dad and I. Here, my dad is giving Roth some heartfelt pre-wedding advice at the rehearsal dinner. Either that, or they’re just talking about [...]

- I know it's the top news story in Seattle but I cannot bear to watch coverage of what happened to the Powell boys today. So, so sad.
