Not even the “sports” setting on my camera can contain such a wild beast.

As a grad student, I don’t have a ton of money for eating out all the time. (And, honestly, I can’t even figure out how I managed that as an undergrad. How I miss my more-than-weekly Chipotle trips!) Most of the time, I come home to eat. Living close enough so that I can do [...]
such a sunday
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged knit, life on 8 November, 2009 | 3 Comments »
Today was absolutely gorgeous, with just the right balance of productivity and relaxation. ..which is exactly how a Sunday should be, in my opinion. The weather was just perfect for leaving the windows open all day and giving Snake a bath outside. Now my house smells doubly fresh!
I was able to make some serious progress [...]
make a pumpkin pie from scratch
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged adventures, food, recipes on 7 November, 2009 | 2 Comments »
Today I got really ballsy and decided to make a real pumpkin pie out of real pumpkin that I picked a couple weeks ago. Now you can too!
Start out with a pie pumpkin or two. Pie pumpkins are smaller than your average carving pumpkins. Here’s some scale:
Now, cut the top off of that pumpkin and [...]
my favorite scarf
Posted in Uncategorized on 6 November, 2009 | 1 Comment »
I have a confession to make. It’s my favorite scarf.
You’ll notice that it’s not knitted. It’s not even made lovingly by hand, unless you count whomever pushed the button to get the factory machine running. But I wait all year to wear this scarf. It rarely leaves my neck, even indoors, and I’ve been known [...]

I would like to cordially invite anyone who’s interested to the Mugshot Thursdays group on Flickr! It’s an open group, and all you have to do is take a picture of yourself and your mug on Thursday and post it. Well, really, “mug” has devolved to “any beverage,” at least for me. Please join us; [...]
i <3 netflix
Posted in Uncategorized on 4 November, 2009 | 5 Comments »
There is so much bad customer service in this world that I tend to get really excited over a great experience. Take today, for example. I’ve been really enjoying my Netflix subscription for about four months now with no problems. But here’s what arrived today:
Well, obviously the remote is just there to [...]
fall workout plan
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged indiana, life, snake on 3 November, 2009 | 4 Comments »
Do you know why they call it fall? It’s because the leaves FALL all over your damn yard, and then you have to rake them into the street until you feel like your arms are going to FALL off. Maybe you even FALL down from exhaustion because you eat later now that daylight savings time [...]
making plans
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged life, snake on 2 November, 2009 | 3 Comments »
So I’ve had all of these great ideas for what to blog about all month! Knitting content, food content (been a while, eh?), other stuff.. For someone who wasn’t planning on committing to post, I sure am excited. But I guess if you build it, they will come. Or something.
I know [...]

Alright, I wasn’t going to hop on this year, but Mia convinced me. Time, content, and motivation are yet to be decided. Here’s to November!
