One cool and windy night, I was in a rather rapid Facebook posting exchange with a friend when divine inspiration took place. My friend, who will remain nameless unless she "outs" herself, can't cook. I can, and I love it. Since we live too far apart, I can't have her over and help her down the road of culinary mastery. I thought that perhaps I could have some cooking lessons via a blog. I plan on starting out with some pretty basic things, as she confessed to setting things on fire when she tried to bake (and she wasn't trying to brulee anything at the time). Yes, I know there should have been an accent in brulee, but I don't know how to do that with this blog thingy...yet. It won't be long before she'll be cooking up a storm (and the fire department won't need to be alerted)!
So that was the inspiration. However, I also plan on using this space as an outlet for my verbosity (I'm sort of infamous for my lengthy typing and love of e-mails) and sharing some of my...well...LIFE! After all, it IS in the title. Besides, I should take pictures of something other than my cat.
Thank you for stopping by, and I hope that you enjoy your visits. (If you have any suggestions/requests as to what I should cook, please let me know!)
It's true. She doesn't like vomit. Or rotting vegetation for that matter. Embalming she can handle. A rotting green pepper in the crisper? No way. Go figure.
ReplyDeleteI'm with her on the rotting green pepper in the crisper!!
ReplyDeleteWelcome to Blog-land, Loralei! I've added you as an RSS feed to my reader, and am looking forward to more adventures in cooking (and other stuff). :)
Good grief, a lot of the songs on your playlist are...well...mournful. Here's some suggestions to pep it up a bit:
ReplyDeleteRock 'n' Roll All Nite - Kiss
I Saw Her Standing There - The Beatles
You Really Got Me - The Kinks
Even Sunshine Day by The Brady Bunch would help, for Pete's sake...
Umm...did you not read or REMEMBER that I'm all about MOURNFUL? (How long have I been married to you? I'm fairly certain the warranty is about up...) :P
ReplyDeleteGeesh,
ReplyDeleteI have to agree with Phin, this music is so elevatorish...This is great that your doing this.
any bites on jobs yet? About emailing, didn't know you love to email so much, I never get these emails :(
