Wednesday, March 28th, 2007I think my last post must have deeply offended Tron Guy, Mighty Lord of the Internets, because he smote(? smited?) my sweet defenseless cable modem.
So now, not only is my blog still awry, I’m also without internet access until sometime Sunday. And let me tell you, the library frowns on patrons bringing in batches […]
Counting myself in.
Tuesday, March 27th, 2007So many things are still not quite right here in gezellig-girl.land, but while I’m working them out, I’ve decided I’m going to take up the Penny-Wise Eat Local Challenge next month, from 23-29 April.
And in accordance with the challenge, here’s my requested statement:
1. What’s your definition of local for this challenge?
I’m going to buy […]
Still working out the bugs.
Monday, March 26th, 2007Things are so almost nearly fixed.
Hang in there; I got a guy working on it right now….

Move over, bacon! I mean, Yahoo!
Thursday, March 22nd, 2007There’s something… less crappy.
Yahoo! Web Hosting has really been a disappointment, so in the next couple days, I’m moving to a new web host. Hopefully, it’ll all go off without a hitch, but if you come by and everything’s in disarray, you’ll know why.

Resolutions 2007: The One About Bentos
Thursday, March 22nd, 2007One of my 2007 resolutions was to pack more bento lunches for my husband. I recently mentioned I have a bento cabinet, which sounds a lot cooler than it is. In truth, it’s a small, awkwardly-placed cabinet in which almost nothing else would fit, so it became “the bento cabinet.” (Although, now that I think […]
Wait… what?
Tuesday, March 20th, 2007This just landed in my inbox: FreshDirect is offering a premade Passover seder plate and $20 gets you a platter, prefilled with all the necessary items.
To wit:
Why schlep all over town? Our seder package includes an attractively blue-scripted white platter full of all the essentials: a cooked lamb shank, a hard-boiled egg, parsley, romaine hearts, […]
So many puns I want to make using the words “excellent” or “exactly.” Must resist.
Tuesday, March 20th, 2007A couple days ago, I found myself longing for the frozen custard from the small ice cream stand we used to live near and after searching recipes for a while, I struck upon a really good one. Then, I noticed there were more dessert recipes that looked good. And more good-looking non-dessert recipes on another […]
The downward-facing dog pose of food.
Friday, March 16th, 2007I had a yoga instructor who used to tell her students everyone has one pose they find effortless on their very first try*, and one pose they will always struggle with. As for me, like the title says, downward-facing dog is my yoga nemesis. No matter what I do, it just doesn’t work out for […]
Homely food needs love, too.
Thursday, March 15th, 2007Sometimes I cook something that’s, well, not-so-pretty and I think, should I really bother to post this? it looks kinda bad.
However, I recently got My French Kitchen from the library (written by Joanne Harris, author of Chocolat) and I’m so enamored with it, I’m posting this anyway, its ugliness be damned.
Pork Chop with Mustard Sauce

In case you missed it this past Sunday:
Tuesday, March 13th, 2007I finally made a pie.
And it was pretty good.
