Apparently, someone neglected to tell me that a diet of bread, beer, cheese and potatoes (sometimes all in one dish) is not a guaranteed weight-loss plan because during the two years in Germany I’ve actually packed on a solid 10 pounds.
(Maybe 15.)
That same someone apparently ALSO forgot to mention that sitting on my butt playing [...]
Am I the only one who eats the inside of everything? Bread, cake, cookies. You all know the inside is where the AWESOMENESS hides, right?
I made this cake on Sunday and after I allowed myself a half a piece in the morning and a half of a piece at night, I finally broke down. I [...]
Ever since we’ve lived here I no longer eat cereal for breakfast because I’m afraid of milk on a shelf (for those of you that don’t know, the milk is sold unrefrigerated and it scares me). Instead, I usually eat whatever strange thing is lying around. This morning, it was mashed potatoes and saurkraut.
I just [...]
Travis and I have always been big celebrators of the holiday of Cinco de Mayo. Well, “big” as in we like to go out and drink margaritas together. So, last night on the way home from the work, I stopped at the gas station intending to clear them out of anything remotely Mexican related. I [...]
Forty-five pieces of pizza? No problem. Godfather’s all-you-can-eat lunch buffet, 1993, Cedar Rapids, Iowa. A friend and I went there for lunch one day in high school and we each ate ten slices of dessert pizza alone, not counting the countless main course slices. I remember our biology lab at 1 that day as being [...]
Last night, four of us went out to dinner at our favorite Italian restaurant. The owner, who’s helped us before, neglected to provide menus this time, and we all ordered dinners based on his recommendations. And he made us appetizers, too. Only one drink was consumed.
Our bill was almost two hundred euros. TWO. HUNDRED. That’s [...]
Is it a bad sign to dream about an extra-large, super-duper sized bag of Doritios falling into my hands AND the owner of my favorite bar back home in the same night? What does that say about the things I miss from home?
I’ve discovered there’s not much better than a healthy, organic, oat bran pretzel dipped in this.
I’ve been bad about posting lately, probably the worst I’ve ever been in the history of this blog, and I apologize. The deal is: work sucks. That’s why it’s 8:30 on a Sunday morning and I’m working. And I have meetings starting at 6:30 tomorrow morning. SIX-THIRTY. Ungodly.
But anyway. Besides the working part, this has [...]
Last night, a girlfriend and I baked. And not just like a random batch of cookies. We seriously, all-out, put the hurt on some flour, sugar, and the oven for four-and-a-half solid hours.
As a result, I now have:
27 peanut clusters
73 chocolate chip cookies
31 peanut butter balls
19 sugar cookies
59 no-bake cookies
AND 57 peanut butter cookies
Now, surely [...]
