Here’s your chance to get back at me if I’ve ever done anything to tick you off. It doesn’t really fit (size-wise) in this space very well, so if you’d rather, you can always play it here instead. Be sure to let me know in the comments what your score was. That [...]

I tend to spend most of my blogtime reading work-related blogs. In fact, if I hadn’t stumbled across Confessions of a Pioneer Woman because I marked Cooking as a topic in StumbleUpon, I would never have run across this woman’s personal blog. But I sure am glad I did.

If you recall, a month ago, I confessed that I cannot cook, and that an 18-ingredient recipe should NOT categorize itself as EASY (referring to an empanada recipe I stumbled across). Today, I stumbled across two recipe-related sites, and I really like them both.

Yesterday, we had a portion of our land cleared of brush. During the clearing process, a little nest of baby birds was discovered. Unable to put the birds back into the same spot (which no longer existed), we propped up the branch containing the nest in the same general area, hoping that would [...]

Nearly two years ago, Hurricane Katrina struck, and I learned then what I wish I’d had on hand when it happened. Since then, I’ve made it my mission to stock up on everything I needed but didn’t have during that emergency. I thought it would be useful to list everything I keep handy [...]

I’m simply dying to win a role on CSI as a dead body. I love, love, love CSI and they are holding a simple contest. Register to win and you could play a dead body on a future CSI episode. How cool is that? How do you enter? [...]

After using WordPress for a while now on different sites, I’ve come to the conclusion that WordPress simply rocks. I’m not sure I would ever use anything else for a new site, even a non-blog site. In any case, over time, I’ve used the following Wordpress plugins and widgets on some or all [...]
