*psst* Let me let you in on a secret… You all know what a Miami Vice fangirl I am. But my favorite character from the series is not that super-hottie Crockett. It’s not Tubbs, even though he’s so cheesily awful he’s great. It’s not even the Ferrari Daytona Spider from the first two seasons. It’s […]

Shhh! It’s someone’s birthday! Our little friend Gulliver is 9 years old! Actually, his birthday was yesterday. But he’s just a little cat and doesn’t know his days of the week very well, so he doesn’t mind. Catnip and treats for all!

Nobody but me gives a damn, but whooo-hooo, Season 4 of Dallas is out on DVD! Of course, I put it right up at the top of my Netflix queue soon as I found out. I love me my Ewings! Season four is an action-packed season of discovery. I’ve only watched 9 episodes so far, […]

Mexican food Chef Rick Bayless is my favorite “celebrity chef.” I’ve never seen his show, but his food kicks ass. I LOVE the whole line of Frontera mexican product goodness! (And I even have his Mexican Everyday cookbook on my Amazon Wishlist. *ahem*) Anyway, the Frontera line is all awesome. There’s nothing you can buy […]

First off, I want to give a birthday shout out to my bro, Whistler! Go and give him a pinch to grow an inch! It was one of those kinds of weekends, just running around, being busy. Saturday we had to do all of our chores, because Sunday we went to Hometown Hellhole. Got there […]

Now of all the really stupid BBM parodies, jokes, and rip-offs flooding the ol’ interweb these days, THIS ONE is the truly funniest, IMO. It’s BBM humor and foodie humor all at once, can’t beat that! (And on a personal note, it’s disturbing how many of the things on this list I’ve bought. *gasp* I’m […]

It’s that time again, time when we give mad birthday props to Mr. Hugh Beaumont! This man is so cool, he was featured on an episode of MST3K as one of the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse! You know him as the Wardster, and sure, who wouldn’t want Hugh as their idealized tv husband or […]

I just noticed that every bath product I own is food-oriented, food-flavored, food-scented, or all of the above. It’s getting kind of weird. In my bathroom right now I have: Origins Cocoa Therapy Body Scrub Origins Cocoa Therapy Soap Origins Cocoa Therapy Body Butter (all of the above made with cocoa butter, ground up cocoa […]

..I wish that I was like Whistler or Kirkkitsch and carried a digital camera around everyplace I go. Then I would have a picture to prove to you what I saw flashing by on the electronic billboard outside of the Monroeville Maul. “GET YOUR SUPERBOWEL SHIRTS AT DICK’S” I’m so not making that up.

That was our weekend. Saturday was pretty nice. We went to Christos downtown, one of my favorite Greek places that I really don’t get to nearly enough. *insert obligatory drooling* Followed up with a movie/concert across the street at the Byham. The whole “silent movie accompanied by live musicians” thing must really be catching on. […]

I used to love bookstores, but anymore I just dread setting foot into one. I just know that I will come out frustrated and disappointed. Is it just me, or do they simply NOT stock ANYTHING that ANYONE, let alone me, would want to read? I can’t count the times over the past 2 or […]

Overnight it was replaced by a thriving neighborhood, full of affordable, quality housing and locally-owned shops! Not only that, but Rick Santorum has voluntarily resigned his […]

ROETHLISBERGER SUCKS ASS! I just felt like saying that. I was thinking about making up a sign and hanging it out front, but I don’t have a good place to hang it from, and my street doesn’t get quite enough traffic. Yes, for those few readers out there who do not live in the greater […]

Well, well, well! The Oscar noms were announced on Tuesday, and it looks like a big sweep for BBM! It was nominated in every major category that it deserved. Even Michelle Williams got a nom which I think is great. Congrats to Ang and the Boys! I hope you kick some Spielbergian ass come March […]

Happy Birthday Mr. Gable! Though the decades may pass as they will, you are still the unconquered King of Hollywood. On a related note, while you are pondering the Glory of Clark, you may want to visit this incredible new site that Marci found for me. It’s called Greenbriar Picture Shows, and it’s totally enthralling! […]
