Today, we're veering off track a little so I can make a complete dork of myself in the following video. It's about 8.5 minutes long, but hey, I'm conducting an experiment here, people! Besides, you get to laugh at me . . . a lot. That should help, right? Okay, maybe not. Watch it anyway.… Continue reading Prince…Charming? – Online Dating – Week 5

Easy Chicken Parmesan
I haven't had a chance to post this super easy recipe until now. It comes to me by way of my sister-friend Deni, who is most awesome and also gave me the recipe for the Red Velvet Cupcakes! Deni made this for me one night about 10 years or so ago, before she really learned… Continue reading Easy Chicken Parmesan
Dating Site Tip #1
Guys, when you give your personal contact info (such as an email addy or your yahoo IM) in the VERY FIRST email because you don't want to deal with the dating site, that's an immediate disqualification from the dating pool. Seriously. Now go take your time out by the locker room. *blows whistle*
Track Changes 101
Today, I'm going to teach you all about Track Changes in MS Word. If you don't know what that is, that's okay. I've encountered many writers over the last few years who haven't a clue.

The Last One
My last grandparent died on Saturday morning around five o'clock. You've seen me talk about her a lot. I call her G-ma. She's the only grandparent I had left since 2003 when my other grandmother (on Umi's side) passed away. She died on grandpa's birthday, August 31st. Before her, grandpa died in February 1995, two… Continue reading The Last One
It’s My Party . . .
. . . and I'll do whatever the hell I want! And what do I want to do today, on this special day, my day of birth? Well, seeing as how I haven't been to bed yet and I'm feeling a bit loopy crazy, I want to give away a copy of my new book… Continue reading It’s My Party . . .

Do you know how to contain a grease fire? Most people don't. The picture below will show you what happens when a grease fire gets out of control.

Spaghetti with a Kick
If you don't know, I've been house-sitting all week for a friend of mine who had to go to Texas. However, her youngest son, who was supposed to house sit for someone else, has been here off and on throughout the week.
