Today, one of my bestest friends, Deni, has decided to share this recipe she tried out on her man the other night with great success. It was also Deni's birthday yesterday, the 13th, so we're wishing her a very happy birthday! With cake! Now, Deni hates Chinese food, so J never gets Chinese food, but… Continue reading Sweet and Sour Chicken (Modified)

Dating Tip #5
Today's tip, I got from Millionaire Matchmaker Patti Stanger, which is a hilariously awesome show and entertains me on many levels. Don't give too much information (TMI) on the first date, phone call, etc. because you have to leave some mystery, people. Besides, all those skeletons in your closet will come out down the road eventually. For… Continue reading Dating Tip #5
Move On, Move Forward
I've been thinking about a lot of things lately, good and bad things, stupid things, things that annoy me, and I've had several posts running through my mind about each of those things. Then, the other day, I pretty much realized something that negates it all. I'd like to share that with you today, and… Continue reading Move On, Move Forward
Online Dating – Week 4
Today, we're going to take a look at my "About Me" section on the dating site, and you guys get to critique it! That's right, since most of you are writers, I'm recruiting you to tell me what in the hell is wrong with my "bio" ... or not. About Me: I'm getting the feeling… Continue reading Online Dating – Week 4
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 #4
Guys, please, for the love of God, don't come off as totally jaded in your profile. What I mean is, don't write things like, "if you're here to play games, just keep looking because I'm not the guy for you," and shit like that. It's really off-putting, and makes me skip your profile simply because… Continue reading Dating Site Tip #4
Singled Out – Online Dating – Week 3
I'm seriously beginning to doubt Match.com's matching capabilities. Just because two people both have dogs doesn't make them a match. Even better? Just because a guy shares the same birth month with me, it most certainly does not make us a match. Why? Two Gemini together are great as friends, but as lovers? Oh hell… Continue reading Singled Out – Online Dating – Week 3
Dating Site Tip #3
Gentlemen, learn how to spell, please. For someone like me, if you don't know the difference between "your" and "you're," I'm less likely to be interested because it shows either a lack of education or that you're a lazy writer. I am a writer and editor, after all. UPDATE: a woman who has an education will very rarely… Continue reading Dating Site Tip #3
Online Dating – Week 2
So...I'm kidding. Well, not much happening in week two other than I've had no contact with Bachelors #1 and #2, but have had a few phone conversations with Bachelor #3 (aka Nocturnal One) after having drinks and wonderful conversation with him last Friday (the 16th). I met him at 9pm at Barnes & Noble (my… Continue reading Online Dating – Week 2
Dating Site Tip #2
Guys, fill out your entire profile, especially the section about your potential mate. Otherwise, I just think you're a scam artist and move to the next profile when your mate height preference says 3'0" to 8'0" and nothing else is filled out.
