i miss summer gardens mish-mash post

January 17, 2011

There was quite a while last year that I went without posting, and during that time I really did have a few things that I’d wanted to share.  So why not throw some together now in one little mish-mash?
We’ll start with the garden at my parents this past summer.  Since we’re currently in the midst [...]

health review (?)

January 8, 2011

Around the time I started this blog I posted about my New Years General Resolutions.  You can go back and re-read it if you so desire, but I can summarize it for you with ease- I wanted to be healthier.  I think I’ve achieved this.  Not to suggest that I’m a picture of health and [...]

way to go, wegmans

January 3, 2011

Since I started using Twitter (and yes, I recently protected my tweets… but I guarantee your requests to follow will be approved…) I’ll admit that a friend of mine and I have, on occasion, tweeted something to someone famous (or someone who we thought was cool but they certainly had no idea who we were) just [...]

top ten for two thousand and ten

January 2, 2011

It’s common for blogs to do a year in review and countdowns and such, so I’m jumping on board with my top ten.  That Girl Kyle has only been in existence since this past February, but out of some 70 odd posts so far, here’s the ones with the most reads.
10.  the insanity rant

30:30 and a local letdown

December 28, 2010

After spending the first half of this year in a fitness craze, I went in reverse for the second half.  Although the summer was filled with fun activities like kayaking, hiking, skiing and biking, since the turn of chillier weather I’ve gone all out on the two activities I’m best at- eating and drinking.
And what [...]

local focus

December 13, 2010

Have you ever thought about what you consume and how much of it is produced locally?  Have you ever considered making an effort at localizing the majority of your consumptionistic tendencies?  (I know I made that word up.  Who cares.)
This is something that has been on my mind for quite a while now, and I’ll [...]

i’m in love

December 5, 2010

So.  I suppose it’s about time I explain my month long hiatus from blogging.
It’s true.  I’m in love.
After an extensive search including living with, looking for, checking out new and old… I’ve finally found the one.
At first I was skeptical.  Previously I’ve been drawn more towards new options with things I haven’t had in the [...]

bring on the wine

October 27, 2010

Recently I set a new goal for myself- to pursue certification as a sommelier. As for the exact path I will take… I’m still deciding. But who cares- I’ll iron out the details on that some other time. However, when the opportunity arose last week to join a friend at the New [...]

the triumphant return?

October 4, 2010

It’s difficult.  After bombarding the internet with 2+ blogposts a week for months and enjoying every second of it, I lost my umph.  This past month is an uncomfortable manifestation of the fact.  I had so many options of things to write about- from tomato sauce from scratch with my mom; enjoying throwing my first [...]

i’m a jerk… that doesn’t always proofread

August 21, 2010

I’m apartment hunting.  Floor plans are important to me.  One complex I’m researching online is obviously overhauling their website and does not have images available online- so I fill out the request form and ask if a floor plan can be emailed to me.  The following is 100% true and word for word (minus identifying [...]

fortune cookie humor

August 9, 2010

I love fortune cookies.  I love the surprise, secret, suggestive nature of them.  I eat the cookie before reading my fortune because otherwise the fortune loses it’s cosmic sway.  When eating fortune cookies with a group of people I instruct them that they must do the same… then everyone must take a turn and read [...]
