Today: made five and a half quarts of chicken stock. Visited the library with the kids. Drank lots of tea. Tried to eat creatively. As of yesterday, on the advice of a naturopathic doctor, I’m on a 30 day “whole foods” diet, which means nothing made with flour, no dairy, no refined sugar. Additionally, to […]

Breakfast: diced root vegetables with eggs and herbs; tea. And a probiotic capsule. Going to a housewarming party this afternoon, hopeful that there will be plenty of good dairyless stuff to eat.

Last night we decided to go out for dinner. Freya has always been great in restaurants, thank goodness. We went to one of our favorite spots, Mor Mor, known for its local gourmet food. A year ago we were still bringing her puree pouches and little bags of Cheerios out to restaurants, but she has […]

Some friends advised me to quit dairy if I want my skin to clear up. This was after the pharmacist told me that a tube of Differin gel would cost me $180. And that’s with my shitty insurance. Now I see what those tea party douchebags are fighting for! Anyway. So obviously I didn’t get […]

Today I went to Seattle and had an awesome pedicure with my mom. It was my treat for her birthday, which was yesterday. I ordered the $47 pedi — I figured why not since I have a feeling I haven’t had a pro pedicure in… three years? Jesus. Anyway it was so good. The polish […]

Yay for sparkly pinky coral nail polish. I didn’t make a to-do list for this weekend… though I know there will be a long dog walk at some point today. I got up just after seven and made apple cinnamon oatmeal on the stovetop, one of my favorite breakfasts. It’s so simple. There will never […]

I kind of want to have or go to a superbowl party this weekend. I like the ridiculous spectacle of this uniquely American holiday, and I like chips and dip. In order for this to happen I think we’d either have to be invited by our neighbors, or do something ourselves. We’ve entertained quite a […]

Got up early and had coffee while watching the prelude to the Inauguration. It was wonderful! I loved every minute. Though I was annoyed we don’t have CNN in HD for some reason. So I watched NBC in HD. Because I am addicted to HD. For breakfast I had two pieces of bacon and a […]
