This was the first regular weekend I've had in a couple weeks due to Christmas and New Years extending things outward, so needless to say…it felt REALLY short. Also compounding the shortness was a nice trip out to Syracuse with my friends for some shopping and dinner. Wassy needed to go out to Syracuse to

As the title suggests, this post is going to be about two things…food and drinks. So starting with the food, I just wanted to give a little update on my cooking attempts. I've tried two new recipes this week. First up was some garlic chicken. This one turned out REALLY well and I'm definitely going

Er…I guess those three things don't go terribly well together. Anyway, this post is about apples and an update on my work Tea situation. Also about music. First the apples. It's fall, which means apple season! Since my friends live closer to the orchard than I do, I've had an agreement in place with them

I've started on a quest to make tea at work. Usually, in the afternoons I get a craving for something that's a little bit sweet that isn't water. And since we really don't have anything of the sort easily available, I usually end up hitting up the vending machine, which is bad. So I've decided

Aerial Acrobatics 1 This weekend was lots of fun, and I didn't even do anything I was planning on doing Friday. Everything sort of changed mid-stream. My plan was to spend the weekend cleaning up my apartment, doing a major clean type deal because it really needs it, going over to my friends for a

Last night Wassy came over for the usual mid-week stuff. This time around we went out to dinner at Applebee's. I had shrimp for the first time. They were fairly tasty, but there was a little too much there on the plate for my taste. After that we went back to my place to hang

Vanilla Green Tea The past couple weeks I've been on a tea discovery journey of sorts. First some history. I've never really been all that crazy about tea since I'm really sensitive to bitterness (coffee falls into this same category too) and straight black tea is a little too much for me to take. But

What’s your favorite blend or brand of coffee or tea? I’m not really a coffee person, or a tea person, so I can’t really answer the question. Instead I’ll just interpret this to mean “your favorite hot beverage” in which case I’d have to go with the new White Hot Chocolate from Dunkin Donuts. There are
