Cat shoes call for cat-eye liner, don’t you think? Toby got me these fabulous shoes recently with a coupon we had, and I could hardly wait to wear them. Since it’s hella hot around here, I figured a comfortable sleeveless dress + belt combo was just the thing. I probably should have waited until I […]
I’ve always been Team Coke. Even though I didn’t grow up in the South, I have always referred to fizzy soft drinks as Coke — not “pop” or “soda.” And I really dislike the taste of Pepsi. What is really annoying, though, is when people try to tell me I can’t tell the difference between […]
Toby grew up a Bengals fan, and when we got married I became a Bengals fan by extension. It helps that several awesome Georgia Bulldogs now play for the Bengals (including Geno Atkins, Robert Geathers and A.J. Green). And that they signed a previously released player to the practice squad to to the practice squad […]
Despite the fact that it’s sweltering hot here in southern California (particularly for those of us without air conditioning at home), fall clothes are everywhere — and that means lots of leather. In the past, I generally associated leather with ladies who are much cooler and ediger than me. But now that Talbots carries a leather pencil […]
The waffles were delicious. They really were. But building a make-your-own waffle bar is a mess and kind of a pain. The timing is a challenge, because you don’t want the waffles sitting on the table for too long, or they’ll get cold and a little soggy. And having to make the waffles separately is […]
I was always under the impression that everyone loved chocolate chip cookies. Then, in college, I dated a guy who disliked chocolate so much that, as a child, he’d tell people he was allergic to it so he wouldn’t have to eat it. And I was friends with a girl who loved the cookie part […]
Jen’s note: Fab Fave Friday is a recurring feature in which I highlight some of my favorite things — in all sorts of categories. Today’s category is workout pants. Why are workout clothes made for people who already in awesome shape? I’m not talking about size availability, though that is definitely a major issue, too, […]
Even though we were up to our ears in waffles and peaches on Saturday, you know I couldn’t possibly have people over without making dessert. So what kind of dessert does one make for a breakfast-themed party? How about marshmallows with candied bacon in them? I can’t take credit for the brilliant idea of putting bacon inside […]
For UGA’s first football game of the season, I wanted to make something breakfast-y that said “Georgia.” And there are few things that invoke both Georgia and breakfast foods more than Waffle House. I had seen and heard of Waffle House before I moved to Athens for college, of course, but I’m pretty sure I had […]
I have a problem. I love inviting people over and making tons of food for them — way too much food, always — but I never plan it out correctly. What that means is that I’m usually still cooking when the first guests arrive, and there’s always at least one thing that doesn’t get made. […]
