WatchWatch
Here’s the video. Film, edit and music by ever-so-wonderful Kirsten Opstad.  Sidenote: let me appoligize for whatever is happening with my hair, especially my bangs. What is going on with my bangs? And for the fact that all my statements sound like a question? I don’t know why I talked like that. Enjoy! Or don’t. Whatever.

This thing I did...
So back in November, or maybe it was even early December, I made this video with my friend Kirsten. I wasn’t working as much, and had odd hours of the day open. Kirsten lives in the neighborhood and is also around during the day so we were hanging out, and it was great. Some CBS show was looking for non-professional bakers for a new reality thing they were casting. Now, reality shows really...

Belated Valentine's Day Post, Or: I'm sorry I'm...
Warning… things are about to get cute. For Valentine’s Day, because of our schedule’s, Tyler and I opted to do take-out. There is a short period of time between when Tyler gets home from work and I get too sleepy to function (aka, my bedtime) so it seemed like the best option to celebrate love-day. We decided upon sushi, and I offered to cover dessert. The last issue of Martha...

Look Mamma, I'm cooking!
I may have mentioned it before, but I’m not much of a cook, and by that I mean, I don’t really do it, ever. I can boil water, and heat things up (although we don’t have a microwave) and I’d say I make a make a mean salad and really do love peanut butter sandwiches. However, if left to my own devices, I would probably continue to eat like a kindergartener, all the time (see this or most recently,...

Wellness Wednesday
Since starting at the bakery, I’ve been working there 35-40 hours a week while also teaching on Tuesdays. Wednesday has been my one day off. Today is my whole weekend. I feel like I do a very good job making the best of my off time. I wake up pretty early without an alarm, have breakfast, start laundry. I’ve been going to a yoga class at the gym down the street from me. I’m...

Uh-oh Scones (but not really)
Part of my job at the bakery is to mix, shape and bake the scones for the day. I really enjoy it because I feel ownership of them. It’s cool thinking that 5 days a week, if someone has a scone at the bakery, I made that scone! Up until I got this job, I had never made scones before, ever. I didn’t really like scones (see: biscotti), but I thought since I make them every day at work, I...

An Update...
So here’s maybe the biggest news that I may ever share on this blog. Yes, even BIGGER than when I met Joy the Baker, bigger than when I cut my hair off. I’m actually pretty impressed with myself, that I haven’t blurted it out yet, but I needed to give it a proper post I got a job, in a bakery. There’s so much I have to tell you!! But that would take FOREVER. Long story...

Post Date Night Photo-doccumentation of Quick...
No, there’s no innuendo there. Stop it. You’re being gross. What could that even mean? I know, I’m sorry, you weren’t thinking of anything in the first place. I’ll stop being obnoxious. ANYWAY, last week Tyler and I celebrated the fact that we’ve been together for so many odd months and also that we were home at the same time on the same evening. After dinner,...
