Baked Southwestern Eggrolls…

Southwestern Eggrolls

I don’t typically jump on eggroll recipes for a number of reasons. The frying and grease splatter for one. And as much as I love Chinese food, I’m not crazy about eggrolls. And then I came across a recipe titled Baked Southwestern Eggrolls and I read on. Baked…no frying, no grease. Also healthier. Southwestern…that generally implies a Mexican inspired food. And if there’s a food I love more than Chinese food (other than say…caramel filled… Keep reading…Baked Southwestern Eggrolls…

A familiar town…

I had twenty-some posts sitting in drafts. I finally went through and purged it down to four. I’d call that progress. I keep trying to write something about writing and it’s all coming out as indecipherable gibberish. Much like my writing. Par for the course. I did 1/2 mile in 10 minutes on the elliptical today. I’ll chalk that one up in the victory column. I’ve been doing 1/4 mile averaging 5.5 to 6.5 minutes… Keep reading…A familiar town…

Falling off the face of your world…

WordPress, I would appreciate it if you would let me finish typing my post title before you generate the post URL. Plzkthxby. I’ve been awake since about 3AM. Because clearly I only need four hours of sleep during the night. I did a quarter mile on the elliptical this morning after Bob left for work. I did the same distance yesterday. It’s piddly, I know. But I am so severely out of shape, my legs… Keep reading…Falling off the face of your world…

And then I keeled over and died…

Hi. I'm TWELVE

But I pride myself on NOT being a typical woman. Also, I’ve been whining about being fat and wanting an elliptical machine for MONTHS. We figured we’d invest in a machine eventually, after we paid off our current big bills—the furniture, the credit card that covered so many… Keep reading…And then I keeled over and died…

Movement…

When we closed on the house I figured I’d start moving more of my stuff out of my parents’ house and into our house. I figured if I tackled the mountain of stuff still in my old bedroom little by little each time I was there, it wouldn’t be such a daunting task to transfer everything. Monday my mom called me and asked me to come finish cleaning out my closet. She needs the space…. Keep reading…Movement…

The hardest part was yesterday…

I’m revisiting an old story project I started roughly eight years ago. I had a lot of hope for it at the time, but it was a struggle to accomplish much writing on it. I realized, after beating it into submission several times over, that one of the main characters was the problem. Other characters were properly constructed, but one…just wasn’t working. And he was an important character. If he didn’t work, there wasn’t much… Keep reading…The hardest part was yesterday…
