** 1. The Office stare machine. Just do it. 2. This post on writing and motherhood. 3. This post on starting a podcast (I still want to do a writer/bookish one—will it ever happen?

Crash Course covers everything from literature to history to science (not to mention he’s kinda my nerdy author… Read More
In our quest to eat healthier, we’ve started “making up” some yummy dishes. Egg scramble is one of our (my) favorites. Two months ago, I could hardly eat scrambled eggs or an omelet without cheese—not that cheese is particularly bad for you, but I felt like we (I) ate way to much. Now I don’t even notice that my eggs… Read More
