Yesterday when I was bagging up my kitchen garbage to take out, I spilled garbage juice all over my work pants and wool socks. Nasty. I immediately took them off and soaked them in a bucket of water with a few glugs of vinegar added, to help deodorize them. I’ll be laundering them today… First [...]

kitchen towel
The above photo was taken early in the morning while I was preparing my breakfast and lunch. I lay on my kitchen floor beside my refrigerator to take it. This is the towel (rag, really) that I use to wipe my hands while I’m working in the kitchen. I change it every day for a [...]

perfect parking
I park in an underground parking lot at my office. It’s a good day when I can pull through into my spot, so that I’m facing out rather than having to back in. Perfect parking. The perfect parking spot. It’s funny how good that makes me feel. Another thing that makes me feel good is [...]

magical bowls
I store produce in two glass-fronted cupboards in my kitchen. Each cupboard holds several bowls on shelves, and to a friend of mine, it looks like the bowls magically replenish themselves every week. I wish. This whimsical idea has been entertaining me, though. What if I really did have magical bowls? What if they really [...]

making breakfast
This is the scene pretty much every workday morning in my kitchen. I make my breakfast and my lunch at this counter, using this cutting board. Tomatoes optional. ___ See this on Tumblr.

There’s no getting around it – my kitchen sink is clogged. Damn. I’m going to have to contact my landlord… This is another photo taken with my new Hipstamatic Tintype SnapPak. ___ See the original post on Tumblr.

pied piper of hamelin
When my former boyfriend and his family paid me a visit a few weeks ago, they brought a few small gifts, including this fun, temperature-sensitive mug advertising the 750th anniversary of the Pied Piper of Hamelin (otherwise known as Hameln, Germany). Above is how the mug looks at room temperature. It’s dark grey, with a [...]

my favorite summer salad
I’ve been making a lot of (like three times daily) salads this summer, because it’s been so hot. I typically eat cooked vegetables (spinach and other greens, sweet potatoes and squash, green beans, sweet bell peppers and zucchini are some of my favorite veggies to cook), but this summer I’ve been focusing on raw. This [...]
