1 oz. Godiva, dark chocolate
1 shot Bourbon (Jim Beam Black Label)
1 glass Hot Chocolate
1 pinch Pepper, cayenne

To me, it sounds like quite the opposite.

Gingerbread, Vegan, Cookies, SNAP!

Wed, 16 Dec 2009 11:11:36 -0500

2 1/2 c. organic whole wheat flour or spelt flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt

3/4 c. maple syrup, Grade B
1/4 c. molasses
1/2 c. applesauce
5 Tbsp fresh ginger, grated

Preheat oven to 350 F. In a large bowl, stir together dry ingredients. Add wet ingredients. Stir together gently until “just mixed.” Scoop 2 Tbsp portions onto a cookie sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes. Let the cookies cool for 5 minutes before removing them from the cookie sheet.

Makes: 20 cookies

Per Cookie: 102 Calories, .3g Fat, 2g Fiber, 2g Protein, 8% RDA Iron, 3% RDA Calcium

Tips
To grate the ginger, use a food processor.

Make your cookies all the same size so they will each finish baking at the same time. A great way to do this is by using a small ice cream scoop to scoop the dough onto the cookie sheet.

The Blog Thing

It’s quite a disputed subject. What goes out there in writing and stuff, and who can see it. But I have to say, writing is my favorite form of expression. And boy did it just feel good to get it all out.

One Good Laugh

If you have access to Season 4 of the L Word, watch episode 6 up until 13:50 minutes in and THEN you will laugh really hard. Or at least I just did.

“Lose this day loitering, ‘Twill be the same story Tomorrow — and the next more dilatory. Then indecision brings its own delays, and days are lost lamenting over days! Are you earnest? Seize this very minute! What you can do, or dream you can - begin it! Courage has genius, power and magic in it. Only engage, and the mind grows heated. Begin it, and the work will be completed.”

- Goethe

My boys are changing their name to Harper Blynn, but this was a tune they put out last year (while still known as Pete & J) for the holiday season. I may be Jewish, but I’ve been loving on Christmas songs since the very premature second they started playing all over the place in November.

Oh and tonight is Hanukah night #1. A very Merry, Happy, Christmanukah!

Little sister has dimples. Jealousy made me tease her that they were a muscle deficiency until she cried. I used to be a bitch. Now I’m a nice girl without dimples. Boo.

I hate being cold, and I do whatever it takes to keep myself warm. Even if we were in St. Louis on the hotel porch…I found the drapes.

heart

Mon, 07 Dec 2009 21:29:21 -0500

i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)i am never without it (anywhere
i go you go,my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)
i fear
no fate (for you are my fate,my sweet) i want
no world (for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that’s keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart (i carry it in my heart)

The City of Lost Children was introduced to me this summer while I was in Austin. Quite incredible and full of beautiful visuals.

“I have decided that if Lady Ga Ga was a real person, she’d be you. I mean that in a good way. Because you’re pretty, and awesome, and always up for a random night of fun with a perfectly strange stranger. When are we going to get drinks again?”

- Matt: (harmless gay guy that I met last year outside a club my friends were going into, when I panicked because I hate clubs and decided to go merrily on my own way. Mat was there too, in a similar situation so we walked off and drank wine together).

Odd, that. And this. And the other.

Vivid Memory

Wed, 25 Nov 2009 22:12:27 -0500

I have a very vivid memory of me sitting on the kitchen floor trying to smooth out the worry wrinkles in both my father and mother’s foreheads when I was very little. I distinctly remember how troubling it was that when I released my little fingers the worry lines were there right away…(not) Once again. Now I here I am trying to battle those similar lines. With no girl and no boy trying to straighten them out.
