  • we didn’t eat out the entire week. not a once. we’re in super-saving mode now, trying to live “thriftily” while i save up for my sex-change operation.
  • we made our version of pepe’s white clam pizza this weekend. and i gotta say, it was pretty damn good. shucking mahogany clams is a hell of a lot easier than shucking oysters.
  • yes, i’m back to taking pictures of my food. i’m crazy. soon, you will be able to find the recipes here as well. it’s, um, still in the works. as soon as i get my creative team working on the design…
  • did you know that you can do your federal taxes online for free using turbotax online? really easy and quick. this is the earliest i’ve ever finished my taxes.
  • my bike broke yesterday. the belt came off and it took about 2 hours to try to fix it. i had just about given up and was ready to bring it back to the store and get a new one. but then a stroke of genius took told of me and i managed to untangle the puzzle. yay me!
  • it’s possible to buy brand-new-still-in-the-plastic pairs of sevens on ebay for about $40. this is pretty sweet considering you pay $150+ for them in stores. screw retail.
  • hey, maybe i should get me some micropatrons. uber-blogger jason kottke has quit his day job and is depending on the generosity of his readers to support his blogging full-time. come on, if every gives me cash, i’ll promise to give you lots and lots of recipes and pictures of me nekkid and stuff.
  • we thought the aviator sucked. ok, so leo was pretty good and there was some nice cinematography (at least i think that’s what it is), but where was the story? thank god it didn’t win the oscar.
