Me: Apparently those models who are over 35 - it’s Top Model for
Girl: Old people? Ew.

Me: Umhm.

Remember that Writer’s Block of Blathering Snippets I started (and yes, need to post again in)? Yeah. Psst. Over there on the sidebar there, there’s now a box that says “Writer’s Block” and under it some links. There’s the most recent snippets. It will take you direct to those posts here at the snippet blog.

I know. like I needed another one, huh? *L* My name is Lessa, and I am a blogaholic.
(and ya’ll know it’s just because I wanted to use that theme, right? Right.)
(stop looking at me like that!)

….huh.

So, that whole better living through apathy thing has me doing odd little things every once in a while. Like trying new foods that I normally avoid because I am a meat and potatoes girl and dammit pass the A1 sauce! But now every once in a while I find myself grabbing something like an avocado just to see if my tastes have changed. Eh, they’re alright, but whatever. So now I have a slice or two on occasion, and sometimes even eat some ‘green shit’ when having Mexican dinner with the parents.

It seemed like everyone I ran into was raving about something else, recently. Sweet potato fries. People have been RAVING. brush them with a little olive oil, salt and pepper and bake them like fries and eat. Ok. So I decided to try it because the internets, they assured me they were fantastic.

Raving freakin lunitics, the whole lot of them. That’s not to say they were ok - sweet with a bit of salt and pepper to cut the sweet a little, and good for you too. I’ve simply discovered, or rather rediscovered, something though. I don’t really have a sweet tooth. I know, shocking right? I’ve always been the salty fats crunchy chips kinda girl. The bloody things were TOO sweet and I couldn’t eat much of them at all. I want savory. I want mildly spiced beef steak and mashed potatoes smothered in butter to go along with it and if they’re on sale, some corn on the cop drenched in butter and salt because nothing - NOTHING tastes better then that… I want chicken (boneless/skinless tenderloins, of course) with rice and gravy, I want MEAT and STARCHES and I WANT ‘EM NOW!

Ahem. Anyway. If you have a sweet tooth - sweet potato fries are good and good for you. Enjoy. And pass the A1, will ya?

Downsizing!

It’s all the rage, nowdays. Even for the pup. Remember her previous living arrangement box?

messy-urchin

Well, seems she decided it was too big. All that decorating was just taking TOO MUCH TIME. So she downsized.

downsizingNow if only she had enough room to put a shirt on too…

[OH NOZ!

I know I'm no Annie Libwhatserface the photographer - but it's a half dressed child! WHAT WOULD HANNA MONTANA AND MULLET DADDY DO?! Oh yeah. Get mega bucks and a magazine cover or 80.

For me, I just made it a 'friends and family' picture only so only the freaks I actually know can find it on flickr. Heh. ]

GASP! What’s this?

Could it be? IT IS! There seems to be a stain marring the perfection of Our Brie’s Perfect Lawn. See?

stain

Can’t quite make it out? Look along the edges there, along the street where technically it’s not her lawn anyway, but Our Brie, she does love to encroach - even on the city. Here, I’ll circle it for you…

THERE. NOW you see it! DANDELIONS! Not just one, but TWO of them! I know for a fact that Our Brie? She HATES Dandelions! She has spent YEARS battling the pretty little weeds flowers. So the question is, HOW on earth did some of them manage to take seed along the edges of her perfection, beginning what is sure to be the battle of the summer?

I have NO idea how that might have happened. None. Honest.

Hehehehe.
