    Warning to all those without children: it’s best to stop reading this right now. I used words like “potty”, “number two” and “diarrhea slide”. Em turned three on Sunday. And he’s not yet entirely potty trained. He’ll pee in the toilet 99% of the time. He’s been pee potty trained for a long time. It’s…

    The following is a text message correspondence between Toby Joe and me. It took place over the course of several hours on May 18th, 2010. I reprinted it word-for-word, so please try and overlook any grammar and spelling errors. There is a backstory at the end of this post. May 18th, 2010 8:51 AM (From…

    Let me get this right, Internet ad: Hit the clinic. Have abortion. Lose 10lbs. Visit tanning bed? I joke because this is absurd. Who falls for this garbage? Clearly two chicks, one of whom is roughly 6 months pregnant.

    We studied flourless soufflés last week in class, both fruit and chocolate. By the end of the day, we weren’t able to finish baking everything, so I had some strawberry-flavored simple syrup left over. I took it home and turned it into a sorbet. It’s outstanding. Sweet and outstanding. Anyway, today I want to share…

    This picture captures a great deal about Murray and my relationship. (It also captures my double chin.) This happens at least twice each day and he almost always drools on me.

    We’re studying eggs this week. It’s been one hell of an eye-opening week to say the least. I’m floored by how much I’ve learned already. And I’m floored by how much I should have known and did not. I’ve been making so many mistakes all these years! Ah well, that’s why I’m in school, right?…

    We saw Inception last night. But don’t worry, this post has nothing to do with the movie. There will be no spoilers. It was a sold-out show. This happens frequently in NYC. People still go to theaters to see movies. Theaters are often full weeks after a film’s release date. I love this about living…

    Y’all have got to check this out. The sodium content alone is astounding if you can get beyond the calories and the fat. And we wonder why Americans are getting fatter? This is insane!
