    Tuesdays with Murray will be up in a few. (I’m working out of the house at the moment and am therefore away from the good stuff.) In the meantime, I wanted to share my latest lollipop flavor: The Flootbeer Roat! (The name was taken from my goofy father who has used this term since he…

    I wrote the post below instead of doing what I should have done which was to call the establishment directly and ask them about the sign. Instead, I did what I can’t stand and got passive-aggressive about it on the Internet. (I am currently punching myself in the face for this, btw.) I’ve decided to…

    Today I ran in the JP Morgan Chase Run as One 4 miler. It was a short one. (I’m starting small this time. Several years ago I signed up for the NYC Marathon and got hurt trying to train. Stupid.) But I have to tell you: I’m pretty proud of myself. It turns out, I’m…

    I don’t write much about Emory for probably pretty obvious reasons. He’s no longer a baby—he’s not even a toddler anymore—he’s a little boy. That doesn’t mean I don’t want to write about him. There are so many stories I want to share daily; stories I have actually written but never push live. I just…

    I met this little feller on Saturday. He was orphaned, but some caring humans took him in. Once he’s rehydrated and old enough to eat on his own, he’ll be rereleased back out into his home. I hope to have more information on this little dude soon. But totally wanted to share just how small…

    Emory and Murray have become even closer, something I didn’t think was possible. Yet. Here we are. I am often too late at filming their interactions because I’m usually too busy enjoying them to run for the camera—I don’t want to miss anything! But I’m trying to have it more handy. We’ll see! Anyway, here’s…

    I love chai. My love for chai is actually why I took up candy-making again a while back. I wanted to make a chai lollipop for myself. Unfortunately, I realized right away that I wouldn’t gain instant gratification; I’d have to make an extract first. So, I revisited my homemade whole wheat chai muffin recipe and…

    I’m in a coffee shop at the moment. I have roughly 50 minutes before I have to return home to Emory. Anyway, I took a moment to check Facebook and saw that one of my family members posted a picture of my grandma. My grandmother died when I was about 17, which is how old…

    It may seem like I haven’t been baking much lately. But that’s not the case at all, my friends! I’ve actually been in the kitchen more so than ever. You see, I’ve been making lollipops. The whole adventure came on suddenly but has proven to be rather amazing. And, get this! I’m going to be…

    We got a new Kodak HD Zi8 so I decided to give it a try today. In typical Michele fashion, I haven’t read the directions and probably won’t. But I reckon I’ll figure out how to use it eventually. Anyway, here’s a short (uneventful) video of how Emory often feeds Murray (and others) at dinner…
