I finished Haruki Murakami’s What I Talk About When I Talk about Running on Tuesday, January 26, meaning I’m 26 days into my 365-day Book Challenge and have already checked two books off the list. This is good. But Murakami also wrote a little book called Kafka on the Shore, which Rob read last year [...]

I typically avoid talking about politics at all costs because that discussion, as President Obama said last night at the end of the State of the the Union Address, has become so divisive in our society. I hate that. I am a lover, I do not thrive on discord, and I hate it that we [...]

Yesterday, I promised to share two yummy recipes with you, Eierkuchen (best translated as “fluffy pancakes,” but literally “egg cakes”), and vanilla syrup. I just found another recipe that I’m going to share with you (I explain why in the Eierkuchen post), but I have decided to post only one recipe per post. That will [...]

When we were roommates, Beth always made homemade hummus. Liz always shares delicious, easy (i.e. simple [...]

Back when I started my Tuesday links posts, we lived in Germany and I had much more time for blogging than I do now. I mean, I could blog every evening if I wanted to, but I’m striving for more balance in my life. I have restarted blogging after taking a break, but I’ve decided [...]

When I started the Tuesdays with Linden’s Favorite Links series, we lived in Germany and I had much more time for blogging because our life was very simple. Now, things have pick up again and I am balancing several hats (or something like that), so I am trying to balance my interests. Blogging simply has [...]

I got so many great name suggestions for my new betta fish on the original blog post, via Twitter, and on Facebook, and if you know me, you know that I am terribly indecisive. I just can’t choose from all of these creative names, so again, I’m asking for your help! I’ve collected all of [...]

I love betta fish! I think they are so beautiful, all iridescent and colorful. Plus, they are easy to take care of and don’t require a lot of start-up capital (that is, you don’t need a huge fish tank with a filter). Plus, I can keep him on my desk. It gets lonely working from [...]
