The Internet’s leading authority on radicalized geese
Yesterday, I did my first Grouse Grind of the season! ((Yes, I know it’s September. Your point?)) I was supposed to do it with my friend Lianna, but some work came up for her and she couldn’t make it. And since when has a little thing like that gotten in my way? As I was […] →Read more
I have long wanted to try making cinnamon buns, but to be honest, I’ve been kind of scared that they’d be a disaster.

In my Google Reader, along with feeds of all the blogs I read ((and a bunch that I don’t. Note to self: clean up your Google Reader!)), I have the feed of a Flickr search for Quatchi, the most adorable of the Olympic mascots. During the run up to, and for the duration of, the […] →Read more
