about me

Practically imperfect in every way. Start with a lot of silliness. Mix in some insecurities and a handful of awkwardness. Add a pound of naivety, innocence, and child-like wonderings. Blend well. Half-bake and top off with a sprinkle of imagination and dollop of dreams. It’s the recipe for me!

quote of the day

  • "Moral of the story: Do not look at the gap. The gap is the mind-killer. Remember how Wile E. Coyote never fell down until he saw the chasm? It’s just like that." --Taylor "Tei" Lindstrom, Rogue Ink

dumbass quote

  • "I think we have come to find out that the Education system, run by Liberal Hippies that really couldn't find any other job that allowed them so much time off, the ability to do drugs, and to spout their rhetoric is alive and well. It is teaching out kids things like 'Abortion is Good,' 'Government is Bad.' We have educators that, for the most part, don't teach to the subject, they teach to their beliefs. It is really sad, and even sadder when you see highly intelligent children buying into it." --Kelli

Jersey cows don’t say “moo”, they say “mmm!”

July 14, 2007

We’ve had our cow share for two weeks, and already we’ve had to purchase a second share. I’m curious how long we’ll last on two gallons of milk per week. I made two loaves of whole wheat bread today, and a small amount of homemade butter. Yummy! Tomorrow, I’m going to attempt to make yogurt. I haven’t gotten ambitious enough to try to make cheese yet.

I’ve been taking the cream from the top of our milk and using it for ice cream, butter, and to flavor our coffee. It works well, but it leaves us with less milk to drink. The farm has recently started offering individual containers of cream. It’s thick, like paste. I may try a pint of it just to see what kind of results I get with my butter.

about this blog

It’s the spark of an idea that hits me unexpectedly. It’s the silly wonderings I have after a whirlwind of thoughts. It’s about creativity, inspiration, and imagination. But sometimes, it’s just about eating noodles.
