the mandatory end of september post

Another month in 2011 has been quickly spent, and I am eager to just type this one out before enjoying a little bit of rum and OJ.
Along with the usual forty I knock out working for the man, I have been keeping busy. My weekends have been booked in advanced lately in order to accomplish [...]

the five years of MoSo + breakfast for dinner

On this day in 2006, the first post to Modern Soapbox was published. I was in a similar state of mind then, but the years have gone by fast. I was younger and had more energy to be more prolific. I posted more often compared to nowadays where I’m averaging around an update or two [...]

This semester is almost over. I [...]

the cordial cherries

To me, cordial cherries for Valentine’s Day are like Cadbury eggs for Easter, fireworks for Independence Day, and candy corn for Halloween. These confections will make your blood sugar spike and your teeth ache. Yes, I bought a couple boxes from Queen Anne. For that, I apologize.
I broke the month’s posting streak yesterday. Some weekends [...]
