My co-worker made really cute turkey cookies. They were very tasty. Better than a real turkey, even.

Me, P & the fab Nikk Smith are going to check out the Athens Indie Craftstravaganzaa this weekend. According to the website the Craftstravaganzaa is Athens’ largest craft fair. It’s being held, as the flier states, Saturday, November 22, from 10:00 am - 6:00 pm on the corner of Clayton and Pulaski Streets. We’re gonna check it out around 2:00 pm. Maybe we’ll see you there |

I just read the title of Britney Spears’ new album as “Carcus” (yes, I realize that is an incorrect spelling of carcass) and thought “That’s appropriately titled. Strange, but appropriate.” Then I realized it was not “Carcus” but “Circus.” Less strange perhaps, but still, very appropriate. Just thought I’d share. |

I’m a real stickler for avoiding waste. I try not to waste paper, energy, water, soap, shampoo, whatever. Along those same lines (and very similar to my chicken explosion story last week), I tend not to waste food. I don’t throw away left overs. I take them to work for lunch or eat them for dinner later in the day. The idea of putting half of something in the trash just drives me insane. Perhaps it’s because I’m cheap, but I prefer to think that it’s because I’m ecologically & morally conscious. Yes, morally conscious. Wasting food seems to defy what I consider moral and good. I’d rather take my left overs and offer them to a homeless person (yeah, I’d do it. And no, I don’t find it offensive.) than trash it.
However, I’m beginning to wonder, what the hell is wrong with me? Am I wrong? Should I have thrown my Mexican leftovers last night rather than saving them for lunch today? After the microwave debacle, I’m inclined to say yes. Taco Salads are NOT meant to be reheated. This may seem obvious to most, as they contain lettuce & other “best-served-cold” items (sour cream, guac, etc.). Hell, the name even says “SALAD!” So, defying common sense, I heated my taco salad up moments ago, anticipating a tasty treat. Um… needless to say, it was really more like a brown lump contained in something like a greasy, wet, paper bag. Then… then there’s my cheese dip. Cheese dip, if heated for more than 3.76 seconds without stirring, will bubble up into a hot, steamy volcano of dairy goodness. I mean, it’s all good, right? Except that it flows over the edges of the bowl and covers the glass plate in the microwave. (which you have to clean up immediately because you’re at work and leaving it would be so wrong.)
But at the end of it, I’m still eating my brown lump filled paper bag and scraping the milimeter of cheesy deliciousness out of the bowl. And dammit, I’d do it all over again.

I just got through viewing this amazing set of photos on flickr from a great photog. who had an inside look at the Obama Team throughout the entire election night. You can view the pics here. Whoever took these did such a wonderful job of capturing the emotional night for the whole family and campaign team. So cool!
