Yo, 2011!

Well. That was a quick year. But now it's Onward, Agnostic Soldiers. Ha.

So yeah, I got some ideas for 2011. Here are two:

Closet Makeovers: I have about 10 closets in my house and none of them are living up to functionality standards right now. But I have some ideas. Oh, I have ideas. So I thought I would tackle one closet a month until they all meet my magical mystical perfect closet standards. And FFS, if I can't handle finishing some closet makeovers, I should just cut my losses & sell this house. (Hahaha... it's funny cause it's true)

-365: Read that like: minus 365. I used to love stuff but now I hate stuff so I'm pledging to empty all the boxes and get rid of (at least) 1 thing everyday. Using the highly scientific donate, sell or toss method. And yes, sadly, there are at least 365 things in my home that I neither need nor want. Thus this little challenge.

"OOOHH, AAAHH," right?

But wait there's more!! Well, maybe. We'll see. But there's this for now & that's something. Hehehe...

hello

Try it (again). You might like it (this time).

So yesterday was one of those kinds of Mondays... the ones that are actually on Tuesday because you had a 3-day weekend. Ha. Anyway it was a crap day & as a result, I did not want to make dinner when I got home. You know those days. I had no idea what I had to eat at home after eating at restaurants all weekend... but then I remembered something that I had picked up on my last trip to the grocery. A bag of frozen Chipotle Roasted Sweet Potatoes & Vegetables by Alexia Foods.

It was pretty random for me... because I have not ever liked sweet potatoes. But the other day I ordered a pizza w/green peppers & mushrooms. And I didn't used to like those either. So what the hell, right? Plus, it had the word Chipotle in it & when has any food w/that word in it ever sucked?

Anyhoodle, this bag of frozen stuff had sweet potatoes, black beans, corn, onions, & red peppers and a bag of seasoned oil. It's super easy to make: heat up oil, dump bag in pan, cook for 8-10 min. So I did that. Then I added eggs. And some leftover shredded cheese.

OMFG. Dee-li-cious.

And now I like sweet potatoes. Sometimes that's just how it works w/me.

34 etc

So now that I'm no longer 33, does that mean I should start a new blog (again)? Heh.

I think I stay here for now... after all, that's why I added the "etc."

Kickstarter

Have you ever heard of Kickstarter? I hadn't until today. I LOVE the concept. People like you and me can help fund other people's creative projects. How fun! And a little like public tv/radio, you get little extras for pledging to a project. And you only pay if it reaches it's pre-determined goal. I learned about this project from swiss-miss and it was my first pledge:
