BE MY FOLLOWER!

I have started a new blog; a blog with a little more of a direction, if you will. So, if I don't update THIS blog (and, let's face it....do I ever update?) it's probably because all of my energy is going into THIS BLOG!

Whoa! It's hard to grasp.

But, seriously, I will probably still do some paint drawings in this one.

Are tears hydrating? Can I drink them?

This morning was rough.

I was awake too early. Patrick left me to be "up early and productive" instead of laying in bed and complaining with me. I forgot my delicious left-overs in the fridge and I was late leaving the house.

Oh joyful Thursday.

The tears are so abundant you cannot see my body

Part of the reason I was late leaving the house was my need to take a special coffee mug to work. I knew that I needed a pick-me-up and cocaine was just not an option. I decided to double my dose of caffeine and drink it in style!


Isn't he adorable?!?! Don't you love him?!? THANKS MOM! There is absolutely nothing to be but cheerful when sipping hot coffee out of this little guy's skull. 

So, my morning progressed and I was still not feeling quite myself. My owl mug---let's call him Glen---was still working his magic, but he seemed so lonely; especially after I finished drinking my 14 cups of coffee.

I wasn't going to eat that Tangelo anyway, I am still too distraught about my leftovers. And I have an almost full bottle of Thousand Island dressing in the mini-fridge. It's VEGAN. Gross, right? But I love it. 

Pretty soon I will take a field trip to the Post Office and the Public Library; this day is already looking up!

Is Meatless Monday a real thing?

Regardless of whether or not it is, I love any excuse to cook with a theme! Although, technically, every day is a meatless day in my world---of enchantment and intrigue. Anyway, last night I decided to roll up my sleeves and make Beef-less Brisket courtesy of The Shannons!

This recipe was time intensive, but super simple; and it was so tasty that neither Patrick nor I minded that we didn't eat dinner until 9 PM. Besides, dinner and Tron (the original) is a fantastic combination ANY time of day!


We rounded out the meal with Brussel sprouts and crusty bread. I am thrilled that there was enough to take to work today, too! 

Now, what to make for Meatless Tuesday...
