Money Matters!

By jesser | Published: 8:04 am

I was surfing around on MSN (they have some of the most interesting and useful articles, I swear) when I came across this little gem. It's a lovely article about saving $$ on a shoestring budget, though I think the tips are applicable to just about everyone. The article talks about little tricks, tips and [...]

Books Galore

By jesser | Published: 7:12 am

As part of my 101, I made the commitment to read 11 books I've never read before. It seems kinda silly, but this is a pretty big thing for me since when I fall in love with a book, I read it over and over … in fact, I have a select set of books [...]

Off into the Sunset

By jesser | Published: 9:09 am

On a whim, I decided to subscribe to Sunset. This magazine appeals to me greatly since it focuses on life in the West (PS: don't ever tell a Denverite that we live in the “midwest” … I've lived in the Midwest and Denver ain't it). That's great for us denizens of the Mile High City, [...]

Frosty Morning

By jesser | Published: 10:07 am

Well the ground was all frosty this morning as I drove to work. I could see my breath when I got out of the car to drop Loki off at Doggy Daycare. And now I'm sitting at my desk, still wearing my jacket, with my space-heater going full-blast. Everytime I have to move away from [...]

Last night we had my parents and sister over for dinner. It's feeling very fall around here, and so were we, so we made a very fall meal. We made a spinach salad with some cranberries and pine nuts and cucumbers (dressing of your choice), Pasta with Spicy Sausage and Mixed Wild Mushrooms and we [...]

Bird Flu

By jesser | Published: 7:01 am

Don't get me wrong. I'm not in a Bird Flu panic. I'm sure there's the possibility for danger (there's always the possibility for danger), but until the thing mutates and start spreading between humans, I won't panic. They say the thing's responding to Tamiflu, which reduces the symptoms and lengths of the disease. So demand [...]

Shattered

By jesser | Published: 8:57 am

Well my morning has gotten off to an interesting start. I got to my desk this morning and I noticed that I hadn't put my water glass in the dishwasher before I left yesterday. So I filled my bowl with my oatmeal packet and took it and the glass into the kitchen. I set the [...]
