Soup-tastic Adventures: My adventures in soup
I love soup. Like, really really love it. I could eat it for every meal, every day of the week. And any kind of soup too--I don't think I've met a soup I didn't like. (Well, maybe if it was made with beets. But you never know!) The problem is I'm always so busy I never have a chance to cook for myself. I often find myself turning to canned chicken noodle soup from Cambells. Without a doubt, that's my comfort food and I'll never tire of it, but it's so much more fun to make your own! So I've decided to challenge myself. Each week I will make a new soup. I have tons of cookbooks to scour, so finding recipes shouldn't be a problem. I'll post my adventures here, and hopefully I'll inspire someone else! (FYI: I started this little project during the first few days of October, so these first few posts will be catch-up. Plus, I didn't think to take pictures until recently, so for now most will be picture-less.)McChrystal Doesn’t Get It—Does Obama?
Long, but worth the effort (I think) By Scott Ritter There is a curious phenomenon taking place in the American media at the moment: the lionization of Gen. Stanley McChrystal, the American military commander in Afghanistan. Although he has taken a few lumps for playing politics with the White House, McChrystal has generally been sold to the American public as a “Zen warrior,” a counterinsurgency genius who, if simply left to his own devices, will be able to radically transform the ongoing debacle that is Afghanistan into a noble victory that will rank as one of the greatest political and military triumphs of modern history.Ted Kennedy - Remembering the Real Deal
http://www.truthdig.com/report/item/20090826_remembering_the_real_deal/ By Robert Scheer The light has gone out, and with it that infectious warm laugh and intensely progressive commitment of the best of the Kennedys. Not, at this point, to take anything away from the memory of his siblings—Bobby, whom I also got to know, was pretty terrific in his last years—but Sen. Ted Kennedy was the real deal.Haul: Shoppers Drug Mart!
Hi ladies,
Let me start of by laying on the blame... Jessiebanana! You had to go and make a blog post about this great YouTuber, gossmakeupartist.
The Love Party
http://www.nytimes.com/2009/06/25/opinion/25collins.html?emc=eta1 By GAIL COLLINS On behalf of the people of Illinois and New York, I’d like to thank South Carolina for giving us Mark (“I’ve been unfaithful to my wife”) Sanford. Finally, a governor who’s weirder than Rod Blagojevich and less responsible than Eliot Spitzer. Really, we’re extremely relieved.Dawn of Defiance Campaign: Episode II Released

Escape to Nature’s Sanctuary
Autumn’s golden hues set the tone for an exhilarating outdoor adventure. Fall foliage is at its peak. Why not treat yourself to a long hike under an autumn canopy of red, orange and gold?they say third time's a charm...
If you haven't guessed by the title's name, I tried making my 'disaster' again yesterday and once again, it didn't come out as expected. My hubby was full of suggestions and encouragement when the first disaster came out of the oven, so armed with those, I tried this once again. Let me start with telling you what I envision.Website of the Day: Inkubook
Even though all those photo-hosting sites make it really easy for me to upload and share my photos with friends and family, it really doesn't help me stave off complaints from my grandparents. Since they still subscribe to the old-school photo album ways of the past (which is totally appropriate — they are in their 80s!), I can't help but feel guilty that they can't hop online and check out the pics from my latest cross-country adventure.
So instead of printing out photo after photo (and wasting money on photo paper, ink, or printing fees), why not take the best of your photos and make them into a glossy, hardbound, and professional-looking photo book?
