I did this… FOREVER… ago. Then I completely… FORGOT… about it. I was going to erase some pictures so I could take some new ones and I ran across a ton of things that are already done. You know what that means? Less work. And that made me so excited that I decided to start [...]
Goood Friday everyone! I hope your week was well! TCTICF (the cheapest thing I could find): Now, early on in developing this blog I was like, “Heck no I wont do no product placement, this blog aint for the man”. You see readers, one of the whole reasons I started this thing is because when [...]
Are you surprised that I procrastinated on posting this? My college professors wouldn’t be. Because, I was bad about that. Therefore, it took me 5.5 years to get a bachelors degree. A liberal arts bachelors degree. When people would ask me, “Corinne, what the H.E. double hockey sticks are you going to do with a [...]
Good afternoon/monday kids! I’ve got the big coffee mug out because I’ve been hard at work (not real work, blog work). I’ve been dreaming up things to bake for my roommate who is trying to become a vegan. I made those grenache tartlettes this weekend for both of my roomies and found out that one [...]
It may sound like a term you would use to describe something in poetry but the 5 gyres are more depressing than a lunch date with Edgar Allen Poe in the dead of January, in Fargo, North Dakota. You may have heard about the huge swirling island of garbage out in the pacific ocean that [...]
Remember that post about using too much laundry detergent that I wrote last week? Remember this quote from The Wall Street Journal?

The agitation of washing machines often [...]
Look! That chicken still has it’s beak. Lucky chicken. I won’t be posting pictures of ones that don’t have their beaks, because I’m not PETA. And thank goodness for that. Yesterday, I passed a pro-life rally (you know, the pictures of dead babies and tape over the mouth thing that those folks do with their [...]
In my last post I made a comment about the fact that many of us use far too much laundry detergent. Allow me to elaborate. So let’s travel back in time… It’s two weeks ago and everyone is in awe because Method came out with their sleek line of pump detergents that limit our bad [...]
I’m extremely late getting things ready for Valentines day and (yikes!) I’m in a long distance relationship. It’s a long way up to Minnesota from FayAr, so I’m sure whatever care package I end up throwing together will be a day late (and a few cookies short) for Valentines day. After all the “hinting” I’ve [...]
