EmilyPosts: Soup's On: Creamy Tomato-Balsamic Soup →
emilyposts:
Is anyone tracking how many soups have the word “creamy” in the title this year? But they are just SO GOOD! And this one has some seriously awesome ingredients. I remember bragging about the crab soup, but this one rivals it big time. Something about it is just so fun to make. And the calories?…
Reblogging so I don’t forget about it…

Someone has to tell her that just because surgeons made her *look* 25, that she is not, In fact, 25 again…

Look, I’m getting protein AND pouring money into the local economy!
This is actually pretty cool!

Every holiday, my mom whips up a gigantic pot of Crab and Corn Bisque. To put the experience in simple terms, it’s heaven. Well color me surprised when I found out our beloved family recipe is in fact from Weight Watchers and isn’t bad for you. I mean look, I think you all know I don’t care all…

Went to Babbo tonight. Probably the best pasta I’ve ever had. For what was likely the second time in my life, I enjoyed Italian wines. And our waiter tied it all together perfectly, suggesting that we basically make our own pasta tasting from the a la carte menu after we asked about about doing…

And, thank you 1 year UD electrical engineering!
TV fixed!
(of course it has nothing to do with my EE prowress - rather my stubbornness and pulling of plugs and cleaning out of the dust… I’m sure we’re on borrowed time at this point, but that’s ok - still a win.)

Mortgage documentation stress… I did something in November that, in hindsight, wasn’t even close to worth it due to the documentation nightmare it is causing.
Worked 11.5 hours with only enough of a break to run and grab a sandwich which was eaten at my desk.
Am hearing that my ~4 year old tv is fried. Irrationally sad as I always am when things that were gifts fail earlier than...

This Saturday, in conjunction with the celebration of my 36th birthday (Christ, I’m old), I shall finally cross that most revered of craft beer thresholds: I shall become a Pony All-American.
For the uninitiated, this means I’ve had 100 unique beers across my visits to The Pony Bar. It’s taken my…

Save the Internet
feinsodville:
Don’t you think Tumblr should stop deleting the blogs of people who say mean things about Julia Allison before they start protesting against censorship on the Internet?
Just a thought.

– Mark Wahlberg tells “Men’s Journal” how 9/11 would have gone down differently if he had been on his schedule flight, which crashed into the World Trade Center. Uh. (via washingtonpoststyle)
thanks for that, marky mark
Aw, someone needs to tell marky mark that life isn’t a mark wahlberg...
Ghosts or old age eyes?
I’ve had trouble going to bed lately because, if I’m not totally exhausted, my eyes (or the paranormal universe) play tricks on me… My eyes show what can only be described as eel-like smoke plumes up near the ceiling… Maybe like harry potter death eaters? Regardless, tonight they were accompanied by what appeared to be a closing door, despite the fact that this door...
La. official wants to ban pajamas in public →

“It’s pajama pants today; next it will be underwear tomorrow,” said a Louisiana politician who wants to ban the wearing of pajamas outside of the home.
First they came for the snuggies…
It’s very fortunate that I don’t live in Louisiana…

Veggie Life: DIY Juice Cleanse →
veggielife:
Let me clarify something before I get going:
I think cleanses are BS
You do not need to fast or drink some gross concoction to “detox” your body. Your body does that on its own. You have organs that detox like it’s their job (because it is.)
I do not think juice fasts or cleanses are a healthy…
After some particularly bad eating over the last few months, I was seriously...
Exquisite Pizza Sauce
kimbaland:
In response to my garlic story, twohippiechic wanted the pizza sauce recipe. It’s from allrecipes, but I leave out a few things out that I think makes it better.
[P.S. The Giant did have garlic back in stock when Eric went shopping 2 days ago.]
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
6 fluid ounces warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon minced...

brewyork:
We knew we’d eventually start to reap the benefits of Brooklyn Brewery’s recent expansion of their facility in Williamsburg, we just didn’t know when… until now.
A few big announcements came yesterday about their 2012 lineup of beers, which includes a new year-round beer, a new spring seasonal, a new canned beer, and the first of the Brewmaster’s Reserve Series beers for the year.

On Giving Good Advice
lebaneseblonde:
Her: “You are right. Why is your head on so straight and mine is so screwed up?
Me: “Because none of this is happening to ME!”
That is, perhaps, the truest statement in the universe…
umcanyounot:
I can’t believe you guys didn’t tell me about this.
I also can’t believe someone allowed her to adopt a dog.
“Things are starting to look up.”
Wait, what???? We had to be investigated by body cavity search* and allow for home visits to adopt a dog but Casey Anthony gets one??? What.the.actual.fuck? *only a very slight exaggeration… They stopped only just short of...
