Daily Dose #018: Turkey (The Country, Not The Bird)

There are a ton of stops on my list of places to visit someday.  Near the top is Turkey – specifically Istanbul.   (Cue the catchy-ass They Might Be Giants tune:  ”Now it’s Istanbul not Constantinople, now it’s Istanbul not Constantinople…”)  The colors and patterns that are present in just about every photo I’ve seen from this country make me totally awestruck.  [...]

Daily Dose #017: Doodling

Doodling is awesome, right?  If you don’t think so, you should probably check out this link.  Or do a Google image search.  Your face will melt! This stuff is art, not child’s play.  But it’s awesome because it can be whatever you want - yet it doesn’t have to be anything.  (My other fave in the link [...]

Daily Dose #014: Pljeskavica!

Mmmmm, I’m hungry!  We’ve just procured tickets to visit Serbia in May and it’s going to be a long wait until I can get my paws on my favorite thing to eat there:  pljeskavica (pronounced “plee-es-ka-veet-sa”).  Basically it’s a gigantic hamburger.  I don’t claim to be a burger connoisseur by any means, but it’ll put [...]

Daily Dose #012: Closet Dreaming

Today’s dose is both awesome and not.  The old man and I are attending his company’s Christmas party tonight.  It’s 9:30 a.m. and I’m already panicking.  Well, technically I started panicking a few days ago.  What am I going to wear?  My closet and everything inside it is dull, old, worn, and too casual even [...]

Daily Dose #011: Wal-Mart Humor

A funny funny for this Thursday morning.  This snippet was found at Funny Newspaper Articles – Funny Jokes & Quotes.  Have a great day!

Daily Dose #010: Dessert Plates

From time to time, I’ll spy Rosanna dessert plates at T.J. Maxx, Marshall’s or Home Goods.  And I usually buy them, either for me or…ah, who am I kidding?  For me.  The next time they present themselves, however, I hope it’s this pattern that falls in my lap.  (And if it was in the clearance aisle, well, [...]
