I’m not scared. You’re scared. You thought I was crying? What? NO. It’s because I just thought of something really funny and my uncontrollable laughter is oozing out of my eyes in the form of salty liquid. In fact, I’m so freakin happy that I just did a jig in my kitchen [oh my god …

Happy New Year – A New Kind of Era
I’ve decided it’s a new era. Things are gonna be different. You’ll see. Let’s pretend that Cooking Light Magazine is interviewing me. I heard narcissism is trending. Cooking Light: Wow, Deanna.

Old Pumpkin Rice With Expired Black Beans and Never Used Schezwan Sauce
It’s pretty darn official. The votes have been tabulated. The ballots have been recounted 37 times (we think there was some voter fraud). But the where-to-move indecision madness has come to an end.

I Miss You (a toothless confessional)
I’m still alive and kicking. Actually, no – I haven’t kicked anything. I should kick something or someone. Surely someone deserves a kick. Ooo…my dentist! Good for nothing *&%$!!

Fed Up Challenge Diary – Days 2-5
We’re knee deep in sugar free awesomeness. Are we loving it? We’re loving it. We’re also big fat liars. How’s everyone doing? Are you cranky? Do you have headaches? Do your ears hang low? Do they wobble to and fro? It’s probably just me. As a food blogger, it takes a lot for me to …
