I’m just about over Halloween. We live at the end of a dead-end street at the bottom of a hill (read: no trick-or-treaters).
I don’t have the time, patience, or inclination to get into shape enough for the typical “Slutty ________________” costume.
That whole zombie fetish y’all have going on? And that [...]

Food insecurity has been a large, looming issue for me throughout the summer (and it’s an ongoing issue). I qualify for food stamps, I had stamps and things were OK – and then it all went down the toilet.

Hey, have y’all met Heather at Home Ec 101 yet? She’s my favorite Homemaking blogger at the moment. Why? BECAUSE I SAID SO THAT’S WHY!
*ahem*
Anyways…I bought a BIG pack of chicken thighs on sale and then decided that I didn’t want the same ol’ same ol’ for dinner. I adore chicken [...]

So waaaay back in February, I bought the house from my Mama.
Toward the first of the month, I read a post on Lifehacker ( Remove Rust from Cast Iron Cookware in your Oven ) and realized I hadn’t run the oven cleaning cycle since the paperwork was signed.
After reading that [...]
