The One With All The Hot Sauce

On 01/17/2013 · Leave a Comment · In boston, challenge, COOKING, event, recipe, tips

This is what it looks like when everyone in a room is standing around eating ice cream and hot sauce.

The Heaven and Hell Takedown occurred back in August, but five months later seems like a good time to talk about it, right?

We competed in the hot sauce [...]

Cat-Proofing Windows

On 11/27/2012 · 2 Comments · In APARTMENT, jelly, san francisco, tips

A weird thing about Bay Area apartments is that most of the windows don’t have screens. Our landlord explained that they don’t need insect screens here because there are no bugs to keep out.

When we were staying with my sister in the East Bay, we had to close the windows once it got dark [...]

North of the Wall

On 08/02/2012 · Leave a Comment · In funny, jelly, POTPURRI, tips

There are plenty of nights when Justin stays up much later than me. We call late night shifts in this apartment “defending the Wall.” White walkers have nothing on our ferocious feline. While I sleep in a room with a door that doesn’t close all the way, Justin defends my [...]

DIY T-Shirt Necklace

On 05/31/2012 · 2 Comments · In crafts, gift idea, tips

Maybe this has been done before a hundred times on the internet already, but it was news to me. And to Martha, apparently.

I saw a pin for a recycled craft T-shirt necklace c/o Martha Stewart and [...]

Bottled Emotions & Pet Tags

On 05/04/2012 · 1 Comment · In jelly, shopping, tips

I went two whole posts without sharing a picture of my cat.

This is what happens when you bottle things up for too long:

You get a whole post only about cats.

He got a new tag. Well, he got 2 new tags before I found this [...]

Apartment Purgatory: Board Game Boxes

On 04/18/2012 · 7 Comments · In APARTMENT, crafts, games, tips

We are living in a strange phase of apartment purgatory. It’s weird knowing that we could move to the West Coast as soon as a few months from now, but maybe not for a year. We have had moving to California on the agenda since graduation, but now it’s getting closer to becoming reality. This [...]

And a Nuthatch in a Paper Tree

On 04/02/2012 · Leave a Comment · In animals, APARTMENT, crafts, decor, NATURE, plants, tips

I grew a tree in my living room.

It’s not a plant, but it stretches high and wide in my living room just the same. I made it out of contact paper (because that’s what I make everything out of) and I am so pleased with the outcome.

I’ve seen trees [...]

Grilled Cheese Sandwich Bar

On 03/23/2012 · 4 Comments · In COOKING, meal-planning, POTPURRI, recipe, tips

This post is going to be really cheesy.

One of my college girlfriends was visiting from the West coast, so I had a few people over for dinner last weekend. I planned a grilled cheese sandwich bar where everyone could construct their own sammies and I grilled them all on the griddle.

It [...]

Jailbreak Cat

On 03/15/2012 · 4 Comments · In APARTMENT, crazy, funny, jelly, tips

We took Jelly to get his rabies vaccine updated last weekend. That means we have owned and operated this feline for almost a whole year!

These past 10 months (since adopting him in May) have been filled with laughter and fear. Every day is spent wondering what trouble Jelly will [...]
