Friday Shuffle – Whoring it Out to Everyone Edition. With Dots.
Posted by RobinMar 28
- You order any homemade dog biscuits or cat toys yet to support the Greater Akron Humane Society? Best get on it. I’m baking treats on Sunday and knitting kitty dim sum as fast as I can.
- Speaking of cooking, OtherRobin and I are officially up and running with our cooking blog. It’s called Frigidare Pair. It’s not all fancy and shit. It’s fun cooking. Really. We’re writing bunches about batch cooking – making a ton of stuff at the same time and freezing it for later. We’re also going to write about our virgin foray into the world of community support agriculture via Fair Shares. But I don’t have to tell you all of these, because I’m repeating what I’ve already written at Frigidare Pair. So go read it over there.
- Now that I’m food blogging, do you know what I’m doing for dinner? Sending Brian out for Greek carryout. It’s similar to my first catering job, when I made a bunch of fancy hors d’oeurves and had Hamburger Helper and bagged salad for dinner.
- No wildness is on the agenda for this weekend. We’re in need of an easy-going weekend at home, being domestic. I’m cooking (and creating fodder for the new blog). If the weather cooperates we’ll also be doing some yardwork because I’ve been possessed by Satan and have decided to do a little gardening this year.
- Never fear, for there’s a new adventures on the horizon. Thursday morning I’m hopping a bus to Chicago for a long weekend. Wilco stuff will be involved. So will Ethiopian food, a slumber party, knitting, Neti pots, and shuffling around the great big city.

Funny, as the only time I’ve ever had Ethiopian food was in Chicago seven years ago.
Bitchin’ shuffle!

Funny you should mention… Just yesterday, I was wondering about the whole Neti Pot idea. Seems like I remember reading about that before — I think this latest round of sniffling and sneezing has convinced me that I need to get one.

I’ve never had Ethiopian food but I’d like to. Wilco stuff — sounds like fun. Loved your shuffle.

I was just listening to Liquor Store yesterday, too. Wierd.
Every time you reference Neti Pots I think of Mah*na.

Congrats on the new blog. It looks great. I haven’t had Ethiopian food either, but I grew up around So. Grand, and there are some wonderful restaurants in that area.

I have a fledgling butterfly bush which I will trade for jeans. It was a new volunteer and flowered last year, so it should get to 4 or 5 feet this year. Please, I need it out of my garden!
I also have pumpkin seeds that are guaranteed to sprout.
