Advice blogger, soon-to-be-author. You may remember me as CAwkward on that other site, but I have reclaimed my full title and powers! Here to make new internets to push the bad internets down.
May my late mother-in-law’s curse land at long last.

I’m in central Massachusetts for a few days. I’m 60 points ahead in the game of rummy my mom & will play for the next three days. My dad’s VHS collection is still dadding it up.

“Churu” maps perfectly to “Hero” in songs if you happen to be singing to cats who are holding out for a hero who will feed them a Churu.

I got the bean cult cookbook for Christmas and now I’ve got the big green pot out & am taking her for a spin with some (not cult-sourced) cannellinis that will become a a garlicky dip & some pasta e fagioli for dinner later.

I recently caught up with my first ever friend (pictured circa 1976, she’s got the cheeks, I’ve got the hair) and it feels great. The things she remembers!

My late mother-in-law made us Christmas ornaments for years, I think we can agree that this is some of her best work. Miss her.
