Rooster Sauce.

True that.

How much should I get?

However much you're comfortable giving? Probably not more than $100, because you wouldn't want your whole wardrobe to be Old Navy. Unless you can use the giftcard at their other stores (Gap/Banana) also. Less than $20 would be ridiculous. But then, I don't think I've ever bought gifts for cousins, so... (Though none of them are younger enough than me that it would've made much sense, either)

Went to grocery store! Put laundry in! Now to decide if it makes sense to head over to get a pedicure. Possibly they're booked up.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Maxim is commemorating the tenth anniversary of The Wire's debut with some snippets from most of the people on the show.

Andre Royo: They called me and told me I got the part of Bubbles, and my wife got excited. “Oh, shit! You got the part!” Packing her bag for L.A., and I’m like, “Nah, nah, we filming in Baltimore.” And she unpacked real quickly: “I’ll see you when you come home.”

Can't decide if I should do $50 or $100.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I'd say $50 if it can only be used at Old Navy, but maybe $100 if it can cross over to the sister stores.

Thanks for the congrats. I just need to make it through the test (typically 4 hours). We start and end each group class with kneeling and meditating for a few minutes. At the end of today's class, when I opened my eyes after meditating, I had the testing card in front of me. I'm still shocked. Last time I talked with my sensei about testing, we were talking August. Not in two weeks.

Then there is the flip side. I told K-Bug and she said "Oh, I knew about that".

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ooh, good luck, Suzi!

Congratulations and good luck, Suzi.

This video was made for August - which is National Sneak a Zucchini on your Neighbor's Porch Month. It's what to do when you've STILL got zucchini left and made zucchini everything you can think of and don't want any more.

And it was for Spin-Off Magazine.

Is it cheating if your neighbors are also splitting a CSA share with you?

I'm sure I've said this here before, but I totally figured out what to do with them! Grate and freeze them immediately, and then sneak them into everything all winter, Jessica Seinfeld-style.

It's especially nice to be able to be able to hit that milestone so soon after the surgery.

I cleaned the motherfucking house. Well, vacuumed and mopped and all the couch slipcovers are laundering right now. Still need to wipe down the bathroom fixtures and dust, but...I always need to do that.

Eating an empanada and then heading over a couple doors to see the prep for the "I hate the 80s" night or somesuch. Sarah and her friends go every year and go all out. Aaand I might be a little buzzed. See, I maintain that if you have to clean house in the summer and it's towards the end of the day, you might as wel have a refreshing beverage in hand. I didn't water down the margarita quite as much as I thought. Whoopsie!
