Quick healing, sj!

I made veg hash with fried eggs on top and it tasted really good. Since I have a good non-stick pan I only used a tablespoon of olive oil to cook the whole thing. (So I don't feel guilty because I didn't poach the eggs.)

NYT had a similar suggestion for cleaning out your crisper bin, and I'm trying to be less carby/more veggie.

I had broccoli, red onions, summer squash and zucchini chopped up small and used paprika and a bunch of other peppery things to bring up the flavor. Properly seasoned, of course. Keeping Samin in mind I did hit the veggies with a bit of lemon juice.

Anyway, vegetable and protein success!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I'm sorry, sj. I hope knowing that helps you recover?

Green tea ice cream for breakfast is a good thing. Recommend. Now I feel compelled to have a coffee milkshake for lunch.

Thanks, apparently I had pneumonia when I went to the ER last week where they failed to tell me and failed to give my steroids to treat it.

Bad ER!

Huh, I thought Target was easing away from the gendered kids' clothes.

It's a onesie ... aren't they pretty much by definition for anyone? (I mean anyone small enough to wear one)

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Dana, happy birthday! Your present is your own clothes!

sj, UGH.

Jesse, obviously that onesie isn't pink. OBVIOUSLY.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I mean, I know the blue ones that say "Daddy's little ladykiller" or whatever are for boys.

I also thought target was moving away from boy vs girl clothes.

I'm feeling exhausted today and I don't know why. I slept in! I went for a walk and it's gorgeous out! I did not get my hair cut, which I do need to do. But mostly I want to nap. Worried I'm getting sick, hanging out with a three year old and a bunch of travel and stuff—don't wanna be sick in Paris!

Yikes sj, may your breathing tubes clear quickly!

Is it wrong that I want there to be a butch lesbian chic version of these for girls?
