An Antidote to Serious Gift Guides
Posted in friends, just plain silly, links on Dec 16th, 2008
The brilliant authoress at Just Another Ink-Stained Wretch has a cure to well-meaning, tasteful, serious Holiday Gift Guides. Almost every day she posts a link to another ill-concieved, far-out, or just plain disgusting item that might make you the talk of this year’s Yankee Swap. I can guarantee that if nothing else, you’ve never seen [...]
Everyone deserves a weekend
Posted in Better Half, Deep Thoughts, bipolar, friends, links on Dec 7th, 2008
Last night we babysat for our friend Senor Sinister and his Lovely Wife– we were over there about a month ago for Senor Sinister’s birthday brunch, and as always, we enjoyed hanging out with them and their children, the Banana and the Baby. We’ve known the Banana since birth, the Baby, too, and you’ve never [...]
Thanks
Posted in Better Half, Deep Thoughts, friends, good things on Nov 27th, 2008
I’m thankful, or trying to be– for meds that work sometimes and make a big difference when they do, for a workplace where I’m treated like an adult, for food to cook for my loved ones, for loved ones to be aggravated by occasionally and to laugh with the rest of the time. I’m thankful [...]
Friends who blog
Posted in friends, good things, links on Nov 3rd, 2008
We bloggers have bloggy friends (i.e., friends who we make through blogs), non-bloggy friends (i.e., people we know from “real life”) and now, friends who blog. Real life friends, now new and improved, with blogs. My section mate and good friend from law school has begun his blog, Senor Sinister’s Low Key Plan for World [...]
Craftin’ ain’t easy
Posted in Better Half, friends, good things, links, photos, sparkly on Nov 3rd, 2008
The BH’s colleague, Amy, who I’ve written about before, makes beautiful mosaic mirrors, boxes, and other crafty things under the name Riverview Crafters, is hosting a craft show at her home November 15, 2-8 pm. There will also be woven, leather, ceramic, and other textile and printed crafts. The Better Half, because he is a [...]
Thanks so much to all who came to Saturday’s social. Lots of laughs, way too much ice cream, and the weather held out. I’ve got some pictures and obviously a more detailed story up my sleeve, but am going to be busy at work today. More soon. (And perhaps I can even get PictoBrowser to [...]
June 28, that is. Just a reminder. Here’s the original announcement. I am still checking out picnic sites and places with parking. Details, soon, I promise! In the meantime, stock up on beach blankets, sunscreen, and charge those camera batteries!
Revolufried, poodelate, and vacake
Posted in flickr, friends, just plain silly, photos on May 26th, 2008
Poodelate. Well, it made sense at the time.
Revolufried? We couldn’t decide if it meant some newfangled frier machine that revolves, or some wonderful new fried food that was so revolutionary that it was, well, revolufried! (And really, it’s all my fault, because I was the one who played Wii on the second turn and got [...]
Green Couscous Salad

Green Couscous Salad, originally uploaded by BipolarLawyerCook.
I made this for a BBQ our friends A. and P. threw. Quite yummy– we chowed it all down while the boys went out for more propane.
Take some israeli couscous (pastina would work fine, too), cooked 15 min. in olive oil and double the amount of water. Put [...]
