fall is rad.

it doesn't matter that i keep neglecting this blog, life will go on. not like that crap celine dion song but whatevs.

if you think i'm going to post some fall foilage or dogs in halloween costumes then you've got another thing coming. unless i saw one of those hot dog dogs wearing a hot dog costume then i would DEFINITELY post  that. homeboy. but my excitement for fall can be summed up in a few (maybe more than a few) choice pics.

frye boots. 

these are gorgeous.

beyond comfortable.

and i may have to sign over nelson or my right kidney for medical research to pay for them.

bored to death makes me laugh to death.

if nothing else read jonathan ames if for some ungodly reason you don't enjoy schwarzman, galifianakis or danson.

what, you crazy?

apple pie smoothie.

wait this is a food blog and i'm rambling on about tv and boots?
ms. how sweet nailed this. and has way better pics and instructions.

so basically: chop up an apple, spice it, roast it, toss in blender or other blend-type device with some yogurt, milk and ice. garnish with ginger cat cookies. meow.

you can thank me now.

i made a quilt! 

well it's more of a mat-sized quilt since i made this for my niece in two days.
an entire baby quilt is impossible to make in two days if you want to say, sleep?
btw nelson loves when i do last minute projects and stay very calm.

i didn't use a pattern or measure the patches, so they're sort of uneven.

that being said, it's pretty damn cute.

hope to make a people-sized version this fall.

more tv. peter krause-- you're oh so dreamy. 

and now you're dating lauren graham? can't think of anyone better.

watch parenthood.

although i'm starting to realize that most actors playing parents in their late 30s/early 40s with teens and young-ins very rarely even have kids in real life.

yeah, yeah, i  get it. they're ACTING. right. but still, it makes these shows seem more unrealistic beyond the whole 'i have a huge loft in nyc and i work in a coffeeshop' unrealistic vibe. right?

scary t-shirt that doesn't resemble fall at all!

but i think it's hilarious and was purchased this fall.

so there.

healtified carrot cookies topped with sea salt.

this was a successful experiment.

i will try to dig up the recipe that i wrote down in Dad's best gift to me ever!

Happy Fall! I'll be back with more shenanigans and maybe food too v. soon.

oh yeah, and i found way too many pics of hot dog dogs (read: daschunds) in a hot dog costume.
this is my fave.

alright. i've lost it.
