Sorry for the lack of posts this week divas.

In addition to getting a new purple Blackberry on Monday, I also got a nasty cold that is apparently blocking all funnies from my brain and my fingertips.

Hopefully I'll be back sometime soon, like today, with something interesting.

Until then, standby.

There was a death in the family last night...and she was only 7 months old!

That little gal mentioned in the link above got water-freaking-logged last night. And even after an overnight bath in wild rice, still won't come to.


I wish I could say it was because I accidentally dropped it in the hot tub while going for a soak with Paul Rudd and his hilarious homeboys.


Sadly though that was not the case.


It drowned in a heated baking experiment gone right, then gone terribly wrong. While making these beautiful pumpkin-cinammon streusel buns above, I took my eye off of the increasingly wet countertop drowning from hand washed dishes (curses for not having a dishwasher!). The results were fatal.


However, the baking results were delicious. After spending only one hour kneading the dough by hand, over an hour waiting for the dough to rise, and about 30 minutes in the oven, the outcome was a delicious fall-inspired pastry.


I have since ordered a new (pimped-out Internet phone, omg omg omg finally!), which should arrive sometime today.


For the throngs of you that have been trying to hit up my cell piece to no avail, holla at me sometime after 5 today. Or email, because I can do that too now ;)


P.S. This above picture is not from my actual rolls. In addition to my phone being broken, my computer also has a serious case of the shakes that prevent me from using it at all since I can't read the screen. I can't wait to spend my whole day Sunday with the Geek Squad. Oh technology, how I worship and abhor you.

Namaste

Last night I went to a pretty awesome yoga class. I actually worked up a sweat, it was pretty hard, and, much to my surprise, the teacher wasn't that weird. Usually I find yoga teachers to be very strange and smelly.

During our 5 minute wind down meditation, I kept thinking about how impressively normal this teacher was. Then, wait for it...

He bid us adieu by saying, "I bless the light and life in each of you."

Yikes, getting a little to zen for me.

Then the real kicker...

"Also, this Saturday I'm teaching a voluntary class at my home at 6am, followed by a vegetarian potluck and an outdoor campfire."

Meat eater says what?!

A) If you think I'm waking up at 6am on Saturday, you're crazy.

B) If I am going to wake up that early for anything, there better be a mixed medley of breakfast meats involved.

C) If this schedule looks the way I think it does, that campfire is going to be around 9am. Somehow ghost stories and organic s'mores just don't carry that same nostalgia when the sun is still rising.

Survey says: Yoga teachers are still weird. But I really liked the class :)
