So I just got glasses for the first time. Apparently, I’ve been running around with an astigmatism for the last 29 years but never knew it. Maybe it’s too much time on the computer or maybe it was reading too much Harry Potter (or maybe I just like Harry’s look), but any way you slice…

Christine and I have decided on a reward system for working out. It’s not a diet, but more of a fitness schedule. If we each workout the number of times a week that we set as our goal, then at the end of the month we get a treat. Well we were very good for…

I don’t know if anyone would be interested in sharing some recipes, but I’ve found a neat little Mac application that lets you manage your recipes. And since more and more of the people I know are switching to Macs (including my parents) I was thinking that there might be enough people that would want…

At the request of my favorite sister in law I have posted some pics from Christmas morning. Truly, she is the star of the photos which explains a lot about why she wanted them posted. Hope you enjoy them! http://www.thickasabrick.net/photos/xmas/xmasmorning.html

Before I go into my short tirade about how awful the new Eragon movie is, I should mention that I just added some additional photos from our trip to the Franklin Park Conservatory while we were in Ohio for Christmas. The pictures can be found on my New pictures page: http://www.thickasabrick.net/photos/ So I recently finished…

We made this recipe at least three times this month and it was amazing every time! This is probably one of the easiest recipes that I have posted so far. I hope many people will try it and let me know if they like it. You can download a PDF of the recipe here: Baked…

We just posted some pictures from Christmas Eve with Christine’s family. For those interested you can take a look here: http://www.thickasabrick.net/photos/xmas/cabin.html I hope to have the recipe of the month for December up tomorrow so make sure you check back!

Another year has passed, and I find myself starting into my 30th year and I realize I’ve grown older and wiser (some may debate the latter) but I still enjoy acting like a little kid. Here’s hoping that even once I reach 30 I’ll still be the same way! To prove just how mature I…

I’m just barely getting this recipe in before the end of the month. And although it is not a particularly November type recipe (does not go well with turkey), I am currently a big fan of any recipe that lets me use my Thai peppers! A word of warning, this recipe can be very hot…

It’s hard to believe, but last year was my ten-year high school reunion. To be honest, it was somewhat anti-climactic. In the movies, there is always so much more drama. I’m sure it’s a good thing though that every one was friendly and no one was out for revenge…even though it forces you to realize…
