Boundless Optimism: February 2011
http://boundlessoptimism.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 14, 2011. Portrait of the Divine in Chocolate. Feliz Dia de San Valentin! My mother, sister, and I have a tradition where every year on this day we wish each other a Happy VD. Call us sophomoric, but I still think it's funny. It's a grey day in Sunny Santa Rosa and I sit at the Flying Goat Coffee Shop off of Railroad Square. It's the loveliest pastel puse colored coffee shop that ever there was, and their hot chocolate truly is divine. And it's just enough! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Boundless Optimism: Back to School
http://boundlessoptimism.blogspot.com/2011/01/back-to-school.html
Monday, January 24, 2011. Today was my first day of school at the Santa Rosa Junior College. Dakota said to me this morning as I was walking out "Have fun, and don't be a "lickspittle". It's weird being a "nontraditional" student, but fun to be back in the library! Sanitation and Safety has taught me that you should never thaw anything at room temperature. Actually, it's pretty good advice. Thanks, Chef! I bet she loves teaching this class as much as the rest of us love taking it. View my complete profile.

Boundless Optimism: Boundlessly Resolute
http://boundlessoptimism.blogspot.com/2011/01/boundlessly-resolute.html
Sunday, January 2, 2011. It's 2011. Isn't that exciting? No massive overhaul required, just an open outlook on the time to come. Incidentally, blogging once a week is on that list. Anyway, she made a masque and it was lovely. Here is the recipe. 1 drop tea tree oi. Wash and dry your face. Gently massage masque onto your face and leave for a few minutes. Wipe off masque with a damp washcloth. My friend Whitney recently posted her most recent film, which is viewable on Youtube! January 3, 2011 at 11:13 AM.

Boundless Optimism: Real Women Eat Quiche
http://boundlessoptimism.blogspot.com/2010/02/real-women-eat-quiche.html
Wednesday, February 3, 2010. Real Women Eat Quiche. I can see why quiches get such a bad rap. My first encounters with quiches were those dreadful little frozen tidbits popular at so many cocktail and dinner parties. Bland but for the salt, often lukewarm in the center, and with highly questionable ingredients. I mean, how exactly does one get the effect of a flaky rubber crust? Another scientific achievement from the ages of better living through chemistry. If anything, a stereotypical woman would be un...

Boundless Optimism: November 2008
http://boundlessoptimism.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 13, 2008. A friend told me a long time ago that one of the best cures for depression is a grilled cheese sandwich. I couldn't agree more. Not only does it harken back images of my childhood velveeta obsession (forbidden fruit, what can I say? But the deliciously excessive amount of fat in a grilled cheese boosts your saratonin levels making you feel quite a bit better, even on a rainy day with not too much to look forward to. STUFFED BUTTERCUP SQUASH WITH RICE PILAF AND MUSHROOMS.

Boundless Optimism: July 2011
http://boundlessoptimism.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 18, 2011. Say it, Baby, Say it! I think there should be a drug for people who can't say no. Maybe something that you can't get OTC and that someone with a doctorate must prescribe you. Or better yet, they should just have it as an extra smoothie shot at those colorful juice bar places where you can get boosts of calcium, protein, wheatgrass, and confidence. Yeah That sounds easier. I need to start practicing, otherwise it's just going to be like this forever. So let's do some "No-ga". But un...

Wednesday, August 4, 2010. This is How We Spend Time In Bodega. The time is now 4:04:59 PM. Donny and Dakota are sitting in the shade of the surf shop patio playing chess. The tourists walk by gazing into a world that they will rarely, if ever, take part in. Perhaps Sarah can interest them in a Northern Lights sweater. This is how we spend time in Bodega. This is how we spend time in Bodega. The next day, the obituary is in the paper. It reads:. Bill died. Cadillac for sale.". This is Peter and me. H...
