Inside Heidi's Head: August 2015
http://heiditoth.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Where there is an opinion on everything and a place for anything. Thursday, August 27, 2015. When nightmares become a reality. Five minutes after turning on my computer today, my Twitter started to get ominously mysterious. A news station tweeting two portraits, with the caption, "We love you." Poynter referencing broken hearts. I knew it was bad before I knew what it was. The shootings sparked a wave of social media discussion ranging from gun control to fact-checking to how much, if any, of the station...

Inside Heidi's Head: If ice cream were a currency, what would the exchange rate be?
http://heiditoth.blogspot.com/2015/05/if-ice-cream-were-currency-what-would.html
Where there is an opinion on everything and a place for anything. Sunday, May 3, 2015. If ice cream were a currency, what would the exchange rate be? I don't want to brag, but I have this ice cream recipe. That has a cult following. It's just tasty like that. Of course, that cult is my mother, who has now made it roughly 10 times more often than I have. I mean, I'm flattered, but my sister, who's a temporary sous chef in my mom's kitchen, is a little tired of making strawberry lemon ice cream. How you to...

Inside Heidi's Head: Online dating ... again ... just because
http://heiditoth.blogspot.com/2015/06/time-for-another-foray-into-sordid.html
Where there is an opinion on everything and a place for anything. Wednesday, June 24, 2015. Online dating . again . just because. Well, well, well, well well well. Here we go again. Yes, after a long hiatus, I have re-entered the online "dating" world. Why, you ask? Was it the wonderful experiences I had last time? The very polite, not at all horny men who contacted me? Nah I just did. Thought I'd mix things up a little bit. It's been an enlightening four days. Let me share with you what I've learned.

Inside Heidi's Head: June 2015
http://heiditoth.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Where there is an opinion on everything and a place for anything. Monday, June 29, 2015. I can't run, but I can eat. Hands down the best part of summer? As the expiration date approached on the 28 limes I had in my fridge, however, my typical wash and eat method would be a little less effective. (Peeling a lime seems like the most unnatural thing, right? It takes a few steps and some time, and you really should let it cool sufficiently before you cut into it, which I know violates the very important tast...

Inside Heidi's Head: December 2014
http://heiditoth.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Where there is an opinion on everything and a place for anything. Wednesday, December 31, 2014. Three tanks, two theaters and a moral quandary. Riddle me this: If you are in a store that offers samples and you freely sample with no intention of purchasing anything, is this wrong? The Pacific Combat Zone has a memorial for the American servicemembers killed. It is a very large number. Also, because apparently I'm now a Trekkie, I saw a model of the USS Enterprise (aircraft carrier, not spacecraft, but sti...

Inside Heidi's Head: #PartyLikeAJournalist
http://heiditoth.blogspot.com/2014/02/partylikeajournalist.html
Where there is an opinion on everything and a place for anything. Monday, February 24, 2014. Fun fact: the cool way to spend a Friday night in Roswell in the '90s was to cruise Main Street, including taking a spin through the Sonic Drive-In downtown. Yes, I meant 1890s. On an unrelated note, if I every make this ice cream into ice cream on a stick, I'm going to call them Whimsicles! Food does not have to be pretty to taste good, but it's really fun when it is. 1 1/3 cup sugar. 2 cups heavy cream. 5 Put t...

Inside Heidi's Head: October 2014
http://heiditoth.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Where there is an opinion on everything and a place for anything. Monday, October 6, 2014. Visiting me is like a fast pass trip in a time machine - you go back to your teenage eating habits (why oh why the cinnamon rolls, chips and cookies? You flash ahead to your geriatric bedtimes (10 pm, and sometimes we only made it to 10 because we were too tired to brush our teeth) and then you shoot all the way to some old school elementary fortune-telling games. That's right, my friends - Sam and I played MASH!

Inside Heidi's Head: What is not better covered with chocolate and sea salt?
http://heiditoth.blogspot.com/2015/08/what-is-not-better-covered-with.html
Where there is an opinion on everything and a place for anything. Monday, August 3, 2015. What is not better covered with chocolate and sea salt? You know the line about how dogs always want to crotch-meet the person who's afraid of dogs? Or give a big hello jump on the person who's allergic? Well, they also have a sixth sense for suckers. I, in case it wasn't clear, am a sucker. I went on a walk with one dog this morning and came back with two. Was talking about ticks a bad intro for this? These cookies...

Inside Heidi's Head: The terrible, horrible, no good, very bad morning
http://heiditoth.blogspot.com/2015/07/lazy-crazy-awful-days-of-summer.html
Where there is an opinion on everything and a place for anything. Saturday, July 4, 2015. The terrible, horrible, no good, very bad morning. Some people work hard so their kids can have an easier time than they did, so they can retire and live the life they dreamed, so they can travel the world for a year. Or so they can afford the brand-name Oreos. SPOILER* The kitten is OK. I am the worst person. Answer same as before. Call the emergency vet number? After about a minute of the awful kitten crying (awfu...
