Oatmeal Bars
Category: cooking
I just made Sarah Snow Oatmeal Bars. Holy crap are they cracktastic. I added 3 kinds of nuts (walnuts, almonds and pecans) and apricots and figs and bran and mangoes and apples. I used all organic ingredients and it cost a small fortune to make them. I just snuck a bite of them before i packaged them for the coming week- every dollar spent was worth it.

-If you want to make them you can find the recipe here:

Im not throwing gang signs
My brother threw a chair at me when i was in highschool. it was dramatic. my finger was briz-oke. Since then every year when it gets humid it hurts. I think this year is the worst. i can't move it. it hurts like i have arthritis. Pictorial proof below.

Hm, ironically someone who wrote this blog did that to my finger, trying to rip a hello kitty pillow out of my hand. At least we have twinsie gimped fingers out of it.

Sisters
Category: family
So today my mommy dearest calls me on her way to work to discuss a "issue" she has been having. She tells me that all Sarah does is quote me. "Well Jessica says this, Jessica says that, Jessica told me you were going to make me color your hair in the garage.."

My mom is sick of hearing my tidbits of wisdom via the littlest ho. The first thing that comes to mind is: awesome- warms the cockles of my heart. i so often take for granted having siblings and being the oldest. now that we are all grown up (i use this term very loosely) i forget that there is the possibility that they may still look up to me- if even in a small way. the second thing that comes to mind is: of course- i live in new york, i listen to npr every morning, read the nytimes and thus am superior and have far more wisdom than the normal, non city dwelling, human this link proves it.

Not a lower life form per se. Maybe just not as fully evolved as me.

Seriously though you are awesome.
lilho - 05/23/08 04:06
ps. grown up is so overrated, and im really not there yet, so yes, use it veeeery loosely.
lilho - 05/23/08 04:05
i don't know how i feel about this. it's like you love me, and whatnot, but as a lower life form? maybe i should just accept this and move on. but something is my heart is saying, "does not compute."
jenks - 05/22/08 21:52
aww...
:)

My sister told me once that she admires me and is proud of me... i was floored. I guess I had never even thought of it. But it really, really touched me.

Even though, like you, I absolutely SHOULD be worshipped, it's always nice to hear. ;)
