I was staying with my lifelong facebook girlfriend and her husband on a recent weekend when she received a fresh Athleta shipment containing some new skinny jeans. Boring boring new skinny jeans who hasn’t launched those? I thought at first. BUT HOLY COW the skinny jeans are the holy grail of skinny jeans. You know…
Is this a cop-out for a Feel Good Friday? I have so much to be grateful for but after breaking from tradition last week and ranting earlier this week, I can’t quite get back to the ebullience of the previous gratitude lists. See you next week.
Dammit sometimes it sucks being a woman. No, it sucks being discounted automatically based on something innate, in this case gender, no matter who you are. I started this post a few months ago with the headline and a vague concept to rant about things that people tell me to chill out about because it’s…
Are there any foods you just go crazy for, from one specific place? French Onion soup from DIA’s Denver Chop House in Terminal A is mine. Sure, it’s great French Onion soup (seriously, go try it.

Sunday: setup tv on beach to watch texans vs patriots. play vb. watch football. play vb. swim. PERFECT. Sunday afternoon: friends come over. babies. grillin’. rosé. PERFECT.…
What DO I want to do? (launch a company? run a company? live in a cabin in the wilderness? these are the kinds of things that come up when you’re at a b-school offsite and everyone wants to know what you do and what you do on the side and why you’re in b-school to…
Because ’tis the season for pumpkin, betches. I basically got the idea from this recipe, and more or less used this recipe, and then made it my own, obviously. Protein and pumpkin and chocolate chips, with great texture? Yeah, eat it for all the times. Protein Pumpkin Bread (with optional chocolate chips) 4 scoops Primal…
The third Cameron Hughes rosé is a Willamette Valley rosé of pinot noir (583), so I’m predisposed to love it as Willamette is a region I both love and am very familiar with … and we know how I feel about rosé in general. Secretly, this wine comes from Firesteed. On my spectrum of favorite…
