Fast

I did well maintaining my weight during most of my hamstring injury. But the past two weeks, I got a little bit of that fuckititis—you know, where you’re like, I want that cookie fuckit. Of course I drink wine every night after work, work is HARD (not really), fuckit. I’m in Aspen with my fave people, of course I…

Not a thing like something romantic and fling-y, a thing like I’m afraid to touch raw chicken and I’ve learned to buy single-serve Boulder Naturals packets that I can cut open and dump into a pan without touching even though it’s terribly un-eco-friendly but it’s just about the only way…

Butternut Squash Lasagna Cups

I finally made a recipe I’d been wanting to make for awhile: butternut squash lasagna cups, from Pinterest. I like lasagna, but I don’t love it like I love pizza. But it has a lot of the same elements, so you’d think I’d love it just as much … anyway, I haven’t spent much time…
