I Get Around.

Ilina · February 1, 2010 ·

Lest you think me a slacker, I figured I’d share some other tidbits I’ve been writing. While Dirt & Noise is my home in this web of a well, The Web, I do settle my boots to dry in other equally inviting spots. None, however, so out of OSHA filth and decibel level standards as this honky tonk.

From my Foodie Mama Outpost:
Check out one of my new favorite dishes that hails from my very own kitchen. Now beware, I don’t really use precise measurements so don’t curse me if you can’t cook and muck this up with your own messed up teaspoons and metric conversions. If you just cook with your gut and trust your hunches, you’ll serve up some splendid suppers.

Gnocchi. Butternut Squash. Mmmmmm…..

And those uber cool women at Silicon Valley Moms actually let lil ol‘ moi contribute to their regional blog, Deep South Moms. You’ll see that I do an inordinate amount of bitching over there. It’s all easier to swallow if I end each post with “Bless her heart.”

Here’s what I had to say about what I think is the worst part of parenting.

    Huh. I think this totally explains why most of my friends don't have kids the same ages as mine!
