. . .

how to annoy me: beg for your own ice cream at the overpriced dipping-dots place, then refuse to eat said ice cream because it’s “too cold!” i know you’re two-and-a-half, and i know you’re not my kid, but it still makes me a litte peevish. fortunately, my kid agreed to double her portion of too-cold ice cream, so it didn’t go completely to waste.

how to charm me: stop by Momfuku Milk Bar (which is not at all on the way) on your way home from work to pick up crack pie and cornflake milk. (note: the pie’s not really made from crack. the cornflake milk is that tasty milk that’s left over after you’ve eaten all the cereal from the bowl. so much yum.)

wondering why: my fingernails always get brittle and break when it’s humid outside

feeling guilty about: the number of unfinished (but sooooo close!) projects on my desk right now

looking forward to: launching my new website, visiting our family in The Hoosier State, singing at the Mostly Mozart Festival in august.

thinking about: making a cherry pie. or maybe cherry cheescake. or maybe both.

desperate to: lose the last 35lbs., despite the obvious food-obsession.
