This Week’s Agenda

Posted by: Jen on: November 26, 2006

Why everything comes at once I will never understand. This week is going to be an extremely busy one as I am making a giant baby shower cake for my friend Bernadette’s shower on Saturday and I also have an interview on Friday. Since I am usually a last minute kind of person, [...]

Still Alive …

Posted by: Jen on: November 26, 2006

It’s been over a week since I last posted, and for those of you that use this blog to check up on me … yes, I am still alive.  It’s amazing what a total energy drain anger is.  Ever since I had that meeting with my boss that I mentioned in my last post, I’ve [...]

For Better & For Worse

Posted by: Jen on: November 17, 2006

Upside: I can breathe today (although my voice is going).
Flip-side: Rage would be a SEVERE understatement to describe my current emotional state.
Why rage?  In short, I had an extremely long conversation with my boss today – which did not go well at all.  I will not get into details here, for possible legal reasons in [...]

Jasper

Posted by: Jen on: November 14, 2006

Isn’t he the cutest?
It’s official.  I’m sick.  I spent four days trying to avoid whatever bug Jay has, but to no avail.  I don’t know if I have exactly what he had, since it seems like he got sick overnight and it’s taken me four days to get to the point where I have one [...]

Good Grief

Posted by: Jen on: November 14, 2006

I decided that I needed a break from cookbooks and food writing for a while, so I picked up Good Grief by Lolly Winston yesterday to start reading on my commute.  Just one day later and I’m already 1/2 way through.  It’s a quick and easy read, kind of like candy for a reader.  Nothing [...]

Weekend Wrap-up

Posted by: Jen on: November 12, 2006

It’s been a long three day weekend here at Chez J, and I figured I’d get in a little weekend wrap-up while I’m sitting here waiting for some night-time coffee.
We initially decided to take Friday off to head to the College Women’s Club of Montclair’s semi-annual booksale. Jay took a sick day and I took [...]

Grown Up Rice Krispie Treats

Posted by: Jen on: November 9, 2006

My variation on a classic recipe that’s well loved. What’s better than a plain rice krispie treat? One that satisfies both a sweet AND salty fix.  I’m sure I’ll be trying different combinations of cereals and nuts in the near future … and if I stike upon anything else super tasty I’ll be [...]

Scrubbing

Posted by: Jen on: November 9, 2006

Some people turn to alcohol, drugs, gambling or sex when they feel the need to release some steam and destress. Me? I turn to cleaning. A scrubbed clean house that you could eat off the floor in means that you are entering into some dark place in my mind if I am [...]

99 miles to philly

Posted by: Jen on: November 9, 2006

99 miles to philly
190 Bleeker St
(btwn 6th Ave and Macdougal St.)
New York, NY 10003
Stopped in for a quick lunch here the other day, and all in all, not too bad.  Granted, it’s no Pat’s, but it was a decent cheesesteak.  The menu is simple and instructions on “how to order” are as follows:  choose your [...]
