Status Updates
March 23, 2009
I’m just going to launch into this one without a lot of preamble. We all know what status updates are, even though it’s called sharing now. We all know my blog is having an identity crisis, so let’s play along. (And please allow a little creative license, while I stretch this conceit beyond the point where it makes any sense.)
Sarah is doing a lot of research about Greensboro, Alabama. Intrigued? Stay tuned.
Sarah is just finished a most annoying, but nicely written book, Breakable You, by Brian Morton. Am I losing my tolerance for reading books about middle class New Yorkers that are miserable?
Sarah is also not sure why she battled through Netherland. It was the 5-page long descriptions of cricket that did me in. At least Breakable You was an easy read.
Sarah is in need of a book she is going to love.
Sarah is worried about Sawyer’s goodness.
Sarah is frustrated by Idol.
Sarah is happy that Grey’s Anatomy seems to be making a comeback.
Sarah is in love with these chilean lime chips. They are cooked in avocado oil, which means they have 30% less fat than your average chip. Avocados are really good for you; chips are fun and these are really, really tasty. Super-salty, tangy, crispy and great with sandwiches. I promise they don’t taste like cardboard. One caveat, the bags are smaller than an average chip bag, so the risk of eating the whole bag is high. Unfortunately, doing this would still be around 80 billion calories of chip consumption, despite their ‘healthiness.”
Sarah is counting the above item as a product review.
Sarah is obsessed with this perfect sandwich:
Soft grainy bread
Soft avocado, spread on one piece of bread
Goat cheese spread on the other piece of bread (if I don’t have goat cheese, I just slice up gruyere or cheddar)
A couple slices of tomato
A few pieces of pancetta cooked until crispy
Smush it all together and eat. You can add egg for extra yumminess and obviously take out the pancetta for meat-free action.
Sarah is sure that TV bloopers watched on YouTube are the cure for any bad mood. The Seinfeld bloopers are really great.
Sarah is happy her husband is home.
Sarah is happy she blogged today and thinks she will do it again tomorrow.
And yes, I would like to share.
