Farewell

nobody@vox.com(eliz. s.) — Tue, 25 Aug 2009 16:33:33 -0500

I think I'm done with Vox. I'm not planning on getting rid of this blog, but I don't plan on updating it -- not that I have much recently anyway. Tumblr is just so very easy to use, and Vox has remained somewhat static since I started using it a...

What I read last month: June 2009

nobody@vox.com(eliz. s.) — Fri, 03 Jul 2009 08:38:45 -0500

This month I gave up on a lot of books I started, and only finished these: That's seven books, but it doesn't feel like many to me. . . Favorites for the month:

I heart this book series: the Makepeace Hedley books

nobody@vox.com(eliz. s.) — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 12:57:47 -0500

I finished A Catch of Consequence over the weekend, moved on to Taking Liberties (which I just finished at lunch today), and am now on The Sparks Fly Upward. I think all in all, this book series only cost me about $12. It's worth that and more! ...

Concert tonight: Gomez!

[ track on Amazon ]. I'm so looking forward to their concert tonight. The first concert of theirs I went to was a post-ACL concert they did with Guster about 4-5 years ago. My pal G and I went mainly for Guster, but they were such a let-down com...

What I read last month: May 09

nobody@vox.com(eliz. s.) — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 09:25:59 -0500

Among the 14 books (!) I read this month, I had a good number of favorites: The Condition, No One You Know, The Help, The Rose of Sebastopol and The Last Bachelor. I found Kristin Chenoweth's book quite enjoyable, but I wish it had more details i...

Note to self, vol. 2

nobody@vox.com(eliz. s.) — Sun, 17 May 2009 09:15:25 -0500

I let my friends who are new parents borrow these: They said there's nothing on TV at 2am or 5am except for poker. So I figured these would be a better alternative for nursing times.

What I read last month: April 2009

nobody@vox.com(eliz. s.) — Fri, 01 May 2009 10:55:12 -0500

Well, April was another month where I had some stops and starts. I started reading these two and gave up on them: I really liked The Drunkard's Walk, but I was getting frustrated at how long it was taking me to read it (mainly because it requir...

Mediterranean Orzo Salad

nobody@vox.com(eliz. s.) — Tue, 21 Apr 2009 16:57:32 -0500

I made an orzo salad this weekend by mixing up two recipes I found online. Sorry there are no pictures, but trust me, it came out light and yummy. You can use just 1 cup orzo, I just felt the balance was better with more of it. Greek/Mediterra...
