Eat the Damn Cake. Archive for the 'writing' Category. What really matters (my last post). People like you more when you’re attractive, said a friend of mine who has spent a lot of time losing weight and getting fit. It’s been proven. There are a lot of studies. You’re more likely to succeed. Okay, I said. That stuff about CEOs? Where they’re always tall? Yeah, she said. That too. They’re always tall and have all their hair. It’s practically a law. A lot, she said, her voice hard. But I find that I am so...

Eat the Damn Cake » first Mother’s Day, a memorial post
http://www.eatthedamncake.com/2014/05/14/first-mothers-day-a-memorial-post
Eat the Damn Cake. First Mother’s Day, a memorial post. This is for Peggy. And, of course, for Maggie. Maggie texted me that there was something she had to tell me. I texted back what’s up? She’s just missing. It’ll be fine. She can’t be dead because it’s Maggie’s first Mother’s Day now. Mother’s Day was invented by Hallmark, my brother Jake reminds me when he calls to wish me a happy one. I mean, no offense, since you’re a mom now and stuff. But it’s kinda a bullshit holiday. Our babies and our legs).

Eat the Damn Cake » real women, size 12-14
http://www.eatthedamncake.com/2014/04/23/real-women-size-12-14
Eat the Damn Cake. Real women, size 12-14. I got an email from one of those extremely popular TV shows that no one I know actually watches. I was trying to feed myself with one hand and spooning sweet potato into the baby’s mouth with the other. The email had come up on my phone and I thumbed over it messily, unable to resist. Would I be interested in coming on the show, the email asked, to talk about my experience as a real woman? I will talk about being a woman on national television! So, how about it?

A blog about a stranger's dumb wedding. If not caring is wrong, i don’t want to be right. August 17, 2010. This past weekend the beau dabbled in the fine art of flower-arranging. By which I mean: he took apart a bouquet of flowers from the farmer’s market and spent seven or eight minutes jamming the flowers into various vases on whim. Then he sat back and said, “These look pretty good.”. Here’s all of the test vases together:. Which makes me happy, because we’ll need a. For the number of vases we need to...

Dancer. reader. thinker. Tags: a case of the "reallyreallys". Don't be a dick. Oh for fuck's sake. Work with me people. You have no idea how close i've come to slapping you with a fish. It’s been a while. I’m currently developing opinions about managerial styles. Because I seem to be collecting a basket full of basketcases. Are you a manager? Because he or she was trying to get the project done, dammit. 5 Allow grace. Everyone has bad days. If you take the time to notice what’s going on in ...Great Now g...

A blog about a stranger's dumb wedding. December 10, 2010. Well, thirteen of you said you were interested in the metallic frames. I used for my wedding. Sadly, only. Of you can have them, unless I were to divide the seven frames evenly into thirteen pieces, which wouldn’t do anyone a lick of good. Happily, though, there. One winner of said metallic frames, and that winner is Jess. Told me so. See? Jess, I’ll be emailing you! I hope you trust me with your mailing address! Thank you for playing. I would ha...

A blog about a stranger's dumb wedding. While i’m on the subject. May 28, 2010. Listen. I have to come completely clean with you. The wine stoppers. Those weren’t the only DIY I tried. I’m sorry, OK? I wasn’t going to say anything about it, but it’s just that we’ve come to trust each other. I felt I had to tell you… that I also dabbled in tiered dessert stands. I’ll give you a moment. First, get some plates and glasses. My glasses came from a thrift store. Plus 20 points! Lay out all your supplies. Ed no...

A blog about a stranger's dumb wedding. Regrets, i’ve had a few. July 27, 2010. I’m a lazy bride. And I’m not just talking about the fact that I’d rather rent burlap table runners than make my own. I don’t so much actively seek out our vendors as I trip and fall into them. Our photographer? Was the first person I emailed after seeing her work on a website. Our caterer? Was recommended by my hair lady. Was on the list of venue-approved vendors. Our DJ? Friends, I am scared. I am scared that I effed th...
