This was my lunch. Should be featured on ThisIsWhyYou’reNot Fat.com

Thanks to my good friend Art, who knows how to take a few random ingredients in the fridge and turn them into something delicious.

sprouted organic bread, toasted

olive tapenade spread

organic red leaf lettuce

organic butter lettuce

organic fat juicy and amazingly awesome tomato

organic sauerkraut

organic green bell pepper

grilled firm tofu marinated in nutritional yeast and soy sauce

sharp cheddar cheese

mashed avocado

sprouted organic bread, toasted

sprinkled with (more) nutritional yeast

Bonus: he grew all the veggies himself.

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!

being in a serious relationship with someone doesn't mean you should ever stop doing the little things that counted so much in the beginning. romance holds even more importance as time goes on.

I photographed my breakfast this morning, which was this. Many of them. I couldn’t stop making toasty melty marshmallows. Camping trips make me fall in love with the kinds of junk food I tend to forget exist.

Drew surprised me with tickets to Ray LaMontagne tonight. It was a solo acoustic show and despite the 3,500 capacity sold-out Moscone concert hall, it was a very intimate and lovely performance. His music is very powerful for me and I had never heard him live before (although I did have lunch in his kitchen once.)

All The Wild Horses as his encore left me with a face full of fresh tears. That man is a god with a voice like that and easy on the eyes, too.

whiskey tango foxtrot

for kicks: the next time that you are making reservations over the phone with a maître d’, why not use the unhelpful phonetic alphabet to spell your name? as my former accordion instructor points out, “efficiency is the enemy of serendipity.”

My Gammy, who turns 90 years old today, is the classiest and most vibrant woman I know. Born in Maine in 1919, she was a World War II nurse in Germany, married my grandfather, became a professional tennis player in Palm Beach Florida, birthed nine children, continued working as a nurse, started a business baking and selling rum cakes, and has enjoyed a life full of travel, children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, fast cars, and adventure. She is a connoisseur of ice cream and a lady of fashion and has more hats than I do. She won’t leave the house without her makeup or her best shoes, even if she’s just going to the grocery store. She still goes to Mass every Sunday and she still stays up ‘til midnight playing cards and drinking Bloody Marys and she still makes me laugh more than anyone ever has.

Here’s to you, Gammy.

The Octopus Who Loves His Mr Potato Head

“Louis, a giant Pacific octopus at the Blue Reef Aquarium in Cornwall, England, is so attached to his Mr Potato Head toy that he turns aggressive when aquarium staff try to remove it from his tank.

“The giant Pacific octopus was given the toy for Christmas and has even learned to dig out food hidden in the secret box at the back of it.”

via Metro.co.uk

My nephew called me last week. The conversation went something like this:

“Megan. I got… a POTATO HEEEEAAAAAD!”

“You DID?! A MISTER Potato Head?”

“Yessssssssss.”

“All riiiight, buddy! That’s awesome!”

“You come over play wit’ me an’… an’… Mis— Mist—, um, Potato Head?”

And then I felt like a really bad aunt for being three thousand miles away.

I have the most impressive/gluttonous collection of vintage clothing ever.

These are just the dresses.

And there are four of them on each hanger.

Maybe I should open a boutique.

My adorable nephew is so. very. adorable.

Cat is my co-pilot.

The only way she could keep calm was by riding on the dashboard for the last four hundred miles of the move.

Oh, yeah, I moved. More on that soon.
