I got my cholesterol results back!
My LDL (bad cholesterol) was 133. And my HDL (good cholesterol) was a sky high 74!! I don't actually know what they were "before". I just wanted to brag about my good cholesterol, lol. The doctor proclaimed me "perfectly healthy" and told me to come back in 3 years. Their software can't even book appointments out that far!

Staff IDs 2.5 years and 32 lbs apart (face pic!)

This is the not so great side effect: I am no longer allowed to put anything in the (admittedly very shallow) pockets of these jeans…

I gave my cat the ring off the milk jug to play with and she kept knocking it underneath the chifferobe and then tearing at the carpet trying to get it out, so I had to get down and reach under the chifferobe to get it out for her. When I first started…

Carrots
I have a bunch of carrots just sitting around that I don't know what to do with. I tried frying a few in butter but I'm not particularly good at frying things and just managed to char them without cooking them enough. (I like my carrots to be totally soft - not firm or crunchy at all.) So! Anyone have any recipes that use…
