Outfits not even a mother could love

Stacy: Let's talk a little bit about all these tees, shall we?
           "My mommy says I'm special".

Natalie: Well, yeah. It's true.

Clinton: Actually, I think your mommy said you dress like crap.



Clinton: When a statement tee is so obvious, I say why even wear it.
                Why bother. "I love tater tots"? Who the hell doesn’t!



         -Stacy London, Clinton Kelly, and their latest victim on What Not to Wear

A perfect description of why I find cooking more forgiving than baking

"Baking is definitely technical. It’s not like cooking where you put a little bit of this, a little bit of that, you throw things in. You have to measure. If you miss an ingredient in a pasta sauce, you’ll be able to taste it and you’ll be able to fix it right away. If you miss baking powder in a pastry or in a bread, you’re f*cked."

         - Lisa Fernandes, Top Chef: Season 4

"Turns out you can't control people, or even predict them. Numbers are different. As I used to say, you can count on them."

         -Donald Morton in Mozart and the Whale. I completely agree.

"Dear Diary, today I was pompous and my sister was crazy."

         - Jayne reading Simon’s diary on Firefly

"If ever anyone tries to kill you, you try to kill them right back."

         - Malcolm on Firefly

"This movie does not conform to my beliefs about time / space continuity…and that bothers me."

         - Cody after watching Deja Vu. I love my nerdy husband :)

"The theme of the day was 'eat our fairy dust' "

         - Jesse Brune on Work Out: Season 3

"Heeeeey, where's the party at?"

         - randomly yelled at me by a car full of guys as I walked to the mailbox

Catcalling: creepy or a compliment?

Me: Ooh, a beef brigade!

B: Hey, as long as it's not a sausage fest.

“You need to bring the thunder!”
