May The Fourth Be With You

May 4, 2011 by Carrie @ poet in the pantry Leave a Comment
raise your glass

Cinco de Mayo arrives tomorrow, which, for many, is no more than an excuse to gulp tequila-based drinks while chowiing down on Tex-Mex cuisine. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

Procrastination

December 12, 2010 by Carrie @ poet in the pantry Leave a Comment

Procrastination… The putting off of things you need to do until the very last minute. It’s almost a disease, uncontrollable in nature, unstoppable. You swear you’ll do things differently next time. You won’t wait again. And yet, the next time you’re handed a difficult task, something you don’t feel like doing, you wait. And wait. … [Read more…]
