“Different roads sometimes lead to the same castle.” –Jon Snow to Arya Stark before parting ways Game of Thrones spoilers ahead. All the spoilers. Show. Book. Inner-most thoughts of GRRM. Maybe not that part. But run away now if you don’t want to know things. If you’re a fan, the fact has not escaped you…
“Different roads sometimes lead to the same castle.” –Jon Snow to Arya Stark before parting ways This is a blog post about events in the HBO show, Game of Thrones. If you don’t want it spoiled for you, slowly back away now. There are few constants in this world. One I think we can…
I’d say I have a handful of guilty pleasures, but I don’t really care for the term. I have a handful of interests that lie outside of the spectrum of sophisticated entertainment and I am not ashamed of it. (I actually have way more than a handful of these, but that’s not as poetic-sounding.) I…
Well… I didn’t intend for this to be a Game of Thrones themed dish, but there’s no question that it is. I really just wanted to combine the saltiness of prosciutto and the sweetness of figs in a luxurious and fresh chicken dish. I wanted to roast it in a bit of dark saison to…
Looking through the thick curtain of trees and darkness, Daryl thought about what he’d done. It had been several months since he left the group and went back down to Georgia. He left behind his family. The only people, save Meryl, that he’s ever cared for. But what could he do? He was so sick…

It’s not easy, opening up a pizzeria with only one arm. Have you ever tried to toss dough? It’s hard enough to do with two arms … then you factor in keeping the fur out of everything … Little Wampa, an ironic nickname given to him by his friends, didn’t let this stop him from…
Anyone else obsessed with James Bond? Anyone? I feel like I don’t meet many females around my age that have gotten into the series. A lot of the guys that I’ve met have seen them. My mom is obsessed with Connery, so she’s definitely seen his. (She told me today she was watching Moonraker last…
Vacation has had a bit of a rocky start but things look good now. We’re on the road, Ellen has dozed off so she isn’t nagging me, the kids are fighting but I can drown them out and there is nothing but blue skies ahead! Huh. That red convertible is coming up kind of fast…
