Writer's Block: Old School

Which classic arcade game was always your favorite as a kid? When you come across an old Galaga, Donkey Kong, or Ms. Pac Man machine (whatever your favorites were), do you still like to toss a quarter at them to take one more shot at the high scores list?


CRYSTAL CASTLES. If I could find a working console, SO MANY QUARTERS.

Also Centipede.

Writer's Block: Singles Awareness Day

I don't much care. The exchange of valentines in my son's first-grade class was very cute. I never had big expectations from my partner on Valentine's Day, so I'm not missing out on anything gigantic or extravagant. But this year I admit to a bit of sensitivity around the issue of being single, especially in terms of being a single parent. And of course the holiday does a great job of reminding me of that. *sigh*

Food questions

You know this plain nonfat Greek yogurt that's all the rage? Chobani at Safeway, Fage at TJ's, whatever? I put honey on it like tellinellen does, but I'm not crazy about it that way. What do you do to it to make it yummy?

Also, my mom says never to put strawberries or grapes in the fridge because it does something to the sugars and makes them taste not as good. Is this a rule you follow?
