With not a lot to do on my day off, and a whole bunch of left-over lemons from Red Robin (so that I could do this, but then Ethan threw my seeds away . . .), I decided to make a lemon pound cake.

With not a lot to do on my day off, and a whole bunch of left-over lemons from Red Robin (so that I could do this, but then Ethan threw my seeds away . . .), I decided to make a lemon pound cake.
So, some exciting news I’ve been meaning to share: I have a vacation, a new job, and a new apartment in my future.
So yesterday I got off of “work” early (more on that soon) and decided to hit Kroger on the way home for some stuff to make the Vegetarian Times email recipe of the week, Cherry Tomato and Yellow Squash Crumble.
Update: Someone got to this post because they Googled “what paint to use on wood chesterdrawers.” :D
I like to collect “knowledge gaps,” stories about people who misunderstood something simple, presumably as children, and were never corrected until later in life. For example, I thought gravity could be re-created on space stations into my twenties (presumably after watching “Rocket Man” as a child), and only found out that this wasn’t the case after a lengthy argument on the subject with my boyfriend, Lee. My boyfriend, on the other hand, thought that in the south, a bureau or dresser may also be called “Chester drawers.” I think it was last year that I first heard him say this.
We’re about to move into a new place in downtown Memphis, and so I’ve had home design and interior decorating on the brain (check out my Pinterest on the subject). The other day, when I saw a beat up Chester drawers with good bones on the side of the road, I decided it wanted to make it into this.
