Bipolar

I haven't posted in quite some time, trying to avoid spewing bile again as I slog through yet another period of Bean sleep problems. I can't believe the harpie I become when I'm sleep-deprived! But all you mamas know about that already. I do hope to be a normal, loving mama again one of these days.

Just quickly, I wanted to put down here the entertaining montage of things on my kitchen counter after a week's vacation from school. They are: a half-finished mega bottle of cheap red wine, a mushroom log sprouting its first crop of organic, home-grown shiitakes, and a tray of fluorescent pink Peeps bunnies, mostly eaten and the remainder achieving a delightful dry sugar crust in this damn cold snap we're having.

I may once have worked as a pastry chef, but no one can ever accuse me of being a food snob.
