Maple Cream Snickerdoodle Bars
Halloween costumes are one of those things that I can’t make myself do. I love the idea of Halloween costumes. I love how other people look in Halloween costumes. I think I’d even love how I looked dressed up like Amelia Earhart or Maleficent . . . if it were a matter of just snapping my fingers.
It’s the effort though. I just can’t.

One thing I fight against every day is the weird feminine ideal of being quiet and demure. There are continual implications in pop culture (and probably in many of our daily lives) that women talk too much, and that the most attractive women are ones who either know how to shut up or, due to language barriers, have no choice but to shut up.

Portobello and Kale Pizza Bake
I know people have different taste or whatever, but I have trouble believing that anyone actually enjoys eating a kale chip.
I say this as someone who was very excited about the prospect of transforming a flavorless vegetable via heat and salt into a fitting potato chip substitute. I had fantasies of baking up dozens of pounds of kale and snacking continuously without actually amassing any significant numbers of calories. I dreamed of navigating the rest of my days with a pouch of salted kale chips, a coke zero, and not a care in the world.
And then I tasted a kale chip. WHAT DEVILRY IS THIS? It was like eating a salted piece of fireplace ash. Both the chip and my dreams disintegrated on my tongue in withering, bitter, anticlimactic defeat.

I’ve partnered with ALDI to try out their grocery stores and develop holiday recipes for you! ALDI’s has compensated me for my time and recipe development, but all my opinions are my own.
Mike’s been trying to whittle down our spending since we’re in a lean financial period. The cars and the dog keep falling apart at random intervals and requiring numerous visits to the mechanic and vet, respectively (we don’t take our dog to the mechanic, although perhaps that’s a thought. I wonder if they take Care Credit.)
He had been suggesting we eat out less, much to my dismay, but he finally analyzed our spending a few weeks ago and realized that that’s not the problem. It’s not even the dog, though we just found out she has allergies. Good grief.
IT’S GROCERIES.
