Excuses, exchmuses…
I guess I owe you guys an apology (that’s if there’s anyone left reading this godforsaken blog) for my absence. Well the explanation is as simple as it is complicated. It’s hard to blog when you are going through a serious health issue, because your mind becomes consumed with wondering whether you’re going to live or die. Hard to take a light-hearted look on life and write about it in times like that I tell you.
Anyhow, I’m not completely out of the woods yet, but working on it and I’m hopeful.
Had to tell you that, as I reckon I’ve used up all the lame excuses there are.
So
Moving on.
I’ve mentioned about being a bit of a blog whore. Blog whoring is defined by me as someone who has such a long list of blogs in her RSS reader, that she can barely get through reading them daily.
Anyhow, one of the blogs I have subscribed to is one Erin O’Brien.
Now Erin is a writer and her blog is sometimes interesting, sometimes downright bizarre and I wasn’t sure whether I should put her on the “blogs I check daily” list over to the right there. The criteria for making my “blogs I check daily” list can be any of these:
* Selected blogs that link me (because clearly they have good taste), but they must meet some of the following criteria too
* Blogs that make me laugh
* Blogs with interesting or unusual content
* Blogs that are kept up to date (and if not, I think they are still worth reading if you haven’t come across them before)
Well today Erin posted a link to an article she wrote for the Cleveland Free Times. She is SO in my “blogs I read daily” list now.

Thanks for the link! And you will not be let down if you make those effing cukes. I hate squeezing all those mothers, but in the end, it’s worth it.
And if you want to make some way effing cool zucchini soup, go on over here.
Oh yeah. This sandwich kick serious ass.
And so does this one.
Good work here. I love you. Carry on.

Thanks for stopping by Erin.
I’m well aware of squeezing those mothers, believe me, being of Hungarian descent.
I also went through and read some of your “best of” articles and lauged out loud. You rock, lady!
