Being a parent is a tough gig. Whether it's staying up all night with a teething baby or trying to juggle time between soccer practice and a gymnastics meet and getting your kids fed, there's a ton of stress. Sometimes, it seems never ending.
"They grow up so fast," people exclaim, when you tell them how tired you are, as though that's somehow going to negate the guilt you already feel for not enjoying every! second! of parenthood!
In that vein, here are the top five new year's resolutions each parent should make this year.
1) I will not feel guilty about not being Wonder Woman. Just because I grew up wearing a Wonder Woman training bra does not mean I need to -- or can -- do all of the things all of the time. I am one person and I refuse to allow guilt to ruin my life.
2) I will incorporate physical activity into my everyday life. I don't need a gym membership -- I can simply park farther away, do some yoga on my Wii Fit, and make sure to get up every 45 minutes and work out at my desk.
3) I will make time each day that's my own. Whether that means a 20-minute drive alone, a hot bath, time at a real (gasp!) gym, or time to read a book, I need some time to be me.
4) I will not tolerate those who treat me poorly. Whether it's my friends, my family, or my husband, I will not stand for it. It's not good for me, and it's not good for my children to watch someone else treat me poorly. It will stop now.
5) I will accept that I do not enjoy every moment of parenting and I will embrace it. Nothing is perfect, why would parenting be any different? I will savor the fun times and handle the others with grace and dignity, but never again will I feel shame for not enjoying every moment.
What are YOUR resolutions for the new year?

#4... yes #4...I need my backbone back.
and my 'wish' resolution is to get rid of the baby weight. final target loss of 35 lbs. starting goal of -10 lbs.
I hope to find a steady job this year
I don't make any, but this list is awesome!!!
I love the resolution from NicholasMama to be HAPPY! That just became my resolution - along with losing weight since I need to (for health reasons & to help me keep up with my boys).
These sound good!
These are great resolutions! I resolve to remove the clutter from my life, one step at a time.

I really need to stop wearing my moccasins out in the snow. I always forget I shouldn't wear them until I'm outside and step in a foot of snow. Oops

I purchased this generator from Norwall a while ago, very satisfied with this Generac generator. An electrician friend of mine installed the transfer switch. I have the battery hooked up to a trickle charge when not in use. This machine was a life saver for me during TS Irene & Superstorm Sandy. You can't go wrong with portable generator.

I recieved the GP17,500E in a very timely manor along with the delivery driver could not be more helpful. I found putting it together was very easy. When I tried the generator out, it started up with no problem and everything worked the way it was supposed to. I highly recommend this generator to others.I did replace my electric panel so I could have a transfer switch built in to the electric panel. Thanks for the fast delivery and the communications I recieved from Norwall power systems keeping me informed with the shipping information.
Posted by Ron K, Lexington, SC. on 23rd Jul 2012
This generac generator was shipped to me in a very timely manner. I was very satisfied to see that it was shipped on a heavy duty pallet. R/L Carriers also did a great job of delivering the generator to my home/ shop. The way that the frame is put together with rounded corners on the bottom helped me to be able to put the axles and wheels on without killing myself lifting one side at a time to put a floor jack under it and raise it high enough to put it all together. The reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 stars is because of only two miner problems that I found. One was the Positive battery cable from the battery to the starter rubs against the center vertical frame rail. I had to put a rubber guard around the cable with zip ties to protect it from grounding out against the frame if it rubbed through in the future. The second problem was the way that the gas line from the tank to the motor was routed. It goes at a angle downward coming out of the tank and then it goes up over a center rail and back down to the motor. I will drill a hole in the cross rail and install a rubber grommet so the fuel line will have a straighter path from the tank to the motor. Other than that it is very well made. I only had to put oil in the motor, put gas in the tank, and hook up the battery. It did not take but a few seconds to start up the first time. I ran it for awhile in both modes and it worked just like it was made to do. I ran some of my power tools to see how it managed the different loads and I found no other problems. I always look to buy things made in the USA and this is far and beyond better than foreign made junk and if I need parts in the future there is a dealer not to far from where I live. If this generator is the size you need I highly recommend it.
All generators include 24 hour delivery notification and residential delivery. Liftgate service is available on all air-cooled generators and some liquid cooled units – Please call for verification. Free Shipping is curbside service only. Curbside service means the freight company will deliver to your address and lower your generator to the ground. The freight company will not back down driveways, place a generator in a building or where it is being installed. You are responsible for arranging the movement and setting of the generator.
Some restrictions apply to "Free Shipping" you may either view our

This is one of the strangest kitchen recipes ever: The head chef at a gourmet restaurant, a former McDonald's executive and an investment banker creating — of all things — healthy food.
Love Your Food Everyday, that's the idea that brought them together.
Mill Valley's John Mitchell, the former head chef at Tavern at Lark Creek, is used to serving delicious and decadent delights to an educated and demanding foodie clientele.
McDonald's has taken a lot of flack for allegedly promoting a menu loaded with unhealthy foods and light on healthy options. The fast food chain's brass do know about marketing, however.
Investment banker Stephen Sidwell — like a lot of Americans — was unhappy with his weight and his lifestyle. He was constantly on the go and didn't have time to sit down for a healthy meal. He tried the prepared meals advertised on late-night television. He and his wife tried going back to the roots — shopping at the famers markets and cooking their own meals.
"That didn't last," he lamented. "It was expensive, we didn't always have the time or the energy."
That's when he hooked up with a private chef, who's also a food scientist, to cook three meals a day plus snacks for three months. That worked.
That also laid the groundwork for LYFE Kitchen, a Palo Alto restaurant focused on healthy foods. Sidwell teamed with Mitchell and celebrity chefs Art Smith and Tal Ronnen, then recruited former McDonald's chief operating office Mike Roberts and chief communications offer Mike Donahue to help lead the executive side.
Six months after the restaurant opened its doors, LYFE Kitchen is making a major move — into Costco of all places.
"We figured this will work because almost everyone shops at Costco, right? Plus, it fits in with their tastings," Donahue said.
LYFE Kitchen's sweet corn chowder, smoky tomato bisque, chicken masala, chimichurri beef and other recipes are already in the refrigerated food section at select Northern California and Nevada outlets, including Novato, Santa Rosa, Mountain View and Redwood City.
"I grew up on Twinkies, HoHo's … Tang was a big one," Mitchell said. "That's another reason why I went to culinary school to become a chef, because I felt 'This isn't right.' We can't just eat packaged foods."
Now Mitchell is hoping to revolutionize the packaged foods industry.
Mitchell made a reputation for himself when he signed on to be head chef at Tavern at Lark Creek in 1990 before he went on to pursue other ventures, including his own restaurant Beautifull. At every stop, he learned to appreciate to bounty of local, organic foods. LYFE Kitchen uses Mary's free-range chicken and Diestel turkey in the Bay Area, but will use local sources for different regions around the country as it expands, according to Sidwell.
"We use locally-produced ingredients whenever possible in our foods," Mitchell said of LYFE Kitchen menu, both in the restaurant and in the frozen food aisle.
The theory behind the new line of foods is each meal is 500 calories or less and has less than 5,000 mg of sodium per serving, with no additives or preservatives. Butter, cream and high fructose corn syrup rare banned from the kitchen. Mitchell mixes yogurt into the rice for a creamy texture.
The food, packaged for convenient and easy preparation, tastes more like it was made in a kitchen and not a factory.
"We start and we finish with great taste," Sidwell said.
Sidwell's goal is to make the food healthy, tasty and — at $10 for 4-6 servings — affordable.
Mitchell hopes to bring LYFE Kitchen to other retail stores as well. His new recipes could eventually land next to Whole Foods' 365 brand foods, which he also helped develop.
Live To Eat, Or Eat To Live?
Local chef John Mitchell is hoping to bring healthy food to the masses with LYFE Kitchen's new venture into the aisles at CostCo.
This is one of the strangest kitchen recipes ever: The head chef at a gourmet restaurant, a former McDonald's executive and an investment banker creating — of all things — healthy food.

Lippman, the author of the award-winning Tess Monaghan, P.I. series, may be in line for more awards for this stand-alone novel, a powerful tale of two young girls and the crimes in which they may be involved.
The events surrounding the disappearance of infant Olivia Barnes aren't clear. Fifth-graders Ronnie Fuller and Alice Manning were walking home when they found the baby in an unattended carriage in front of a home. After their knocks on the door failed to elicit a response, they took Olivia to keep her safe. The baby later was found dead, and Ronnie and Alice were held responsible, serving seven years in juvenile detention. Now, after they're released at 18, a toddler goes missing, and Ronnie and Alice are the prime suspects.
Lippman deeply involves readers with those affected by the crimesthe families of the victims and the suspects, the investigators, the attorneys and, of course, the suspects themselves. Emotion runs high as Lippman's plot unfolds, and the story and characters will captivate the reader from the opening scene to the stunning conclusion. (Sep., 388 pp., $24.95)

Shelves and Rods
Get MoreSubscribe to Martha Stewart Living
Make these essential closet components fit your needs and work for you. Here are some possibilities. The shelves in the closet shown are adjustable thanks to peg-in-hole supports. And no snags here: Smooth vinyl matting, normally used to protect drafting tables, is cut to fit each shelf and fixed in place with double-sided tape. Stainless steel shelves provide another solution; they can be adjusted without tools. If your sweater collection grows, another shelf can always be added. Archival and metal boxes (1), neatly set in rows, store small things, like gloves and socks. A single closet rod usually leaves the space under shirts and skirts unused; rods (2) that take both short and long items into account leave no space empty and as a result render sections roomy. The step stool folds for easy storage.

I've used the vinyl they sell at home improvement stores for shower lining. It's almost exactly like the drafting table stuff, and lot more cost-effective. It cuts easily with scissors or a utility knife, and you can even trace the measurements out on it with a Sharpie. The only downside is that it only comes in gray.Reply
MHolguin 29 Jan, 2009
I am having trouble locating the vinyl matting for the shelves. Has anyone had any luck?Reply
pamlakman 29 Jan, 2009
I've found them at a hardware store. They come in different sizes. You might need to get the right size drill bit at the same time to avoid drilling a [filtered word] that doesn't hold the support piece.Reply

Actually, the smaller image IS illustrating how to adhere double-sided tape to the back of drafting table vinyl cover. That material is cream on one side and green on the other.
But I agree, there should have been more pictures to accompany other aspects of the article.Reply

On my 12,000+ MQM mileage run next week I will overnight in SJC but all the SPG hotels close to the SJC airport are way too much money (well too many SPG points as I try never ever to pay for a hotel room with "money")! I love that either cash, cash & points or all points count this year for stay credits toward my Platinum status.
Anyway, I found a deal on a car from Enterprise for $8.88 plus tax and the all in rental, even with gas, should not cost me more than $20! This way I will drive a few miles to a hotel and save 6000 SPG points that are worth almost $100 to me. But that is not this deal.
This Enterprise deal is $9.99 / day for off-airport locations and for weekend rentals. You can stretch it a bit if you play with the pick-up and drop-off times. But please keep in mind you are LIMITED how many miles you can drive on this deal to 100 miles per day but over a 2 or 3 day weekend rental most times that is enough for my needs.
Lastly, (and this must have been what broke Delta.com yesterday ), there is a 2x miles offer in/out of some SEA flights and, are you ready, ANYONE can register! I am SHOCKED! – René

Sleek (1) vs JT II (5)
The logo I designed is flawed, but it was my inspiration moving forwards. I thought it would be nice to bring back the old Raptors text (for nostalgic purposes more than anything, and to commemorate our 20th year). I have also submitted a more subtle, minimalist design that I think fits in nicely with what the rest of the league are doing.
Vote: Sleek vs JT II
Fierce (2) vs Boost (6)
Canada's NBA team requires a more fierce and professional identity to ignite a fan-base with renewed optimism for the future.
Raptors is an already well-established brand. It just needs small modifications in the logo and image to give it a boost/upgrade that it needs to make it a winner's team! So, my focus was to make it SERIOUS and FEARSOME-POWERFUL. Take the Raptor's funny looking body away, make the pupil disappear, sharper and much more dazzling font used, highlights and shadows to make a serious remark. View the full suite of logos here (PDF).

A Hamden man was arrested over the weekend for a burglary at the Jefferson Arms Apartment complex last month.
The incident happened on Sept. 30, when police got a report of suspicious activity at the complex on Whitney Avenue, according to police spokesman Capt. Ronald Smith.
Officers found that someone had entered four storage lockers and taken several items valued at about $200, he said.
Officer William May investigated the incident and developed a suspect, Smith said, and submitted a warrant to the court for David Arzuaga, 21, of 58 Michael Rd., Hamden.
On Sunday, Officer Joseph Liguori saw Arzuaga and arrested him, Smith said. He was charged with four counts of third-degree burglary, third-degree criminal mischief, third-degree criminal and sixth-degree larceny.
Arzuaga posted $1,000 bond and is scheduled to appear in Meriden Superior Court on October 26th.

'Zero Dark Thirty': Mesmerizing, intelligent, difficult
By Glenn Kenny, Special to MSN Movies
"Zero Dark Thirty" is a Rorschach test disguised as a geopolitical thriller. The new movie from the filmmaking team of screenwriter Mark Boal and director Kathryn Bigelow, who were behind the multi-Oscar-winning Iraq War nail-biter "The Hurt Locker," could be seen as a sort of companion piece to the 2009 film. It tells, in a temporally staggered fashion (some of its episodes are separated by years), the story of the hunt for and the eventual killing of Osama, or Usama, bin Laden, the al-Qaida leader who conceived and ordered the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on New York and Washington, D.C. I note the alternate spelling of "Osama" because throughout the picture the object of the hunt is referred to as "UBL," and there's nobody there to hand-hold you as to what that means because you're kind of expected to know.
Search: More on Jessica Chastain | More on Jason Clarke
Knowing and not knowing are two of the most crucial themes of the movie. Its main character, given the name Maya by Boal and Bigelow (and apparently based on a covert CIA operative dubbed Jen in the recent book "No Easy Day," about the raid that netted the bin Laden kill), knows that the capture or elimination of bin Laden is an absolutely crucial action. She and other agents base their various decisions on pieces of data, which, combined in a certain way, convince them that they in fact "know" something. "In other words, you want it to be true," one character dryly notes of another's conclusions midway through the film, hoping to achieve a deflation. Sometimes the actions taken based on what is "known" to be "true" yield a tragic result. Actually, if you look at it a certain way, the result is always tragic. The profound sleight-of-hand of this movie is that while moving as if it is telling you things, it's in fact always asking questions.
It does this from the very first moments. The movie opens with a title, "September 11, 2001" and then a black screen and an audio track from a (we assume) real-life 911 call whose cutoff we all know means death. And here there's a question of taste, and whether the movie will earn the right to use this aural documentary within its fictional re-creation of subsequent events. The unease continues in a scene in which Dan (Jason Clarke), a burly, bearded CIA interrogator, leads newly in-country operative Maya (Jessica Chastain) into a hellish hut where a captured al-Qaida operative steels his weakened self in anticipation of the beating he knows he's about to get. Watching Dan torture the fellow (Dan's refrain is "You lie to me, and I hurt you"), Maya, who we are to understand as a sort of audience surrogate, cowers just a bit at the sight of what's going on. She's gonna stop this, right? She's the hero, torture is wrong, she's gonna stop it and she's gonna teach this other knucklehead the right way to get information, right?
Well, no. At one point, the detainee, Ammar (Reda Kateb), looks at Maya somewhat plaintively and, cold as ice, she tells him, "You can help yourself by being truthful." (And there's that word!) Soon a little carrot is alternated with stick, and Ammar does give up a kernel of information that proves very useful. If you've read other reviews of the film or some ruminations by various representatives of the op-ed punditocracy, you know that this depiction has got the undergarments of several persons in a bunch, who blather that the movie puts a stamp of approval on activities that run counter to American values. Oh my. One such pundit has gone so far as to blather, "I'm betting Dick Cheney will love" the movie, because, wow, how awful will that be?
In fact, "Zero Dark Thirty" is up to something entirely more profoundly unsettling than even what the people who "worry" that it is "pro-torture" might intuit. The movie does not privilege any of the ideologies that perpetuate either jihadist rhetoric or bromides about United States values. Instead, it depicts events, meticulously, with great cinematic virtuosity that is nonetheless careful not to show its hand, such as it is. And it throws all of these events, as seemingly contradictory as they might seem in what they "say," into your lap. Its occasional use of title cards for individual episodes deliberately belies the idea of total objectivity (these terse titles are dryly sardonic and near-literary in their irony), an admission that such a thing is impossible. That the movie achieves its highly cerebral aim while still "working" as a suspenseful fact-based procedural is what carries it into the realm of great cinema.
As terrific as "The Hurt Locker" was, "Zero Dark Thirty" makes that film look like a dress rehearsal for this. Anchored by a magnificent, sometimes shocking performance by Chastain, who leads a largely fantastic cast (Jennifer Ehle, playing a semi-friendly agency rival, gives one of a dozen or more other superb performances), the movie has a sweep and a scope that's enormous but never grandiose. Not a single shot is devoted to "oh, look at this far-flung location" throat-clearing or nudging; every second of film counts. As disturbing as it often is to watch, it's so rife with sheer cinematic material that it's likely to reward multiple viewings.

Early works
Windsor Forest was near enough to London to permit Pope's frequent visits there. He early grew acquainted with former members of John Dryden's circle, notably William Wycherley, William Walsh, and Henry Cromwell. By 1705 his Pastorals were in draft and were circulating among the best literary judges of the day. In 1706 Jacob Tonson, the leading publisher of poetry, had solicited their publication, and they took the place of honour in his Poetical Miscellanies in 1709.
This early emergence of a man of letters may have been assisted by Pope's poor physique. As a result of too much study, so he thought, he acquired a curvature of the spine and some tubercular infection, probably Pott's disease, that limited his growth and seriously impaired his health. His full-grown height was 4 feet 6 inches (1.4 metres), but the grace of his profile and fullness of his eye gave him an attractive appearance. He was a lifelong sufferer from headaches, and his deformity made him abnormally sensitive to physical and mental pain. Though he was able to ride a horse and delighted in travel, he was inevitably precluded from much normal physical activity, and his energetic, fastidious mind was largely directed to reading and writing.
When the Pastorals were published, Pope was already at work on a poem on the art of writing. This was An Essay on Criticism, published in 1711. Its brilliantly polished epigrams (e.g., A little learning is a dangerous thing, To err is human, to forgive, divine, and For fools rush in where angels fear to tread), which have become part of the proverbial heritage of the language, are readily traced to their sources in Horace, Quintilian, Boileau, and other critics, ancient and modern, in verse and prose; but the charge that the poem is derivative, so often made in the past, takes insufficient account of Pope's success in harmonizing a century of conflict in critical thinking and in showing how nature may best be mirrored in art.
The well-deserved success of An Essay on Criticism brought Pope a wider circle of friends, notably Richard Steele and Joseph Addison, who were then collaborating on The Spectator. To this journal Pope contributed the most original of his pastorals, The Messiah (1712), and perhaps other papers in prose. He was clearly influenced by The Spectator's policy of correcting public morals by witty admonishment, and in this vein he wrote the first version of his mock epic, The Rape of the Lock (two cantos, 1712; five cantos, 1714), to reconcile two Catholic families. A young man in one family had stolen a lock of hair from a young lady in the other. Pope treated the dispute that followed as though it were comparable to the mighty quarrel between Greeks and Trojans, which had been Homer's theme. Telling the story with all the pomp and circumstance of epic made not only the participants in the quarrel but also the society in which they lived seem ridiculous. Though it was a society where
Britain's statesmen oft the fall foredoom
Of foreign tyrants, and of nymphs at home;
as if one occupation concerned them as much as the other, and though in such a society a young lady might do equally ill to
Stain her honour, or her new brocade;
Forget her pray'rs, or miss a masquerade;
Pope managed also to suggest what genuine attractions existed amid the foppery. It is a glittering poem about a glittering world. He acknowledged how false the sense of values was that paid so much attention to external appearance, but ridicule and rebuke slide imperceptibly into admiration and tender affection as the heroine, Belinda, is conveyed along the Thames to Hampton Court, the scene of the rape:
But now secure the painted vessel glides,
The sunbeams trembling on the floating tides:
While melting music steals upon the sky,
And soften'd sounds along the waters die;
Smooth flow the waves, the zephyrs gently play,
Belinda smil'd, and all the world was gay.
A comparable blend of seemingly incompatible responseslove and hate, bawdiness and decorum, admiration and ridiculeis to be found in all Pope's later satires. The poem is thick with witty allusions to classical verse and, notably, to Milton's Paradise Lost. The art of allusion is an element of much of Pope's poetry.
Pope had also been at work for several years on Windsor-Forest. In this poem, completed and published in 1713, he proceeded, as Virgil had done, from the pastoral vein to the georgic and celebrated the rule of Queen Anne as the Latin poet had celebrated the rule of Augustus. In another early poem,Eloisa to Abelard, Pope borrowed the form of Ovid's heroic epistle (in which an abandoned lady addresses her lover) and showed imaginative skill in conveying the struggle between sexual passion and dedication to a life of celibacy.

State police and officers from Killington and Rutland City, who used a police dog, tracked down Robinson and took him into custody.
Dorsey was held in Rutland jail on $50,000 bail, while Robinson was lodged on $20,000 bail. Both Dorsey and Robinson are expected to be arraigned today in Rutland criminal court.MORE IN This Just InStaff Report Full StoryBENNINGTON — A local man was killed in a one-car accident Saturday.

Sunday River Resort Invests $5.7 Million
Press Release
Capital allocated to new terrain park trail, snowmaking, restaurant and glades
Newry, Maine (Winter 2013/14)-Sunday River Resort announced back in April that it will benefit from $5.7 million in capital investments for the coming 2013/14 season. Resort enhancements include snowmaking upgrades, the debut of T72-a new 15-acre terrain park trail, and Camp-a brand new resort restaurant. Additional projects include roadwork into The Glades at Ridge Run real estate development, 60 acres of new and enhanced glades, and lodging upgrades to resort hotels and condominiums.
"These enhancements are steps in turning our resort vision into a reality and are projects that would not be possible without the commitment and support of our parent company, Boyne Resorts, and our homeowners," Dana Bullen, Resort President and General Manager at Sunday River, says.
Snowmaking Upgrades
For this coming winter, Sunday River has installed 224 new energy efficient SV10 Impulse snowguns manufactured by HKD Snowmakers. As part of the resort's commitment to improved snowmaking, Sunday River began converting its older snowmaking equipment to SV10s back in 2010, and last year, the resort installed 300 SV10s across Locke Mountain, White Cap, and Barker Mountain.Trails with this year's new SV10s include: Lollapalooza, Rogue Angel, T72, and the upper half of Risky Business.
Terrain Park Trail
Sunday River will also debut T72-a 15-acre dedicated terrain park trail that will feature a jump line, 500-foot superpipe, and rail park. This trail is being designed in partnership with X Games medalist and 2014 Olympic hopeful, Simon Dumont, and Snow Park Technologies (SPT) best known for their work on X Games courses.
T72 is located on North Peak between the resort's Dream Maker and 3D trails - a site recommended to the resort by SPT - and is serviced by the North Peak Express and Chondola high-speed lifts.
Based on an ideal pitch for freestyle terrain and a straight fall line, T72 will encompass 15 acres and measure 200 feet wide and 2,300 feet in length. The upper elevation of the trail will be 1,970 feet and the lower elevation will be 1,260 feet for a vertical drop of 710 feet.
T72 replaces the Rocking Chair Terrain Park and Superpipe located on Barker and Locke Mountains, and is the new home of Simon Dumont's signature event-the Dumont Cup (March 28-29, 2014).
60 Acres of Gladed Terrain
In addition to the new 15-acre terrain park trail, Sunday River will also unveil two enlarged glades-Hardball and Chutzpah-as well as three newly-cut ones which skiers and snowboarders will find on North Peak, Aurora, and Oz for a total of 60 acres of additional skiable terrain.
By Christmas, Sunday River will open its doors to Camp-a new restaurant with a seating capacity of 300 people. Camp will be the resort's hottest gathering place featuring an extensive wine list and menu that celebrates Maine comfort food done right.Camp will be located in the Grand Summit Hotel and will utilize approximately 5,500 square feet of flexible space and have the ability to transition from an intimate restaurant to a larger event space as needed.
History at a Glance
To date, Sunday River has benefited from over $35 million in capital enhancements since joining the Boyne Resorts family back in 2007, including a Chondola lift, night skiing, snowmaking upgrades, hotel enhancements, and resort activities like Zipline Tours and Twin Zips.
For more information on any of these projects, contact Darcy Morse, Director of Communications for Sunday River at firstname.lastname@example.com or 207-824-5243.
About Sunday River: A true four-season destination, Sunday River is home to the snowmaking capital of the world with eight interconnected peaks of world-class skiing and snowboarding and the most slopeside lodging in the East including two Resort Hotels. In the summer months, the resort offers 20 miles of lift-serviced mountain biking, Zipline Tours, and golf at the highly acclaimed Sunday River Golf Club.

The Mets were trying to secure their first series victory since they took two of three from the Phillies during the week of July 4th, and boy did they come out swinging. The offense gave Chris Young a four run lead in the top of the first, and they didn't turn back.
Mets Offensive Highlights:
Ironically enough, the first inning rally got started with a two-out walk issued to David Wright. Scott Hairston also walked, and Daniel Murphy was hit with a pitch to load the bases for Jason Bay, who finally woke up a little with a two-run single. Following that, Ronny Cedeno drove in the next two with a double. Once again with two outs in the second inning, Andres Torresdoubled, and Wright brought in the fifth run with a single. New York was on cruise control and started adding insurance runs in the fifth, as Murphy and
Cedeno both contributed with run-scoring singles. The last bit of scoring happened in the seventh, as Cedeno drove in the two final runs with another double.
Giants Offensive Highlights:
There weren't many highlights on offense today for the Giants, but Melky Cabrera doubled and tripled (part of a three-hit day), as he scored the only run, on a Hunter Pence sacrifice fly. The only other San Francisco player to get a hit was Brandon Belt, as the Giants only had two at-bats with runners in scoring position, going 0-for-2.
Pitching Highlights:
Chris Young was fantastic today, as he went 7 innings, giving up 1 run on 4 hits and no walks, to go along with 4 strikeouts for his third win of the season. Elvin Ramirez and Ramon Ramirez teamed up to throw two hitless innings in relief to preserve the win, even though they each issued one walk.
Barry Zito didn't last very long, as he threw 4.1 innings this afternoon, allowing 7 runs on 6 hits and 3 walks, while striking out only one hitter. Shane Loux had the task of providing some long relief, and he got touched up for two runs on four hits in his 2.1 innings of work. Sergio Romo and Clay Hensley struck out 4 and gave up 1 hit over the last 2.1 innings, but it was too little, too late for Bruce Bochy's squad.
Worth Noting:
All three of Cedeno's hits produced runs this afternoon, as his five RBI tied a career high for the infielder. After struggling all series with runners in scoring position, New York went 6-for-13, mostly because 8 of their 9 runs scored with two outs. The first four hitters in the lineup all collected a hit, with Murphy being the only other player to enjoy a multi-hit game. Ruben Tejada is on an 8-game-hitting streak.
The victory gives New York a 52-54 record, as they are 11 games behind the Nationals and they still remain 8 games back in the Wild Card.
Probable Pitchers Friday:
New York travels to San Diego for the last stop on their West Coast swing, and they turn to R.A. Dickey (14-2, 2.83 ERA) to help them get three wins in a row. The knuckleballer will be opposing Clayton Richard (7-11, 4.14 ERA). First pitch at Petco Park is set for 10:05pm EST.

Fenway Park is still quiet. Batting practice is over, and fans are starting to arrive for a game against the Colorado Rockies. Dustin Pedroia, in full uniform, stands alone in the dugout, holding the barrel of his black Marucci pro model bat to his ear.
He smacks it hard with the palm of his hand and listens intently. He can gauge the soundness of the wood by what he hears, he says. "People don't believe me, but I can tell if something is wrong with the bat. You have to listen close."

526 Tasting Notes
My last cup of Lady Grey. I have to admit that I did develop a fondness for the Lady hot with milk. It was a very nice afternoon drink. I don't see myself going out to get this tea again but I don't see myself turning a cup away either.
Final Score: 50
This tea makes a great bowl of oatmeal. I made the oatmeal with a little bit more tea than I did last time so the consistency wasn't as gluey. Just drizzling the agave over the oatmeal tasted much better than stirring it in too. I think I finally broke my addiction to using tons of butter, cream, and brown sugar! This way is much tastier and better for you without all of that butter and sugar.
I had to explain to mom what I was doing. She was making faces at me when I was making my oatmeal.
I had the rest of the tea with a little bit of milk. It is definitely a punch you in the face kind of tea. I don't see myself drinking this all the time but I could see myself getting different samplers of it to see how it tastes from different companies.
Never would have thought of using tea to make oatmeal. Interesting idea, though. Did you use milk in the oatmeal as well?
Says I didn't but there is nothing preventing you from using milk in the oatmeal. I just poured some freshly brewed hot tea over plain dry oats.
That is how you know I've been doing Plurk/Twitter for too long. I typed in "says" before my comment. lol!
Do not forget this tea when you are making it. I came back to pick it up and it was strong! Good but strong. I made this using the extra water left over from having tea with mom. I also added 2 tablespoons of our family's cocoa mix and a splash of milk in it. It was really good. The tea and the cocoa just blended together. The cocoa didn't overpower the tea at all.
When I was making a cup of English Breakfast my boy decided to make himself a cup of this. I had a few mouthfuls and it wasn't that bad. It didn't taste as strong as it could have because he had a big glass of water for one little teabag. This was my first time tasting ginger tea so I'm surprised that the ginger wasn't that strong.
I'm not sure what my impression is on this one. I would try it again but I would want to make it over at my house where I don't have to use water from an instant coffee maker.
I made myself a cup of this when I was over at my boyfriend's house. I used hot water from their 1-cup instant coffee maker. I had enough sense to run a cup through before putting my teabag in to try to clear out most of the coffee taste. It still had a little bit of coffee residue but didn't alter the taste of the tea by much. I put a little bit of organic milk in too.
Apparently my internet decided to not work for me for a second. Just a long enough second that I couldn't copy the note that I had just written.
It has been rainy today and I ended up reaching for the Lady since I don't want to give up on her yet. This time I put milk in my mug before I added the teabag and the boiling water. This allowed the perfumed taste to not be as apparent and made it quite pleasant.
I think the Lady is going to become the staple for my "meh" teas. I would drink it if I was offered it but I wouldn't go out of my way to pick it up anywhere.
I was making a salad and decided that I wanted a cup of tea more than I wanted a glass of Coke. So I decided to drink this tea. Now, to be fair this tea is probably nearing two years old and tasted fine to me last Tuesday. But now I know what I was tasting in the tea was the sugar I added to try to remove the not good taste.
I remember really liking this tea when I got it but not drinking it because I was brewing it too hot and making it bitter. Now, it just doesn't taste good compared to my other green tea. Maybe it is the age or maybe it is the brand. I don't know. What I do know is that I got rid of my last four teabags of this because I'm not going to enjoy drinking it.
I think I get hungry with the time. I know my body isn't telling me to eat because I just ate two hours ago and I'm still full. It is physiological. So, I break out the tea.
My brother came home from school early (half day) so I offered to make him a cup of tea as well. He chose Tension Tamer from Celestial Seasonings. I'm actually surprised anyone in the house likes it.
I got water ready and decided it is time for some Irish Breakfast. I picked out a bigger cup than usual so I might have had twice as much water than what I normally use but I don't think it is much of a problem for this tea. It is really bold. It really reminds me of coffee and smells a little bit like my dad's decaf JFG coffee to me. It would be really good first thing in the morning.
I put a little bit of milk in it with some agave nectar. It smoothed out the flavor a bit into something a little bit more low key for right now. Not by much though since I didn't put that much milk in it. I had my brother try a little bit of it and he likes it. In fact, if I can get up early enough, he would like to have a cup before school. I think I would make it with a little more milk for him. Possibly only a 3 minute steep too so it would help him wake up better but not be too strong for him. He normally drinks herbal tea.
I do like it right now but I'm not really sure what to think about it. I think I would have to drink it a couple more times to really get an opinion on it. I do know one thing, I would probably get some packets of this to help me wake up in the morning at school. It would help wake me up since I am not a morning person and actually help me stay awake. That would be a good thing considering that I have an "early" class at 9 for next semester. And one of them actually requires thought while the other requires I be awake because it is physical activity.

The tourist season in Paris has officially begun!! I honestly heard more English on the metro today than I did French. And I'm not okay with it. I now understand why all the Parisians leave Paris during the summer. The metro was crowded with tourists who acted as though they'd never been on a metro before. Standing in all the wrong places; not moving when someone is trying to get off the train; asking for directions in loud, slow English, as if the French people they are speaking to are stupid. Sure, I'm used to tourists in Chicago, but the culture difference seemed to make it worse here. And as a Parisian for three months now, I feel like I am on the side of the French. I like to consider myself a good American, who keeps her mouth shut and makes it barely noticeable that she is American. But the tourists of tourist season are very different. It took away from the magic of the city and I just wanted to tell everyone to leave! Paris is my city..not their's! And I don't feel like sharing.
Enough of my ranting!! Other than the very crowded metro, I had a very nice day in the city! My friend Armando got me up at the crack of dawn to go on a walking tour before we had to be at the Musee D'Orsay for our art history class at 11. This tour was about the military and very interesting! It took us through Les Invalides, the old military home built by Napoleon. His tomb is housed in the church there and we were able to see the backside of it! We also saw a beautiful view of the Eiffel Tower (there are a lot of those!) and the intersection where Princess Di had her fatal car crash, among many other things. It was a beautiful morning in Paris and a great time for a walking tour!
Napoleon's tomb is the very intricate thing behind the glass
The courtyard of Les Invalides
Good morning Paris!
Unfortunately, we had to end our morning tour and head over to the Musee D'Orsay for a long afternoon of art history…five hours to be exact! Thankfully we are learning about a period that is interesting to me, post-impressionism. We got to see a lot of Van Gogh, Gauguin, and Cross. Before I came to Paris, this would have meant nothing to me, but I'm pretty proud to say that I know quite a bit now! Our professor treated us to drinks at a cafe after class which was nice. I ordered a chocolate milk shake, which doesn't mean quite the same thing in France. Turns out a milk shake is literally shaken milk, flavored in whatever flavor you want. So it turns out to be chocolate milk with a foam layer on top. But it was still very refreshing!
After class, I headed home. The clouds were coming in and it looked like rain. Plus, it had been a long day and I felt like a relaxing evening at home. I always feel guilty when I just stay in all night, especially when I'm down to just over a week left in Paris. But you need that every now and then. I promise to be very productive tomorrow!
Speaking of tomorrow, I'm headed to Normandy in the evening to meet up with Gersende who has been out there for the weekend for a friend's wedding. She invited me to meet up with her Saturday night for a BBQ at a friend's house. Then we are going to spend Sunday with her mom and head back to Paris in the evening. I'm looking forward to spending some time with her since it has been a while! And to see her mom again who is a very precious lady!
Also, yesterday when I was out for my run, I ran past the Bastille, as I usually do. For a while now there have been students gathering there by the Opera with signs, banners, flyers, and what not, protesting about something which is very common in France and Europe in general. It all seemed pretty small and harmless, but yesterday when I ran by there were about 40 policemen lined up shoulder to shoulder in the area where the students had been gathering, not allowing anyone in the area. I didn't see the students anywhere, so they must have dispersed. But I thought it was interesting that such a small gathering attracted so many officers. I wish I knew what they had been protesting, but I never stopped to look.
The same thing was going on in Barcelona when we were there, only bigger. There was a large gathering of students in the park right by our hostel, and it ended up turning violent, by the authorities that is. At one point in the weekend, the police showed up to break up the group and ended up shooting them with rubber bullets and water hoses. It sounded pretty crazy. Of course, that broke them up, but they came back stronger and bigger! Here are some pictures that I got while I was there.
The entrance to the park
One of their many signs..it says "If you won't let us dream, then we won't let you sleep"
A very fancy sleeping quarter in the group!
I do know that in Barcelona, they were protesting because unemployment and underemployment are very high. They want jobs! Doesn't sound too different from the US. But it's just interesting to me how common protests are in Europe. We just don't have that history in the States. It takes a pretty big cause for large masses of people to be out in the streets and that just doesn't happen often. In Europe, a new protest is almost as common as the morning paper. Just makes you wonder why that is…

My sister got me the Perks of Being a Wallflower for my birthday and I finished it in under 24 hours. My HEART!!
This was my favorite passage from the book - the protagonist Charlie talking about the mix tape he makes for his friend Patrick for Christmas.
"I had an amazing feeling when I finally held the tape in my hand. I just thought to myself that in the palm of my hand, there was this one tape that had all of these memories and feelings and great joy and sadness. Right there in the palm of my hand. And I thought about how many people have loved those songs. And how many people got through a lot of bad times because of those songs. And how many people enjoyed good times with those songs. And how much those songs really mean. I think it would be great to have written one of those songs. I bet if I wrote one of them, I would be very proud. I hope the people who wrote those songs are happy. I hope that they feel it's enough. I really do because they've made me happy. And I'm only one person."
I love this part so much. <3

One of my favorite things about running a website is seeing what types of recipes and content people are drawn to.
I've basically learned that it's impossible to predict what will catch on.
I've written posts that I was positive people would love and share with others and they fizzle and die within a day or two.
Meanwhile, there are posts that I wrote years ago that are still some of the most popular posts on Macheesmo.
Without question, the most popular post of all time on the site is a post I wrote a while ago on breakfast sandwiches. While the method I used in that post still works, I've adapted it over the years based on a bunch of comments from readers so I thought I would share the new version of my breakfast sandwich.
Spinach and Egg Breakfast Sandwiches
- 12 eggs, scrambled
- 2 cups baby spinach
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 6-8 ounces cheese, grated
- 12 whole wheat English muffins
Helpful Equipment
1) Scramble eggs and grease each muffin tin with a bit of butter.
2) Add baby spinach to each tin. Just a few leaves per tin will do the trick.
3) Evenly divide eggs between 12 muffin tins.
4) Bake eggs at 350 degrees for 20-22 minutes until they are cooked through.
5) Pop the eggs out of the tins.
6) To make a sandwich, toast the english muffin, add the cheese and egg. Mash the egg down a bit so it evenly covers the muffin.
7) Bake for a few minutes to melt the cheese.
8) These freeze great. You can either freeze the egg cups without muffins or make the sandwiches and then wrap them in foil and freeze them as completed sandwiches.
9) The individual egg cups reheat perfectly in the microwave. The foil-wrapped sandwiches reheat better in the oven for 30 minutes at 350 degrees (keep them wrapped in the foil).
Cooking the Eggs
In my original post, I cooked the eggs whole in the muffin tins and while that looked cool it wasn't always reliable. If you had eggs of difference sizes then some might not be entirely cooked and some might be overcooked.
So I do it a bit differently these days.
It's not rocket science, but basically I just scramble the eggs before cooking them which makes sure that they cook evenly.
I like to add a few tablespoons of water to my 12 eggs and then I just lightly scramble them with a fork.
A number of commenters said that the eggs were sticking in their muffin tins when they made these.
There's only one way to avoid this consistently: butter. If you use nonstick spray or whatever, don't come yelling at me if it doesn't work. I use butter and it works like a charm.
You just need a light layer of it coating the whole muffin tin.
While you can just do the eggs, I've started adding in things to my eggs while they cook.
I generally don't eat a lot of meat in the mornings, but you could definitely add some crumbled sausage or ham to the tins. I went with spinach though on this occasion.
Almost anything that you could put in an omelet would work here.
Then just evenly divide the eggs in the tins. Obviously it should be about an egg per tin and the tins will be about 3/4 full.
Baking the Eggs
Bake these guys at 350 degrees for about 20-22 minutes and they should be perfectly cooked. Be sure to check them to make sure the very centers are cooked through. If they aren't, then cook them for a few extra minutes.
Once they cool for a few minutes, the egg cups should easily slide out of the tins.
Making/storing the Sandwiches
There are basically three ways to deal with storing these bad boys.
Eat them immediately
You just made some delicious sandwiches so plan on eating one or two of them right away. I like to toast my muffin and then add some cheese to it. Then I just toss on one of the egg cups and press it down a bit so the egg squashes out to the edges of the muffin.
Then I bake it for a few minutes to melt the cheese and eat it. Delicious!
Make the Sandwiches – Freeze the Sandwiches
This is my preferred method of storing the sandwiches. I just cut a muffin in half, add some cheese to it, and toss on the egg cup.
Then I wrap the whole thing in foil and store all the individually wrapped sandwiches in a large freezer-safe bag.
Once they are frozen they keep fine for months.
Freeze Just the Eggs
A number of commenters mentioned that this is their preferred way to store these and it works great.
Basically, once you pop all the egg cups out, let them cool briefly and then wrap each egg cup in plastic wrap (or foil) and store the individually wrapped eggs in a freezer safe bag.
This method cuts down on the freezer space you'll need and some people think that the egg by itself reheats better than the whole sandwich.
Reheating the Sandwiches
If you just froze the eggs, reheating is very easy. Just unwrap the egg and microwave it on high for about 90-120 seconds. Then toast the muffin and add some cheese if you want.
Sandwich done!
If you froze the whole sandwiches, which is my preferred method, you can also unwrap them and heat them in the microwave.
The best way to reheat them though is in the oven. Just toss the frozen sandwich (still wrapped in foil) in the oven at 350 degrees for 30 minutes and the finished sandwich will be as good as on day one.
30 minutes? You're crazy!
About 20% of the hundreds of comments on the original post say that my reheating method doesn't make sense. After all, it takes 30 minutes for the sandwich to cook!
Here's the thing though… when it comes to prep time in the morning, there is no active time needed for the oven method. You don't need to stand over your oven while the sandwich reheats.
The idea is that you wake up, toss the sandwich in the oven, take a shower, get ready to go, and then as you are leaving… BAM… your sandwich is done.
I don't know anyone who gets out of the door faster than 30 minutes after waking up so you just let the sandwich cook while you are doing other stuff.
It works like a charm and you're left with a really delicious breakfast any day of the week.
I still make these sandwiches pretty regularly and they are a great way to start the day.
