Back to Basics.

Crap.

So I've been a little lax on the blogging lately. It happens. I'll bet if you read any of your favorite blogs they take hiatuses. I, however, have no excuse except that I was lazy, a little depressed, and had no motivation. But I'm back people. Back in black. Or rather my new motto, in the vein of Ina Garten: Back to Basics.

And with that, I return to The Alternative Housewife with new pictures, a new outlook, new recipes, and of course, new stories about living with Josh & Clod. We are quite the little group.

Clod, by the way, is enormous now. At 9.5 months he weighs in at roughly 45 lbs. He still makes piles of my shoes and unmentionables when I'm away from the house for extended periods. He has discovered a love of oranges and grapefruits. And most importantly, he is really taking to training. Minus the fact tha tI'm a horrible trainer and just give him treats for no reason. I also allow him on the couch (which apparently is a no-no), talk to him like he's a baby, and let him get away with murder.

I'll be a horrible mother someday (if I ever decide I'm not selfish enough to have kids, that is.)

I started a new job about a month ago and it's basically the best decision of my entire life. Hustling beer is a great gig. Plus I'm learning to cook with it. Posts to follow, I'm sure.

But for now I'll leave you with a little photo of me and Clod. I had it framed for Josh for Christmas and he is right now deciding where he wants it.



Happy 2010, my readership. Here is to more alternative housewife-ship in the future!
