She Says: I’m Sort of a Big Hairy Deal
Today I was asking my twitter friends for advice on picking a hair dresser. Last time I got my hair cut was in December and it’s time. But, I am really particular about hair cuts. Why you ask?
You didn’t know I was a famous hair model in my youth did you? You probably think I took that last week, but I was really about 12.
It’s not the cut that makes me nervous, but the highlights. I am actually really laid back about getting different cuts on a whim and have cut about 10 inches off twice. In law school, however, my hair started getting darker and curlier. Now I have a tremendous amount of grey hair for a 29-year old and highlight it, but highlights on red hair can go terribly terribly wrong, so I get nervous going somewhere new. But it’s been over 6 months and this needs to be done. So, I followed fellow tweeter juliannem‘s advice and used yelp.
These are the current contenders.
If you’ve been to any of these places, please let me know and if you know of any good places in the Montclair, N.J. area let me know as well!
Back to the good eats of the day. I warmed up some of my frozen Sin Dawg and oh my god it’s the best thing ever. It’s like a cinnamon roll, but in wonderful, seedy wheat bread. I can’t even take it.
It’s ooey gooey deliciousness and it’s coming through your computer to you!!!!
For dinner, I made Pasta Fagioli just like my mom, but with a spinach kick. Pasta Fagioli is actually a soup, but I’ve always had it thicker.
Here is my mom’s with kidney beans + chickpeas.
And my version.
It’s super easy to make and makes even better leftovers. I just made my basic quick tomato sauce, plus some extra fresh basil then I added about 2 cups of Kidney Beans and 2 cups of Cannellini Beans. At the last second I decided to up the green quotient and added a package of frozen spinach.
And if you didn’t already, please comment on my Blog it Forward Post. I am trying to get ShopRite to donate more cereal for every comment, so keep it coming!!!!!!
both of these food items look delicous. im remebering that recipe and looking up sin dawgs right now..:P
