Lasitas

 Hello friends! I hope you liked last week's post about my opinions because today, I've got... another post of my opinions. This time, on ice cream. Ben & Jerry's is an iconic brand of decadent ice cream. I was bored on a recent afternoon, so I decided to place every flavor listed on the Ben & Jerry's website onto a tier list. For those unfamiliar with the Street Fighter  inspired tier list, it's mostly letter grade logic (A is the best, F is the worst), but with an additional category of S for Superior and SS for Super Superior (I don't know if that's what it actually stands for, but it is what it means). Now, some of these flavors I haven't had. I was not prepared to spend $50 or more and exhaustively search every store in the region to track down every single unsampled flavor, so I made an educated guess based on the description. This post is NOT sponsored by Ben & Jerry's. And before we get started, don't forget to subscribe for ...

TGIFPF! At long last! My semester has ended, so I have a luxurious several extra hours of free time a week, so, with any luck, FPF will be able to be a regular feature again! Faithful blog followers, I shall grant you an extra-large FPF today in reward for your patient and resourceful survival of the Great FPF Drought. It's like a 7/11 ICEE of FPF. What has Hazel been up to? It's been a while, but you may remember Hazel? The lump of fur I find on my belly many mornings? She finally got her act together and sat in a box like a proper cat. Boxes are no competition for flopping on the floor though. (Also pictured: One glamorous slipper) Hazel threw her arm around me and started licking my hand because we're good friends. Hazel studying for finals. Related: me unable to study for finals Hazel, holding her legs and tail close. One glossy chunk. Tiny, precious feet. Possibly the most valuable item in the known universe. Did you know? Hazel plugs into our bed to charge! Charging i...

 Another week gone by! What has Hazel been up to? Ever get the feeling someone is looking over your shoulder? I gifted Hazel my water bottle. I don't think it was appreciated. In other news... I made a very labor-intensive cake. The labor was more intensive because the batter overflowed all over my oven and started smoking out my kitchen as it burned. In related news, I have a freshly scrubbed oven. In unrelated news, I have a lovely girlfriend who is much more shapely than this cake. I FINALLY made vegan ricotta . I served it with beets, orange vinaigrette , and quinoa. Thanks for stopping by!

 TGIFPF, my friends! What has Hazel been up to? Another chapter in the riveting saga of "Will Hazel ever figure out how to get downstairs?" Hazel made a little dip in the blanket to insert her face. My taking the photo disturbed her. Hazel came to look at me while I sat at my desk. Then set her lasers to Hypnotize. Ever just feel like faceplanting into your bed? Hazel inspects my face after work. If only photos could capture Hazel's purring In other news... I made lemon cheesecake bars! From scratch! Even the crust (if smashing vanilla wafer cookies and mixing them with butter is from scratch) I attended a live virtual event celebrating Paul's new album, under the name State Machines. The photo that displayed during the whole show ensured that Boycat attended in spirit. You can check out the recording  from the event and/or you can check out the new State Machines album . Thanks for stopping by! Do Fridays mean anything to you besides pictures of Hazel? Now that I wor...

 Introducing... Fun Photo Friday! Add TGIFPF to your vocabulary and look forward to weekly updates on Hazelcat! And maybe some guest appearances from some friends like Gracie and Barrett! Also, I do take pictures of things besides cats... sometimes. I am really looking forward to continuing to share Hazel's adorableness with the world, and making it a once a week post instead of a daily one will help me feel less like I need to take some trash photo of Hazel in a dark room just to have something to post for her adoring fans. What has Hazel been up to? I disturbed Hazel's slumber when I woke up and found her next to me like this: But she wasn't disturbed for long... Hazel was in my lap, but I got up to go to the bathroom, and when I came back, she had stolen my blanket in revenge: The sounds of William Basinki lured Hazel to my desk. What a cultured kitty. Hazel demands pets when I get home from work: Dat leg In other news... Mittens Bernie has found himself in Center City ...
