The thoughts of Johnny Weir

Johnny says: "I performed to Born This Way by Lady Gaga. I did full sparkle crotch because, you know, that's where babies come from, and my baby would be sparkly."

Johnny also says: "Just because its sparkly doesn't mean I'm going to love it."

Conclusion: Johnny's baby would be Edward Cullen, because he's sparkly.  But Johnny may not love him.  That's okay, because Twilight was really terrible.


Johnny says: "I love her usage of proper headbanding."

Conclusion: I didn't think there was such a thing as improper headbanding, but apparently there is.  See below.



(You shouldn't even be surprised that Camilla and an Olsen twin are headband disasters.)

Johnny says: "One hundred points for use of headband on our next team."

Conclusion: I'm going to assume our next team is Princess Diana and Natalie Portman.  In that case, agreed.


Johnny says: "I say we make the nickname "team cheekbones" for them."

Conclusion: I think the team in question must consist of Tom Hiddleston and Benedict Cumberbatch.  I wonder if they would beat the Princess Diana/Natalie Portman headband team.


Johnny says: "I, like many fashionistas, will overpack so I have options everyday. I came with about 10 pairs of shoes, four fur coats, 10 blazers--I have a lot of stuff here. I have four giant suitcases that are the size of the Ford Focuses. I overpack. I'm not an economical packer and no one has every accused me of being that. My advice for when you're going on a trip is to overpack."

Conclusion: Can't agree, Johnny.  NEVER check a bag.  Here's what I think your suitcase looks like:


Johnny says: "Wait! Don't get salt water on my mink."

Johnny also says: "Shiny things attract fish so I should be shiny. I'll wear jewelry. Jewels--I feel like this little piece--pretty fancy. I think that'll do for fishing. That'll be attractive to a fish."

Conclusion: Um, well, I guess you have to admire him for going outside of his comfort zone (even though we can't admire him for wearing fur).  That's nice that he wore a special brooch for the fish.
There are no words.

Johnny says: "Leopard: Fierce, clever, shows its true spots. Also, I live in New Jersey, and if you don't feature leopard print here, you might as well live in the city."

Conclusion: Considering I did a Google image search for "leopard" and "New Jersey" and got the picture below, I think he's right.

And finally...

Johnny says: "For every 1 person bullying me, it is one less bully harassing another individual and for that reason I am strong enough to bear it."


Conclusion: Dammit, Johnny Weir.  Is it dusty in here?

Did you enjoy the fabulous wisdom of Johnny Weir?  Then I hope you'll consider a donation to my March of Dimes walk to save all the sparkly babies!

Freezer Meal #2 - Maple Pork Tenderloin with Apples

This is the second part of my foray in to freezer meals - the first part can be found here  for Cheesy Shells and Italian Sausage. Today we're making a pork and apples recipe adapted from The Pampered Chef.  I love this one--it's so easy to assemble in advance, most of the ingredients you likely already have, and it couldn't be easier to fix the day you want to eat it (dump stuff in pan, bake). So yummy.  And pretty. Maple Pork Tenderloin with Apples For this you'll need the ingredients below.  You probably have the oil, vinegar, garlic, brown sugar, mustard, and bags in your pantry!  You can also easily divide this recipe if you usually only cook for 2-3 people at a time (that's what I do when I make it). 2 pork tenderloins , about 2 pounds total - they can be expensive, so pick these up on sale 3 apples - I prefer honeycrisp but use what you like, or take one of these suggestions 1 small red onion 1/4 cup canola oil 1 clove garlic , press...

New Year, Old Me

And, after a brief 5 year hiatus, we're back! For those of you who are new here, for a number of years I wrote a blog featuring an assortment of things I found interesting: the British Royal Family, sarcastic hot takes on award show fashion, travel, and (the reason I started it) to help me keep stay on track with eating healthier food. Recently, one of my doctors suggested that I start the blog back up and I thought it was a good idea for a few reasons: chief among them to help with some health goals, plus I'd like to use it as a way to stay connected with some colleagues that departed at work. By way of an understatement, 2023 was a smidge rough.   My dad got really sick in April, and after that, it was a slalom of the American healthcare system / in-home healthcare / nursing facilities / ambiguous loss & living grief .  Meanwhile, back at the ranch, the company I work for turned 24 and, well, sometimes 24 year old companies behave like 24 year old humans.  They...

Kate Middleton, Goofball

My new favorite K-Middy gif came out today.  She and William went for a walk during their day off in Australia, and she totally did this: Big Willy and Babykins (their nicknames for each other) have talked about Kate's sense of humor before in interviews.  Apparently she's funny and sarcastic--now we're more than just hair soul mates!  Below are some of my favorite non-posed Kate pics. They're probably watching horses.  So British of them. This is at the Olympics.  She seems concerned. I'd also like to point out that I'm jealous of how good her ponytail looks. It sounds like she's saying "OMG no way!" Man, I hope that's what she's talking about with the fancy church people at the Queen's Diamond Jubilee service. Again, I suspect ponies are involved here. If you watch interviews with her (and I do) she makes this face all the time.  I LOVE IT. Celebrities: they're just like us!  They hide behind their...
