I’m going to write her into my will just so I can write her out of it again
I think the worst thing my one sister has ever done is point out that one of our family members has extremely strong Uncle Colm from Derry Girls vibes because now I can’t interact with that person without thinking omg it’s the shoelaces all over again

The reason why most women my age couldn't care less if Bill Clinton goes down with the ship is that we were teens & young women when the Anita Hill and Monica Lewinsky scandals happened. It's rotten to the core. All the way down. Your "lost" era is not ours.

Made a p*rn star with this last night because I thought that would be the funniest possible drink to make with glitter and the problem is you don’t need the amount of syrup it would take to get a truly glittery drink
I think we all know what this means- time to order a big thing of food glitter

My aunt and I decorated one of my trees this weekend and she’s decided the Mari Lwyd ornament is terrifying so every time I turn my back she takes it off the tree

It is very funny that this Pope is just going to get jerseys from now on. Everyone decided that's what this Pope likes and that is it. It's like if your grandmother got you a puzzle for Christmas one year and you said you liked it so your entire extended family is like "oh that's the puzzle kid"
Spike Lee just blessed Pope Leo with a custom Knicks jersey during his visit to the Vatican, just one week after the Pope was gifted a custom Chicago Bulls one.

My absolute favorite cold weather thing is to have family or friends visit and we just kind of hang out all cozy and I make soups and stews - making four this weekend and it’s just the best

A couple of houses in the neighborhood are on the market or have recently sold and I wish I had a way to adequately convey with words the level of disgust and dismay my aunt has for the fact that I have no idea how much any of them are listed for

Notwithstanding other completely valid criticisms of the Catholic Church, I really need people to understand that the Catholic league is just literally Bill Donahue. It’s just one pathetic old man.

Talking Rome with my aunt and more specifically Tre Scalini, which she has not been to since the 1970s
Me: I thought it was meh at night but M and I enjoyed breakfast there. Really nice vibe in the morning
Her: Yes it does have a good vibe! You know-there was a murder there once.

I give Catholic bishops a hard time often for all the obvious reasons, but this is beautiful and loving, and I'm deeply grateful to hear it. This can change hearts and save lives.

It’s funny because I agree with this 100% but also when we watched Frankenstein it’s the first time I understood people who are into monster fucking fiction like that was one of my top takeaways from the movie

I enjoy getting cook books from other countries and seeing what ingredients are presumably more readily available there that I have never encountered in a grocery store here in my life
Like, yes, let me just pop over to the Acme and pick up some pheasant
