“Your”

You’re attitude about the things going on in your life is disgusting. The beauty behind the concept of the blog is that you have every right to say what you feel, and I respect that. I’m not telling you to be any different, or to stop writing. I’m simply expressing how completely ridiculous I find you to be.

Yup.

Talking the talk vs walking the walk. The latter the measure of a person, the former, an exercise in egotistical justification.

Via @stepthegeek

Hey did you know that I love Twitter? You can follow me @SunnyCrittenden. Don’t forget to say hi! I don’t follow people back unless they actually converse with me on a consistent basis.

Anyway, my friend @stephthegeek, who has a bunch of websites now and I never know which one to link to, tweeted this and I thought it was worth retweeting. However, it was too long so I’m putting it here instead. I also think I’m going to have to start a category for quotes as I seem to be posting a few of them lately.

When you show everything you become free: no one can capture you anymore, since there is nothing left to capture.

Ditto.

A warning: you may be a little shocked at some of the language in this book, and that’s another weaknes of mine. I tell people who come to my cooking class that sometimes I can be a little bawdy and I sure hope that don’t upset them. But I’m my father’s daughter, and I’m banking on one things, and I’m not budging on this: my God has a sense of humor even if what I say has a four-letter word in it. I think He’d want me to laugh. What’s in my heart is not irreverence but a full knowledge that God’s laughing too.

- Paula Deen, It Ain’t All About the Cookin’
