Recipe: Citrus Glazed Mahi Mahi
Teets had a deal on Mahi Mahi, I love me some fish, I love me some citrus flavored fish, and I’ve been in a cooking mood as of late. Following a quick googling, I had a recipe that looked like it’d work. Prep? Cake. Actually, I had Caitlin do that while I went for a run. Upon my arrival, the glaze was simmering and…

Again, it was only on the stove and counters. After some snooping around, they had to have been getting in through…

Premium isn’t really a burden
So yesterday Mom made a comment about how their neighbors bought a car that required premium gas. As the owner of a car that does, I told her that it wasn’t really a big deal. This morning, I realized just how little it affects me: 52 fill ups per year * 10 gallons * $.03 extra (I fill up on Thursdays and Sundays, which…
