Last night I dreamed about eating spaghetti sandwiches.

I even dreamed that there was a wikipedia article for them.

I was pleased to learn this morning that this is, in fact, the case.


A Further Post Regarding Lemon Pig

This was the “recipe” post that inspired Lemon Pig, something I saw on twitter a few years ago, but failed to do.

But when it came around again this year, I had to join in. I’m quite proud of my wonky-eyed lemon pig. As soon as it was made, I gave it to my friends children, my honorary niece and nephews, who used it to keep away a “mysterious thing” they heard making noise outside (it was the wind). When they went to bed they took Lemon Pig with them, and I heard them yelling “Good night, Lemon Pig!! Good luck!!”

I’m never again going to miss out on making a Lemon Pig for New Years.


These fake faces make me DEEPLY uncomfortable, and not only for how they’re being used. Looking at them makes my brain hurt and yell “but they’re not real people!”

Consolidating

Note from 2022 Rachel: As I move away from Blot I feel it’s important to note that it’s not fault of David’s or the service in general. Blot is a fantastic way to run a small website! But there are a few things that make the process more manual than I was interested in continuing with in 2022.

With extreme thanks to David @ blot.im, I have now consolidated all of my web presence from 2009 on onto this domain. All of my old Tumblr posts have now been moved onto this site, and are viewable from the archives. Ten years of me on the internet, all under one roof! (Most of my presence before that has been relegated to the archives, more’s the pity.) I also changed some things around slightly, and then entire site is now resting at the top level — that is, there’s no more separation between photos and any of the other posts here. If you used to view photos at photos.rachelpietraszek.com, they’re all still here, there’s just no more subdomain.

I don’t know if I’m going to start to actually blog again, or to share links or things like I used to, but it’s nice to have a home for everything if I do.

Also, I want to make a small plug for blot.im, where this site is hosted. They run a fantastic service, and the support is amazing. Do recommend.
