Marshmallows

Captain's Log, Stardate 04.14.2010



I'm at Girls, God, and the Good Life today talking about—what else?—food:





Camy here with yet another really random and not very spiritual post. But you all love me anyway, right? Right???



Anyway, I've been on a marshmallow kick since Easter. It's all the fault of those darn Peeps. I love them. I love biting their heads off. (There's some deep psychological meaning behind that, but I'm going to ignore that.)

Citizen's Police Academy

Captain's Log, Stardate 04.13.2010
