  • Why Lance?

    Because the word blog sounds like something that comes out of a person's nose. This blog is named after my old friend Sarah's manifestation of a dreamy Wyoming cowboy named Lance.
  • About me

    I'm a journalist who spends my Mondays through Fridays writing other people's stories, a chronic procrastinator who needs structure. I once quit my job to write a book and like most writers, I made up excuses why I couldn't keep at it.

    My boyfriend fiancé husband Joe (and new baby Henry) like to sleep in late on the weekends, which means I end up browsing celebrity tabloid websites while our dog snores under the covers.

    I created Lance to better spend that time. I thought maybe it would jump start a second attempt at writing a novel.

    I'm itching to get The Move On, as my dad likes to say. I'm 26 27 28 29 and I'm afraid if I don't start now, I'll get caught up in something else.

    We all do.

Who am I kidding?

15 Feb 2012

Yes, I devote an entire drawer in my fridge to chocolate. It’s the same drawer some people stick vegetables in. I call it my shnooka drawer – shnooka being a derivative of the German slang word for chocolate. My Oma has a shnooka drawer, and thus I have one too.

It’s so full I can hardly close it.

Anyone want to come over and help me empty it?

    LOVE the Chiavetta’s in there too…. did you find it there, or is it from “home”?

    I have a big plastic tub full of Reese’s miniatures. I can only find them in American stores in a couple big cities here, so I stock up each and every time I visit.
    I’ll bring over some local “specialties” if you let me dig in there :)

    The Chiavetta’s is imported from Western New York, as is the Timmy Ho’s we’re currently out of. It’s a sad day in the Bardi house when we’ve got to crack open a bag of off-brand Colombian coffee.

    Up until Sunday I had a secret stash of chocolate myself. I’m currently on a health kick and I threw everything in the garbage. GARBAGE. I thought I’d feel all powerful and awesome. I mostly just felt wasteful.

    I’m waiting for PMS to hit and severe regret to kick in. Possibly tears. Time will tell.

    Also – I don’t know what Chiavetti’s is. Oh and if you’re in need of Timmy Ho’s, I’ll hook you up. Let me know. We have one about every 500 feet my town. No joke.

    You’re out of Tims? Five O-Clock it is then? Your drawer is out of control, I wish I could come and eat some with you–after a long bikeride or some laps at the pool. Miss you tons!

    That’s hilarious and impressive. Now all you need is some oreos.

    This is awesome! The only reason I couldn’t do this is because it wouldn’t last long enough to continue being a chocolate drawer. Then I’d just be chubby with an empty produce drawer…

    I just want to point out that the Hershey Bars right at the top are mine — But they are also the only chocolate in the drawer belonging to me.

    That’s awesome! Think everyone should have a drawer for chocolate!
