  • What type of yarn are you? Ewww, I’m mohair! (That’s nearly as bad as when my sister’s hubby got sorted into Hufflepuff at a Warner Brothers event. Heh. Carbo’s a badger.) My favorite part of the yarn quiz is the completely random Christian Slater movie question.

    DietBlog: Holy crap. I’ve officially lost 10% of my body weight! I was actually 100 grams short when I first got weighed, but my group leader Emily insisted I step up again – this time without my shoes – so I could cross the proverbial line into double digits. I was awarded a little gold…
