Borscht!

Did you know beet leaves are edible? i really cannot wait until the scientists implant a Google search bar straight into my brain.

Borscht is Ukrainian for yummy. It's also really cheap to make, since we got almost all of the ingredients for $8 at the Aldi.

Also-- no chopping! You just shred any root vegetable you can get your hands on and boil it all up. I got to shred the carrots. Uh, Michelle did everything else.

Heavy Leather Hottie

my lovely friend Rachael makes a super metal cameo in the new Motorhead video.

Her new bestie Lemmy wears her amazing leather guitar straps, which you can see here. Clearly she's the most accomplished woman I know.

Farewell Tundra!

On my way down the very snowy Parks Highway to Anchorage.
