Sick & Twisted…
Sick and twisted fart fun with the Pillsbury Doughboy. You know, you just can’t help but press the squishy spot on his tummy. [via Chris V., a programmer at work]
Top Twenty…
Your website’s so ugly, Jakob Nielsen likes it. Oh, that’s good … that’s really good. Visit Davezilla for the rest of the Top Twenty Blogger Insults list! (But answer my survey first if you haven’t already…)
Let’s Talk about Blogs…
I’ve been busily working behind the scenes to tweak different things here and there and I realized a few things that I wanted the feedback of other people on. I realize that ultimately it’s my blog, but I was thinking it would be an interesting study in what users really like, what they use, [...]
What? I Can’t Hear You…
Wow. New traffic coming today from all over. It truly warms my heart. And for everyone passing through – whether you’re new here or you’ve been here before – I just wanted to extend the invitation (again) to feel free to leave comments behind. The option is there because I like [...]
More Wine, Please…
Revisiting the wine story from Saturday night – when I stopped at my parent’s house earlier this evening I told them about what happened. As soon as I said that the guy was trying to find a Chardonney at the gas station my Mom started to laugh and said the same thing I did [...]
I Want Your Cookie…
In the early hours of Sunday morning as I launched the new domain name, I was fortunate enough to have Rannie to keep me company on IM. After hearing what the new name for the site was, he photographed and made me a plate full of pink cookies.
I knew I had to do something [...]
Conquering my Memory…
For 3 days I’ve been trying to remember the name of the webcam software that I used to use. I knew it started with a “C”. Was it … no. Maybe … no. What on earth is the name of that software? It’s ConquerCam. And now if I ever [...]
Monday Mission 2.30
Not only am I going to do Promo Guy’s Monday Mission early – I should be the first one doing it since I just posted it for him! Read on if you want to see the rest…

Damn, too bad I didn’t see this earlier. Probably would have helped Michele through the end of the Blogathon!
I dedicate this post to Hoopty [...]
You Can Make Your Own…
Now you can have a Big Pink Cookie of your own – Donna posted a recipe for them over at The Red Kitchen! You can check it out here! Yummm… I might just have to bake some – those sound good!
Did you change your links to BigPinkCookie.com?
Now Those are Pink…
Rannie made me some pink cookies. Then he ate them. That’s ok though, I appreciate that he’s spreading the word. Meanwhile, I entered Michele’s Blogathon contest. I’ve moved. Spread the word.
Take a Bite!
I did it.
I’m changing the name of the blog. After sleeping on it for a few nights even – so it wasn’t such a whim. Please change your links to BigPinkCookie.com.
I’ve also pulled all of the skins for the site for the time being. I’ll be making some new ones someday – [...]
Quite a Swanky Place…
I was out shopping earlier and on the way home decided to stop at the corner Exxon to pick up some Pepsi. I was standing in line to pay behind a woman cashing her lottery tickets and a man in a suit buying a bottle of wine. As he finished paying, he asked [...]
I’m a Tivotte…
I can’t deny that I absolutely love my Tivo. It knows what I want and it gets it for me. I couldn’t ask for more … or could I? I could. I want Matt’s TiVo which has a Tivo Webserver that posts his “To Do” and “Now Showing” lists every 30 [...]
Simple Happiness…
I watched Legally Blonde earlier (which I loved – again), and when it was over I decided to check out the Features. Their is a “Trivia” version of the movie – it’s like Pop-up Video for the film! The whole film, with little trivia tidbits – this is fun! Yeah, it’s a [...]

Finding Your Roots…
For some, blogging is just something you do for fun, to blow off steam, to share links, to write about your cats (hey, I do it – I’m not knocking it.) For others, they care about the history of blogging and where it’s going. I mean, you’ve seen all the articles in the [...]
Now That Wasn’t So Bad…
I finished the upgrade indoors, it was a little too dark out there to follow upgrade instructions. After I came inside, I left the TV off, turned the music on, and got on IM so that Kristine could hold my hand and guide me through upgrading my blog to be trackback enabled. She [...]
Moving MovableType…
I decided when I got home tonight that it was actually somewhat tolerable outside and I didn’t feel like I was melting after sitting on the patio for a few minutes. The view is nice, the desruptions are few, the mosquitos aren’t too bad (they tried to carry me away last weekend) so I [...]

Cookies on the Side
Hi! I'm Christine. I've been blogging here since 2000. I am married to Mike. I have a son, Jason. We have a cat, Mona. We live in Houston, Texas.
I love helping other photographers and other small business owners improve their businesses. Most of my posts here are related to that, although sometimes I write about personal things as well.
I am currently available for business & blogging consulting and assisting you with WordPress. Contact me for more details.
I am a wedding and boudoir photographer and I'm available both in Houston and for travel worldwide. I would love to be a part of your wedding!
You can buy prints of my photography.
In addition to photography and geek things, I sometimes knit. I even used to have a knitting podcast, PointySticks.
