There is so much shame around money, or I should say money, just like food is so fucking emotional. At least it is for me. So just for posterity I will bold all those "emotion" words. When my wife died in 2012 I contributed equally to the household but I was not the breadwinner. See, … Continue reading You Have What You Need
I can remember when my sister-in-law told me about Instagram. Quinn and I were sitting in a nice restaurant The Baton Rouge, back when it was not a big issue to do these things. We were debating calling the little green veggies scallions or just green onions when she "Instagrammed" something. "What's Instagram?" I asked … Continue reading #poetsofinstagram
It has always driven me bonkers but my mother has always maintained that I have small ears. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that I was an earache kid and my first procedure was to have tubes put in them. I was then obliged to protect them. I remember then going to … Continue reading Tiny Mouth

However there are days when it is not so clear if I am folding into the fabric of anything, as I throw … Continue reading All Signs Point Too…
I am noticing a theme my friends. I have always known that I have a recurrent subject of cooking and food because in a major way my life revolves around menus and meals. Well of course you might say, anyone who eats may feel the same way what with the planning, shopping, cooking and eating … Continue reading Flat Potato Fry
Let me just open this post by saying The Force was definitely not with me on this! Brunch is a great meal, it is nice to have time to prepare meals on a weekend. It’s even nicer when your guests only have to commute across the driveway. The table was laid, the kid was being somewhat … Continue reading Darth Vader Disaster
