This was seriously done and drafted but here we are, another year, same as the last. 🍴: Mon – Farro Risotto With Sauteed Mushrooms and Fennel — sliced the fennel instead of wedging for my texture preferences, sliced the mushrooms instead of chopping to make them more meaty, and added some Aleppo and ACV for

In honor of Mrs. Jones and Auntie Una, Flat 493 (now in a house) reinstated our New Year’s Day tradition last year.

🍴: Mon – leftover pork tenderloin and Hampton-made baked Rancho Gordos, salad Tues – Twisted Pine with a Seagull castmate.

🍴: Mon – rehearsal after dance class = forgettable leftover for a late dinner Tues – Arby’s in the car on the way to PA Wed – Davis family dinner, traditional Thanksgiving style. I did not feel like coming up with something the kids would eat, so decided on this salad to use up sweet

🍴: Mon – Hampton had to be at auditions before I got home from dance class, so, as per usual when cooking solo, I attempted to recreate my favorite seafood antipasti from a restaurant that no longer exists in D.C. I was so ready to eat I had my arugula salad while cooking and it

Yesterday was a very important anniversary — it’s been 40 years since Calvin and Hobbes came bounding into our lives, questioning how the world works and embracing the surreal. More celebrations here and here. I was the same age as Calvin when he premiered, and ten years later, by the time of that last printed
