🍽️: Mon – Goi Tom (Vietnamese shrimp salad.) (I will actually write about this vacation eventually, I swear.) Tues – easy pork tenderloin with a stupid good Frankensauce (courtesy of sauce king Hampton) and Warm Green Bean Salad with Crispy Potatoes, kalamatas, and feta Wed – Arayes (Middle Eastern Meat Stuffed Pitas) with cucumber salad…

🍽️: Mon – Hampton was away a few days so I got to putz around on my own. Used up a bag of frozen scallops and some frozen mango for a take on skewers from this list, plus a salad made of charred corn and sugar snap peas, avocado, pickled peppers, and leftover rice. Tues…

Late this time for the best of reasons — new rehearsals! (scroll down for details 🤗) 🍴: Mon – SautĂ©ed Chicken Ă la Ronsard. Pretty sure I’ve never made a sauce that was strained? So easy/fancy/French brasserie at home. Tues – SCM bavette with pan-roasted duck fat potatoes and attempt at these feta-bakes brussels. As…

Welp, between tech for RAGTIME and Hampton going back into rehearsals for his COVID- and ice-delayed show, dinners this week were much more on the “get it done” side. EXCEPT: octopus. I had almost definitely never tried octopus before Hampton…

One of our regular Phoenix Theatre Co. castmates (and half of #jessip) has written his first full-length play, and we’re performing it this weekend at the Greensboro Fringe Festival. President Elect imagines what it would have been like on Election Night ’92 — 1892, that is — if today’s news industry existed then, as Grover…
