A letter to M.

Recently, I did something I’ve really been avoiding for awhile now. I was so hesitant, not wanting to exploit myself by joining the four frillion other people who have done this already. But inevitably, I succumbed to the pressure … and created a myspace page. I know, I know. Ick. One might ask, “Why do [...]

Perhaps I’ve been high on tryptophan these last couple days because somehow I managed to write two – count ‘em TWO! – reviews. And I didn’t feel all stressed out about them either. It was as if the words just flowed from my fingertips to the keyboard and onto the screen. Well, maybe it wasn’t [...]
Mise en place

There is really nothing like the aroma of mirepoix wafting through the house. Something about the onions, carrots and celery all cooking down together just smells like home and the holidays.Of course, what I could also be smelling right now is the 17-pound bacon-topped turkey beginning to brown in the oven.Yep, that’s right. We bought [...]

Another really cool thing about living in a big city is being able to go to a lot of concerts. We started off by getting tickets to see Coldplay in August – before we even knew for sure we could make the move happen. Luckily, it all worked out and the show was awesome (even [...]
This is the sound of Seattle-ing

Tomorrow marks our four-month anniversary of becoming Seattle-ites. I got to thinking last week when I was deliriously lost in the Green Lake area that in four month’s time, I should have already mastered the art of getting home from work. But no. I took a detour and wound up driving around Green Lake several [...]
Supposed update

Again, with the lack of posting. I’m starting to worry myself that I will never get out of the writer block funk. Of course, this pressure to post to three different blogs is completely self imposed. But still. Every time I think about writing something – either a review or a personal post – I [...]
Brotherly love

My baby brother turned 24 today. Sometimes it seems weird to refer to him as a baby, especially now that we’re both clearly adults, and he is inches taller than me. But he will always be that little guy to me. The one with the big brown eyes and wavy blond hair. The one who [...]
Drunken debauchery

In retrospect, maybe last night wasn’t such a great idea, eh? Let’s just say that it all went downhill after I posted. I became very intimate with my toilet (thus discovering mold around the edges, ew!). There was also an incident with the fridge in which the whole door shelf and its contents fell off [...]

Y’all probably thought that the reason I haven’t posted much around here is because I’ve been writing up a storm for Blogcritics or Emerald City Eats, huh? That I’ve been churning out pages and pages of all kinds of reviews of movies and music and food. Well, y’all thought wrong. After I posted on Monday [...]

- I know it's the top news story in Seattle but I cannot bear to watch coverage of what happened to the Powell boys today. So, so sad.
