Nobody walks in LA*

Posted on May 29, 2008 | Category: Uncategorized | 7 Comments

I was all prepared to complain about having to be in Los Angeles this week for work, how even though I spent most of my life in California, I’ll never associate LA with the concept of home, and how yes, I’m totally with the mouthy kid behind me on the flight who kept saying to [...]

And everybody will ask what became of you

I’ve been feeling sort of paralyzed lately. Paralyzed by work, because of probable impending changes to my cush job, an overflowing e-mail in-box, and an upcoming trade show in LA next week for which I am solely responsible. Paralyzed by the internet, because of this ridiculous self-imposed pressure to keep current when all I want [...]

The outside thermometer read 90 degrees today. I don’t know about y’all, but a number that high is just begging for some sweet tea.

You can do better than me, but I can’t do better than you

I can’t remember the last time – or really, any time, for that matter – I heard an album for the first time, and it moved me to tears. But that’s exactly what happened this morning upon hearing Death Cab for Cutie’s new one Narrow Stairs. I was actually glad to hit rare early morning [...]

Last summer, Roth and I belonged to a CSA, and because my friend Gabby was the CSA manager, she often called on us for recipes, tips and ideas to include in the weekly newsletter that went out to all members. One such recipe we provided was for spicy garlic rapini, a vegetable that proved difficult [...]

It probably goes without saying, but we ate a lot of crap while we were in Memphis. Fried catfish. Hush puppies. French fries. In fact, I do believe I managed to eat fries with every single meal. Which in theory sounds awesome, but in reality, is actually quite disgusting, especially ’round meal number four, when [...]

Memphis hell

I suppose it’s time I actually write something about Memphis, seeing as it’s our last day here. You’re probably thinking I’ve been so busy having such a fabulous time, eating great food and taking lots of pictures, that I just haven’t had time to stop and blog. Well, you’d be wrong. I guess I’ve been [...]

I was always a special child, circuit boards for my insides

Last week, when I was feeling down, Roth surprised me with his killer cure-all mashed potatoes. I gotta tell ya, there’s nothing like some butter-laden starch to dull the pain of a crappy day. Then, having sensed I was having yet another bad day, Roth came home with the fixings for s’mores last night. I [...]
