You really don’t want to get me started, so here’s the nitty gritty: Black. Female. Nomad. Single. Child-free. Hip-Hopper. Charmer. Nerd. Fabulous. Life is good. More →
I struggled for months to think of how to re-approach this blog, my blog, a summary of some of the best years of my life, in words. And finally, I am just going to start. Again. No grand entrance, no re-cap of the last 18 months other than to say that I worked, I played, [...]

Today is my 35th Birthday. Maybe if I say or type that enough times it’ll sink in. Today is my thirty-fifth birthday. Nope. It’s still surreal. I cannot wrap my head around the fact that I am 15 years from 20 years old and 15 years from being 50 years old. I’m closer to middle-age [...]

Despite the fiasco that was The Oyster Incident of 2008, I ventured forth and took another cooking class (#247) with two of my favorite colleagues, CJ (Left) and Bubbles (R).

1. We got 6-8 more inches last night. Of snow, you pervs! I basically just gave up and went into the office an hour late in jeans and a sweatshirt. 2. I pulled a muscle in my thigh/groin. Unfortunately, not via any activity that would make such pain worth it. 3. I’m going to the [...]

Let me just admit that I am flabbergasted. Really, just not even able to process the amount of snow there is up here. Inches, feet, piles and drifts. Blankets of snow, hiding sheets of ice. I never thought I could be tired of snow, but I am.so.ready. for spring. Bygones.
Read more →Happy belated Valentine’s day yall! I was up to the usual ridicularity. I had hibachi with KJ, Charles and Papaya, drank some beer and fell asleep with visions of sugar plums dancing in my head (or maybe I was drunk!..just kidding). In a fit of unmitigated domesticity I baked mini-cupcakes for friends and colleagues! I [...]
