I have barely recovered from the trip back from Cape May, but I finally feel ready to make a few recommendations regarding food. It is a fantastic little town, perfect for a weekend getaway. I do not recommend driving there on a long weekend lest something akin to removing your kidney with a rusty fork [...]

“I am never driving anywhere again!”, declared SuperBoy yesterday.
This declaration came about 7 hours in to our 10 hour journey home yesterday.
His six-year-old mouth is allowed to utter words my 27-year-old one could not, but yes. I agree with him. I never want to be in a car again. The open road can [...]

Shannon asks:
Can you please recommend a tasty salsa recipe that isn’t tomato-centered or boring, but isn’t so bizarre that my friends’ kids will refuse to eat it? Bonus points if there’s watermelon involved, as that’s on special at Safeway and I’m a horrid cheapskate.

I cannot actually eat at my favorite Thai restaurant in DC. I love the food, the menu, the location. I quite love everything about it except it is the place where dreams go to die. The place is a black hole for happiness and I avoid it all costs. In fact, it’s name cannot [...]

Last Thursday, Betty Joan, EJ and I had a hot girl date and plan was to go balls out. Betty Joan moves to Atlanta in a few weeks (that was just a stifled sob you heard from me emitted over the tubes) and EJ is spending the summer doing VERY IMPORTANT THINGS to further [...]

Detox

Limoncello and Cloverfield. That was how last night was spent. 
I am currently in Florida visiting family. My skin is radiating an uncomfortable amount of heat and I am positive I have guaranteed myself a skin cancer diagnosis about 10 years from now.  Apparently, the lesson of reapplication of sunscreen has not been adequately drilled in [...]
