let me tell you about a meal i had.

Last night, Georgia and I went to the restaurant Vedge, which just opened in Center City. The owner/chefs of Vedge had another restaurant that I regrettably never made it to before its closing over the summer, and I was determined not to make the same mistake twice. The entire menu here is vegan.

saturday night pizza.

So lately I’ve been finding myself putzing around the kitchen more often than usual. I made my first (!) apple pie a few nights ago, and it was consumed in record time, leaving me no time for documentation. Last night, I decided to a small pizza for Kathryn and myself.  To my dismay, the bell [...]

Kathryn and I have been taking care of our friend’s cat for a few days. His name is Tea. He’s deaf, so he doesn’t wake up from sleep unless you pet him or walk past him very closely. Tea is a living, breathing marshmallow-cloud hybrid. I’d say he’s an angel, but he has a habit [...]

Hi, I hope you all enjoyed your 4th of July weekend if you celebrated! As for me, my birthday was yesterday and I had a blast being surrounded with friends the entire weekend, including a very special bunch that came from out of town. I also received some really wonderfully thoughtful presents. I wasn’t expecting [...]
