Time to introduce myself here. I’m a gen-x chef, teacher & author. I write about food but I love to make people laugh. Esp now. I’m queer, married and very political. Interested in food justice & eating the rich 4 snacks. I play guitar (ok) & online chess (suck). Aprendiendo español. You go.
My wife and I have a star rule. If for some reason one of us just happens to be propositioned by the star of our choice for a night (never to be forgotten) it’s 100% ok. Totally unrelated I’m a huge fan of Cate Blanchett.

My dad just sent me off to the Tampa airport at 5:30 am with a homemade breakfast sandwich he surprised me with and I honestly feel like the luckiest 50-something year old daughter in the world. He has not always been like this. Sappy octogenerian Arnold is kinda the best.

Can someone explain to me how loving MAGA America, wrapping yourself in Republicanism and the flag, patriotism and GO U.S.A. also means defunding the fuck out of the Veteran's Administration? My wife is an intern social worker there and we have some questions.

Cooked a 6 course meal last night for 12 that began as a surprise birthday party and ended with the host taking a knee and surprising everyone with a proposal to her girlfriend. Tears and much needed joy all around.

Life imitating art. Also is it obvious we are obsessed with our pets? Also now that we’ve all gone mad, the pets they don’t judge.

I feel like we’re not asking the right questions re: the mysterious deaths of Gene Hackman & Betsy Arakawa, namely: why was their dead dog found in a bathroom closet?
