Creative technologist, epicurean, and dreamer. Makes stuff, cooks stuff, and thinks (mostly about art, autism and food :p).
Passed a big Dunkin’ on the trip back from Charlotte. Apparently, they like their coffee *strong* in the city… :p

Introducing the chocolate buttermilk truffle biscuit.
Soft and buttery with a gently crisp, marbled exterior and rich fudge center.
Gluten-free, and hot out of the oven. ;)

Three wildfires just east of where I live. Maybe rain on Sunday. If you’re local, have your go-bag ready.

Homemade adobo base with a ring of minced-garlic skyr, caramelized onions sautéed alongside bell peppers and broccoli florets, fresh salmon, and a smooth blend of aged white cheddars and butterkäse.

Hmm. Looks like I’m now the proud owner of 200ml of balsamic liquid-candy tooth enamel stripper. :p
