Anthony Bourdain just called this crawfish bisque he had at a cookout “the single best God-damn thing I’ve had since El Bulli.”
I mean, bragging rights.
*Also, what does one call a person from New Orleans? New Orleansonian? Ew, no.

Holiday Season and what not
So, because I’m a total brat and our office holiday party this year is bowling and I’m an AWFUL bowler, I’ve decided to organize a holiday bake-off!
And because I’m super competitive (once again, going back to that whole brat thing), I want to WIN.
So! Here’s where you come in. Who has an impressive and homemade dessert recipe for me? What’s your go-to??

Monday Check-in... because, why not?
Obsessing over: Impending parental moves that upset me, a situation that’s upset me, this chocolate chip cookie I just ate that did not upset me.
Working on: Reports development, future requirements, self-improvement. One of these is a lie. I’m improved enough.
Thinking about: Calling my father tonight to wish him a happy 70th birthday, cleaning my apartment enough to be shown to...

A cupcake comforts. A macaron teases. Dainty, nearly weightless, it leaves you hungrier than you were before. It is but a prelude to other pleasures. Your slacker boyfriend gives you a...

We were stopped at a crosswalk waiting, and all along I'm hating on him. Anyway, then, I thinking: geez, stop giving him the stank eye, he's not the problem.
