Autumn. You have to enjoy it in Missouri, because you only get a week. Joking, joking. Still, is there anything more reminiscent of fall than squash? Probably. But this meal has been in our rotation for awhile. It’s vegan, it’s balanced, it’s just kind of warm, in a hard to explain way. Michael and I [...]

After the storms have leveled [...]

Today I was looking through the most popular movies in various categories on Netflix’s website, trying to find new things to add to my queue. These are the 4 most popular “classic” films of all time according to Netflix’s data — which is pretty darn good, as data goes. Surely I’m not the only person [...]

When you go to a friend’s place for dinner, how do they greet you? Are they standing looking bored at a counter, or are they engaged – in the kitchen attending to food or at the bar chatting with other friends? Do they call out hello when they see you? Do they remember how you take [...]

From The New York Times today: The outbreak is yet more evidence that Zimbabwe’s most fundamental public services — including water and sanitation, public schools and hospitals — are shutting down, much like the organs of a severely dehydrated cholera victim. Am I the only person that thinks this is in poor taste?
