two twenty-nine
On Leap Day, 2012… Roux watched the birds and squirrels from inside the screen door. We heard the doves: bee DOO, doooo, doooo. I learned about vocal fry, which I’m fairly certain I’m guilty of. Justin made my coffee with plenty of sugar and cream, just how I like it. I stretched, because I’m old […]

The things I think about…
Tonight I am sitting on the couch, listening to Andrew Bird’s new album and feeling tipsy on life. Tonight I am remembering our October trip to New England years ago. Seeing billions of red and yellow leaves for the first time ever, and crying at their beauty. Stopping on the side of the road for […]

Weekend Moments
Hi guys! I made another video of tiny moments of my weekend. I tried to keep each clip really short, so it would just be a kind of glimpse at things. Details: On Friday we met friends at Nubian Queen Lola’s for dinner. We shared gumbo with cornbread. I had the best fried catfish and […]

Oh, hi!
Internets! I’ve been away. There’s been a lot of this going on (see above), but I think I have finally come ’round the bend, and am feeling better. It’s been a rough winter, but thanks to help from lots of friends and family and docs, I believe the worst of it is over. I’m still […]

Randoms
This is Bela, the neighborhood cat. He comes to visit us a lot. * Â * Â * Â * Â * Â * Today I felt like cooking. Brunch was leftover cornbread dressing, made into patties and pan-fried, topped with fried eggs. Dinner was conchas cooked with a bit of leftover bean broth and tomatoes, topped with cheese and […]

Monday things
It’s been a busy week for me (but not for Roux). My book signing/sale at the downtown farmers’ market went swimmingly – afterward I was completely pooped out, and my cheeks were sore from smiling so much! I’ve been reading An Everlasting Meal (still), the latest Lucky Peach, my copy of the first issue of Kinfolk, […]
