My First Soup

I’ve been trying to expand my cooking abilities bit by bit. You all know of my rib prowess by now, but I can do more than that. I’ve been known to make a decent chocolate cake (though I don’t really care for deserts), and I’m generally pretty handy in the kitchen as a fine sous […]

America, F*ck Yea!

I was feeling a tad blah still about Tuesday’s elections, and I needed a pick-me-up.
