Well it's undisputed. The bake sale last Saturday was a huge success! A nice sum was raised for Share our Strength, a national program that combats childhood hunger and I was glad to help in some small way with my Nutter Fluffer Brownies Sandwiches. Nutter Fluffer sandwiches, for those not in the know, is peanut... Continue Reading →

My Sediments Exactly
There are few things that make me happy: the 10th Doctor, a cute puppy, the love of my husband and a delicious taco with a big glass of horchata. Horchata is one of those things I instinctively order at a Mexican restaurant. I'm usually a straight up "water only" person in restaurants to the despair... Continue Reading →
The Mysterious Missing Hot Dog Bread
Before I started all of this blogging business six years ago (eek, yes six), there was this fad called boba drinks. I would pop up to Kearny Mesa to grab myself a milk tea boba at the now defunct Lollicup and call it lunch. Since I was dating Paul then, I wanted to introduce these... Continue Reading →
My Milkshake Brings All The Boys to the Yard
I have a bit of a confession. I don't like drinking milkshakes.

If you've read my About Me page, I admit detest that word, especially what it has come to... Continue Reading →
Friday’s Fast-Food Fishtacular! – A&W Fish Sandwich
I was driving around Reno this time last week on a business trip (by "business" I mean "cartooning-related") and found myself approaching the intersection of Plumb and Kietzke lanes. The marquee of the corner A&W caught my eye: "BEST FISH SANDWICHES IN TOWN!" That sounded like a boastful challenge, so I decided to take them... Continue Reading →
Work is the Meat of Life
The weekends have been hectic lately. But a good kind of hectic. Busy seeing friends. Having social dinners. Running around doing scavenger hunts downtown. Working on my freelance writing and editing. Trips out of town and, of course, trying to relax for the new work week! Unfortunately, dinner takes a back seat. But I've made... Continue Reading →
