A great writing effort is only sustained by great snacks. I read that somewhere, and it sounded so much like wisdom that I remembered it. (I think it was snacks. Pretty sure.) Fortunately, there are a lot of good ones out there. Elsewise we’d be running short of great fiction any day.
And if the [...]

Dinosaurs don’t write. At least not great fiction. Except one, that is. Me.
Well, perhaps I’m fudging a bit on the “great” but not on the dinosaur part. Yes, it’s that time of year again; National Novel Writing Month is off and running! Unfortunately with this head cold, it’s running off without me. The bloody [...]

Until this evening, when things took a major turn for the worse. A [...]

My father-in-law recently had a birthday. To help him drown his sorrows celebrate, I made him some of Alton Brown’s world-famous Firecrackers. They didn’t last long, as expected. He never told me if they cured his depression made his day, but the way they disappeared…
Since I was messing up the kitchen anyway, I went [...]

This fellow isn’t trying a new method of traveling incognito. Nor is he a space alien. (At least not according to the Men in Black.) Instead, this is Professor Takuji Naumi, making a point. Using his new invention, the Meta Cookie.

More than a year ago I introduced you to the spicy saltines craze. Since then I’ve mentioned a variation or two. They’re ridiculously easy to make, and even easier to make disappear. They go great with most any snack.
Their only drawback: They ain’t no stinkin’ diet [...]
