random: whoa!
So I’m walking the aisles of my local Safeway yesterday after work looking for pomegranate juice. I was of a mind to make Pomegranate Cosmos* per one of my kitchen muses. I’ve gone back and forth between the produce area...
in DC: allergen masochist
I’ve been in DC over 10 years, and I go each year. I know what they look like, I’ve seen them in rain and shine, and it still doesn’t matter. You have to see the Cherry Blossoms. Even though ever...
