May 9, 2012

I had a revelation the other day as I was about to purchase yet another gorgeous vegetarian cookbook.  This particular one was written by a beautiful thin healthy looking French woman about my age.  The sun was shining on the day they shot the cover and she was radiant.  Walking through her country garden in [...]

The plane swirled over the bay as the mist hung close to the headlands.  It landed softly in San Francisco and  for the first time in a year in a half I was “home”.  But I wasn’t home.  SF hasn’t been home for almost two years now.  But because I’ve still had my flat there, [...]

After a massive Thanksgiving with my family in Texas with way too much food, I was not even mentally ready for Christmas.  Usually I don’t have to worry about Christmas dinners since I don’t celebrate the holiday and Christmas consists of a movie and Chinese food.  But the last two years I have been lucky [...]
