Bookseller, baker, ricotta-cheese maker. I'm a reader, a wannabe writer, have a mothballed J.D., and am little bit crazy. These are the days of my lives.

We bloggers have bloggy friends (i.e., friends who we make through blogs), non-bloggy friends (i.e., people we know from “real life”) and now, friends who blog. Real life friends, now new and improved, with blogs. My section mate and good friend from law school has begun his blog, Senor Sinister’s Low Key Plan for World […]

The BH’s colleague, Amy, who I’ve written about before, makes beautiful mosaic mirrors, boxes, and other crafty things under the name Riverview Crafters, is hosting a craft show at her home November 15, 2–8 pm. There will also be woven, leather, ceramic, and other textile and printed crafts. The Better Half, because he is a […]
Thanks so much to all who came to Saturday’s social. Lots of laughs, way too much ice cream, and the weather held out. I’ve got some pictures and obviously a more detailed story up my sleeve, but am going to be busy at work today. More soon. (And perhaps I can even get PictoBrowser to […]
June 28, that is. Just a reminder. Here’s the original announcement. I am still checking out picnic sites and places with parking. Details, soon, I promise! In the meantime, stock up on beach blankets, sunscreen, and charge those camera batteries!

Poodelate. Well, it made sense at the time.
Revolufried? We couldn’t decide if it meant some newfangled frier machine that revolves, or some wonderful new fried food that was so revolutionary that it was, well, revolufried! (And really, it’s all my fault, because I was the one who played Wii on the second turn and got the […]

Green Couscous Salad, originally uploaded by BipolarLawyerCook.
I made this for a BBQ our friends A. and P. threw. Quite yummy– we chowed it all down while the boys went out for more propane.
Take some israeli couscous (pastina would work fine, too), cooked 15 min. in olive oil and double the amount of water. Put […]

I am not a gardener. My proudest accomplishment is not killing the Spawn of Larry the Jade Plant, a jade plant at my brother-in-law’s work the size of a triceratops. But I have always helped my Dad plant his garden, and harvesting’s not a problem– I am a cook, a former CSA sharer, and […]

She makes things like the box, below, and I’ve seen them in person– they’re beautiful and unusual. Amy’s a talented artist– she also has her priorities right and has insisted that the […]

I had the chance to meet up with Sara of Moving Right Along (and her equally amazing friends Dena and Sylvia) on Sunday at my own Jamaica Plain’s Arnold Arboretum. Sara got to break in her new prosthetic leg, earned with battle scars after her most recent cancer-go-round, […]
