Loaf in the Time of Cholera: Uzbek Non
The other day, I got an email from my web host telling me that I was about to auto-pay for another two years. I pay a shocking amount of money to keep my various dormant blogs alive, so I probably…
Itsy Bitsy Adorable Brownies for Taipeiren (and Me) from KP Kitchen
Chúc mừng năm mới, y’all! Today is the blissfully silent, empty first day of Tet and Saigon has emptied out and shut down almost completely, with the ever-banging construction sites falling silent and the manic roads looking pleasingly post-Apocalyptic. Pollution…
You Need More Chocolate Zucchini Bread in Your Life (and Tummy)
This post has been open in my tabs for nearly half a year. Seriously. It’s that bad. This little sleepy southern corner of Saigon is the new land of the lotus eaters, with watermelon juice and pho replacing the druggy lôtos.…

The wind is just howling out there. Last night, I was kept up until the uncivilized hours by the noise of it just whipping around the building, slamming against the balcony that juts out, catching on the corner. Being on…
Spicy, buttery rearranged cheese biscuits
Apparently I’ve been on hiatus. I popped by here yesterday to update my plug-ins and noticed I hadn’t done anything in two whole months. You’d think I was starving to death or something. Which I was, for a while.…
Killing My Crock Pot Softly With Yeast Breads
