Stuff Yuppies Like: Portlandia Live Tour Reaches...
Also appearing on Borderstan later this week, I get my op-ed on and review Portlandia Live’s recent show at DC’s 930 Club. A packed crowd of bespeckeled yuppies clapped eagerly as Carrie Brownstein and Fred Armisen, of the IFC hit show, Portlandia, took the stage this past Tuesday night at the 930 Club for two sold out performances. Their “Portlandia Live” tour takes a variety...

Where ya been??
On vacation for the last week is actually the answer. But, in no particular order, there are a bunch of *awesome things* that I’d like to blog about, but have been too lazy busy enjoying to actually stop and write. It’s a vicious cycle. Anyway, here are some cliff notes: Have like 93,849,385 photos from CassouletFest2011, New Years, various roommate cooking endeavors and other good...

It’s a little weird to not be going home for Thanksgiving this year, but between a line up of a friend’s wedding, Friendsgiving dinner tomorrow AND Moombahton Massive IX at U Hall, I’m actually pretty excited to stick around DC this weekend. If you’re staying in town, here’s your Borderstan Guide to Thanksgiving Night Out. Because you know, after the turkey...

Sweet Potato & Fig Lasagna
Due to an influx of dinner guests and fall vegetables in my life, I’ve been making more time to cook recently, which I’m very happy about. I’m reminded how much I love cooking and how much more “in control” I feel over my life, what I’m eating, packing for lunch and clearing out of my fridge when I make the time for it. Very satisfying. So this weekend I had some college...
