Happy Presidents’ Day!
If you’re wondering what presidential life and history was like before Twitter, check out:
- the Smithsonian’s Presidents Tour (because you know you want to see what George Washington looked like with his shirt off😉
- the Google Arts & Culture’s Presidents’ Day Collection, or
- (slightly off topic but what the heck) use this Telegraph article to familiarize yourself with Hamilton (the musical and, by extension, one of the founders who got this whole shebang rolling).
Because democracy didn’t just miraculously happen and, sadly, is not guaranteed.
Happy Happy!

Target: Caaaakkkkeeee!!!!!
Another year, another cake:) For this year’s birthday I wanted a little visual contrast, plus a way to use the last of summer’s fruit. Also, pretty. I went with that classic good time, chocolate, and a buttercreamcheese frosting.
Two layers, baked and cooled and torted to make four. To shake things up a bit, I added a thin coating of raspberry jam before frosting the first and third layers, to bring out a touch of fruit flavor. Crumb coat. Thick frosting top. Chocolate ganache trim, topped with blackberries, raspberries, blueberries, and mint, with a buttercream flower to wrap it all up.
Cutting it was scary, but worth it.
So tasty!
Gone Fishing

Oh hello there! It’s been a while since I’ve posted, as apparently I have gone fishing. Not literally, at least not yet, but in the sense that my mind has decided that it’s time for a summer vacation. I’m still working, both on writing and other things, but it seems I needed a little break and I’m taking it here.
Remember what summer meant when the last school bell rang and the doors opened on whole months of freedom and possibility? I’m feeling a little of that right now, and dang it, I’m going to enjoy it. I hope you are too!
