Author Eats.

Feast your eyes on Wendy MacNaughton's illustrations for the New York Times Book Review piece, "Snacks of the Great Scribblers."



My writing fuel of choice? Cherry pie, cinnamon toast, Billy's banana cupcakes, anything with Nutella on it - guess Lord Byron and I would've been ill-suited work buddies.

Bye For Now, NYC.

Early tomorrow, I'll be bidding New York adieu for a week and heading to Martha's Vineyard for some beach time with my family. (And to celebrate my birthday!)

I've never been, so I'm not sure what to expect, but as long as sun, sand, and some sort of delicious summer pie is involved, I'm sure I won't have any complaints! Enjoy the weekend!

Thanks, Ira. Revisiting this quote was just what I needed today.

Freaks, Geeks, and Cat Birthdays.

A die-hard Freaks and Geeks fan, I stopped in my tracks when I spotted this card, by the Great Lakes Goods, in a local boutique.


I'm also a fan of this one...



...and this one. I'm not sure what a "cat birthday" entails, (besides perfection, apparently), but I'd love to find out!

Sweet Thing: Pies 'n' Thighs.

I had apple pie at Pies 'n' Thighs for breakfast this morning.



Said pie was resting atop a giant slice of cheddar cheese: an ideal combination of salty and sweet. Be still my heart.
