Potentially funny thoughts from a local comic
My Stupidly Impassioned Speech: Here’s the start of my stupidly impassioned speech (I usually avoid writing these, but this hit me hard): I moved to Raleigh at the end of 2003. The Sawmill Taproom was my tavern because it was within walking distance from the house on a small court where I rented a room…
I have a huge confession to make to you, dear reader. I have a guilty pleasure: food and diet blogs. Not the ones where they post 2,000 words about a 3-ingredient recipe and post pictures of the spatula from every angle. And not the ones where they talk about giving up caffeine or beer (who…

I am having so much fun with Hello Fresh! These boxes are kind of like vegetarian cooking lessons, except I don’t have to stand around in a class with an annoying instructor and wear a stupid apron. My next attempt at Hello Fresh was Chickpea-Powered Mediterranean Couscous. Again, it was an easy “bowl.” Many of…
