Jeez. It's been a long time since I looked over here.

Inappropriate? Yes AND No.

Yogadork recently wrote about how Yoga Journal caught heat from the Universal Society of Hinduism’s Rajan Zed. Zed took great umbrage with their satirical “Ogden: Inappropriate Yoga Guy” web series. To be sure, Ogden is a caricature of all the worst you’ll find in modern yoga: a creepy ( Read more... ) -

I haven't been blogging much, but it doesn't mean I haven't been writing.
My first food column ran yesterday in the Jackson Free Press. It's called Salad Days: Avoiding Lettuce Burnout, and includes recipes for a deconstructed pesto salad and a cookout-friendly Grilled Caesar.

Everything is just too, too much. I'm bare-nerved and overexposed and the need to "hug the midline" is overriding even my geekery and love for the LJness. -
Gratitude

It’s strange to be writing this at this moment: we’re at the end of a sort of feline hospice care for my eldest cat, Jack. He’s sixteen, and has been an excellent friend to me for all of my adult life. He’s been a great judge of character, and he’s loved Matthew from the very start. It ( Read more... )
